What is Cesarean Section Scar Release Therapy?
Recovering from a c-section can be challenging, and scar healing is an important part of the process. You can read more about c-section recovery here. At Rooted Family Wellness Centre, our trained practitioners use Cesarean Section Scar Release Therapy to aid in the healing journey. We utilize the Dolphin Neurostim™ device, which employs Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) to release and reduce cesarean section pain. This safe and approved technology by Health Canada and the FDA produces significant changes in the scar, often noticeable after just one or two appointments.

- Decreases pain in the scar and connective tissue.
- Helps relax and fade scar tissue.
- Releases scar tightness, improving blood circulation and lymph drainage.
- Enhances mobility, decreases pain, and aids in overall recovery.
