SCAR ReleasE WORK

For healing and balance

SCARS CREATE IMBALANCE. RELEASE WORK RETURNS BALANCE AND FLOW.

When your body creates a scar after surgery, a caesarean section birth or laparoscopy, it lays down soft tissue in a way that is haphazard and weak, creating tension and a push-pull effect through multiple layers and types of tissues.

In turn, this impacts the position and function of pelvic tissues and organs, can creating a tugging sensation and reduces flow and drainage in the tissues.

Scar Release Work uses gentle external touch and release techniques to move through the many layers of soft tissue impacted by scars, bringing comfort and balance back into the tissues, releasing tension from supporting structures, returning flow and drainage of blood and lymph fluid, and softening the scar tissue.


You can benefit from SCAR Release Work if you HAVE SCARS FROM:

  • Caesarean section birth

  • Hysterectomy

  • Laparoscopies

  • Pelvic or lower abdominal surgeries (resection, removal of organs, tube/drain sites, cosmetic or oncological surgeries)

  • Pelvic or lower abdominal trauma

Please note: if you require release of perineal or vaginal scars, please book an Internal Pelvic Release Work session.


What’s involved in a SCAR Release Work session:

A Scar Release Work session is one hour of care focused on you. This usually involves:

  • An assessment of the scar, the tissues impacted, and a discussion of any issues you may be experiencing

  • A sharing of knowledge about relevant anatomy to help you understand and connect with your body

  • External touch on structures that support the scar to release tension and bring balance into surrounding soft tissue

  • External touch on the scar itself to move through and release the layers of tissue caught up in the scar (skin, fascia, muscle, fat, viscera and ligaments)

  • Guidance on how to continue with self-care and further release work at home

  • Individualised breathing or mindfulness practices to support scar release

MEET YOUR Practitioner

Helen Johnson
Practitioner, Nurse, Educator, & Teacher

I’m an Internal Pelvic Release Work practitioner, Registered Nurse, Childbirth Educator, Yoga and Meditation Teacher and mother to two beautiful young children.

After 16 years as a Registered Nurse and Clinical Nurse Educator in Australia and abroad, I noticed a troubling trend in the health practitioner-patient relationship concerning women’s health. Many women are being advised not to trust or understand their bodies, losing touch with their intuition when seeking answers to their physical, mental, and emotional signs and symptoms. With my background in supporting women through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond as a Yoga teacher and Childbirth Educator, I wanted to offer my community more.

I discovered Internal Pelvic Release Work through Fiona Hallinan and recognised it as a crucial tool for many women I encountered in pregnancy and postpartum. I believe you are the expert of your own body-mind-energy, and I am here to help you reconnect with that wisdom and find the answers that modern medicine often overlooks.
