It's not long now until the start of our Pelvic and Abdominal Scarring & Full Body Integration course. - Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork therapists, why not join us on the 28th - 30th November in London?

Our in-person training focuses on understanding and treating the pelvic and abdominal region — one of the most emotionally and structurally significant areas of the body. You’ll explore how surgical and injury-based scars can influence breathing, posture, and integration across the fascial network.

You will also learn the importance of full body integration once the scars have been worked on; restore a sense of cohesion to your clients and help them optimise their mobility and ROM.

This specialist course is for qualified Sharon Wheeler’s ScarWork therapists only. Take your ScarWork to the next level and develop your confidence working with any scar and any postural distortion.

Major adhesions after pelvic/abdominal surgery, such as a 'tummy tuck', DIEP flap surgery, hemi-colectomy etc, may cause you to feel like this inside. This can manifest as altered posture as fascial restrictions develop internally, often creating a bent-over posture it feels impossible for you to counteract.

Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork is renowned for gently unravelling the tension in restricted fascia and affected muscles and organs, and for helping to free compressed nerves and blood vessels, usually helping clients to stand straight again as well as improve movement and function.

If you're feeling like this inside, don't give up hope. Find a therapist who does Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork and start to address the problem today.

If you are a therapist and have a client who is suffering, learn how to help them by training in this life-changing work.

Do you understand the importance of working on your clients' scars? Take a look at the case below and decide whether you can afford not to train in this work which is sweeping the world!

Body in Harmony Director, Jan Trewartha, recently came back from a trip to China, where she was teaching Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork techniques to a large group of therapists, surgeons, doctors and physiotherapists.

The gentleman in the ''before and after treatment' images below was one of her demonstration scar models. He is a farmer, very fit and active, but he had open heart surgery a few years ago. Since then he has been feeling increasingly dyspnoeic and with rapidly decreasing ROM.

After Jan worked on him there were many noticeable differences, including:

- a visibly improved expansion of his upper body
- improved definition and mobility in his shoulders and arms
- reduced rotation of the abdomen to the left
- shape change of the costal margin of the rib cage
- improved breathing

It is always a joy to help restore someone's mobility and function - with ScarWork it doesn't take long for the scar and the surrounding tissues to change.

Imagine you could do this work! Then imagine the difference you could make to your clients' health, mobility and functionality.

Our next course is in North London, April 17 - 20. Click here to find out more about Sharon Wheeler's Scarwork - https://www.bodyinharmony.org.uk/fascia-training-courses/sharon-wheelers-scarwork-course

This week Jan has been with the originator of ScarWork, Sharon Wheeler, as Sharon created archive footage working on a model with a complex scar, and completed a major video project around her BoneWork. It's been a fascinating time watching her work and - always - learning yet more from her.

"This morning was the first time I had looked at my right glute since you demonstrated skidding [our 'Skidding' technique] around that hip scar and I am thrilled at the difference you have made! Alongside all the other work I had from the group, I am feeling and walking like a new woman!"

This is why ScarWork is so important. It is a gentle, effective method for treating scar tissue. It uses specific, light touch techniques designed to regenerate mobility, improve appearance, and restore sensation in and around scars with clients often reporting lasting change and emotional release.

Because the fascia of the body is continuous, without layers, connecting all structures, limbs, organs, etc together, it is inevitable that a scar in one part of the body, as it tensions the fascia that surrounds it, can and usually will create a cascade of disruption throughout the body, to a greater or lesser extent. Thus, you may experience pain or limited mobility in your left shoulder – would you naturally suspect that the scar on your right foot might be contributory?

Here at Body in Harmony Training, we teach our students to think ‘full body’, looking at compensation patterns and reduced mobility in the context of the scarring.

Find out more about us, the work we do and the courses we run by visiting our website - https://www.bodyinharmony.org.uk/. Get ready to understand emotional responses to scar release and adapt your approach for different client needs and bodies.

What will I learn?
You will develop your skill in a small group, and advance your understanding of how the body responds to ScarWork and how to get the best from the tissue.

Why should I attend?
If there are blind spots in your knowledge. Or you may have had little practice so far, either through lack of opportunity or low confidence.

A HUGE opportunity: invitation for free ScarWork with Sharon Wheeler herself!

We invite someone with complex scarring who would love to be worked on for a couple of hours by Sharon Wheeler, the originator of ScarWork, free of charge. N.B. You must not have had any kind of scar therapy to your scar/s previously.

Please note that this session, which will not show your face or identify you, will be videoed and shown at a private Sharon Wheeler’s ScarWork event which will be raising funds for our research into the efficacy of ScarWork and the science behind it. After the event we will eventually be uploading the recording to www.scarwork.com where ScarWork teachers and students can access it for a reasonable fee, again to generate funds for our research.

We are currently funding an exciting piece of research, and we are now starting to consider the next project. We would therefore need your permission, prior to the session, for your recording to be used for this purpose. If you are happy to be a scar model with this usage in mind, you would be asked to sign a consent form in advance.

Date: 28 or 29 October, Ealing, London.

If you would like to apply, please contact jan@bodyinharmony.org.uk soonest, with details of your scar/s, clear full colour photographs with no identifying marks/details (for your privacy) and a brief description of how your scar/s affect/s you. Thank you.
