🌟C-section scar massage and rehabilitation 😊🌟

It’s beneficial to have your c-section scar assessed for many reasons including;
to help the healing of the scar and to help the movement through your abdominal muscles
and to rehabilitate your abdominal muscles well 😊🙌.

Here is a lovely review from a recent client who’s C-section scar I assessed. I then provided massage & mobilisation to the scar and abdominal wall and then provided some appropriate exercises to help the tone and tension through the abdominal wall 😊.

🌟C-section recovery kits are also available 😃🌟

🌟My hamstring injury rehab! 😃🙌🌟

In July I was out for a morning run and I tripped over a tree root 🌳on the canal 😖ouch!!
I made sure I didn’t fall onto my hands (to protect them 😊) and used my glutes and hamstring to pull me back up to stand.
Due to the intense sudden power and force needed to do this 💥 I strained the proximal aspect of my hamstring (in the glute region).

➡️Since then I’ve been on my own rehab journey back to running 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️.

I’ve had to gain the mobility, strength and power back in my hamstring whilst maintaining good pelvic strength and control 😊🙌.

This has been a very paced process and has had to work with allowing the structures to heal 🦵.

➡️ I’ve had to focus on ways of exercising that I can do as running has always been my go to 😃. So I could strength train, bike, cross train etc. 🏋️‍♂️🚲

All while I pace back to running whilst rehabbing my hamstring.

➡️ Please note that these exercises are all examples and I’m not showing them at certain stages of my rehab and I haven’t included all of the exercises that I’ve done to increase the mobility and strength in the hamstring in the early stages.
➡️It’s also very important to know that all rehabilitation is very individualised and is not prescriptive.
➡️Rehabilitation is based on the site and the extent of the injury and your personalised goals and needs 😀👌🏼.

For your injury rehab it’s extremely beneficial to have a personalised assessment so that you can rehabilitate effectively for your specific injury and work towards your individual goals 😀✅

A Sports or Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist can help you do this 😀🙌.
