C-section Awareness Month 💚

A C-section is a major abdominal surgery… and your scar deserves more than “just let it heal.”

Scar tissue can impact:
• core connection
• pelvic floor function
• mobility and posture
• pain and sensitivity

In this video, I’m using the to support scar healing.

This technique uses gentle negative pressure to:
✨ stimulate lymphatic flow
✨ reduce swelling and inflammation
✨ improve circulation and oxygenation
✨ soften scar tissue and adhesions
✨ restore tissue mobility

At Envision, this is just one piece of the puzzle.
We combine tools like LymphaTouch with:
💚 hands-on manual therapy (including visceral manipulation)
💚 targeted exercise and core retraining
💚 education so you understand your body and healing

Because true healing after a C-section is about restoring how your body feels and functions, not just how the scar looks.

If you’ve had a C-section, it’s never “too late” to address your scar.

Preparing for abdominal surgery? Your recovery can start before your procedure 💚

Here are a few pelvic PT tips to support healing:

🤍 Build a bowel routine early → helps reduce post-op constipation
🌿 Chew gum → supports digestion + bowel motility
✨ Start gentle movement → short walks, breathing, light mobility
🤍 Use log rolling + core bracing → decrease pain with movement + coughing

You don’t have to wait until after surgery to get support 💚
A pelvic PT consult can help you feel more prepared and confident going in
