Scar tissue management is a rehabilitation technique focused on reducing the formation of excessive scar tissue and improving mobility in the affected area following injury or surgery. Techniques like manual therapy, massage, stretching, and the use of modalities like ultrasound or heat therapy are employed to soften scar tissue, increase blood flow, and promote tissue remodeling.

Scar tissue can restrict movement and cause discomfort, especially if it forms around joints or muscles. By using appropriate interventions, scar tissue management helps to improve range of motion, prevent adhesions, and reduce the risk of long-term complications.

Effective scar tissue management can significantly improve functional recovery, alleviate discomfort, and restore normal tissue mobility after trauma or surgery.
