Scars are active, living tissue and they can continue to change long after surgery.
Research shows that gentle scar therapy after cancer treatment can:
🌷reduce pain
🌷improve movement
🌷support improved cosmetic outcomes

Simple daily care including gentle mobilisation, moisturising, stretching and silicone use where appropriate, helps scars stay softer and more comfortable as they heal.

I offer oncology focussed holistic scar treatments and have additional training with Restore Scar Therapy.

For anyone with scars relating to a cancer diagnosis, it’s important to have personalised guidance for your particular stage of recovery.

The more years I use clinical Pilates as a rehab tool for my patients, the more I appreciate its benefits.

Mindfulness has to be one of my favourite aspects of it. Breathing, feeling, imagining, noticing… is so profoundly important on any road to recovery 🌷

Help me to support people in our local community with a cancer diagnosis!
Australia are a beneficiary of the Dry July campaign this year and funds raised help Cancer Rehab Physiotherapists, like me, to develop FREE rehab programs for people with a cancer diagnosis.
This is such a great cause with incredible community focussed supports!

Just having a moment of appreciation for my favourite night time compression garment! 🫶🏻

The Haddenham Comfiwave is a compression garment designed specifically for night time use in managing lymphoedema.
Night time compression garments help maintain the reduction achieved with day time compression and prevent fluid and fibrosis build up overnight. Not everyone needs night time compression though!

It's important to note that when using compression garments, it's crucial to get the right size and fit, and it must be used alongside other important aspects of lymphoedema management. Consulting with an ALA accredited lymphedema practitioner should be the first step to proper management.
Lookup the national lymphoedema practitioners register to find us! 🌷🌷
