Scar Tissue Therapy
Living with Diabetes means lots of injections. While they may seem small, every injection causes micro-trauma to the body. This trauma can affect insulin delivery, movement, posture and emotional well-being. Luckily, manual therapy can help!
Scars = Trauma
All scars, no matter how small leave an impact on the body. The hundreds of thousands of injections you endure as a type 1 diabetic can affect the local tissue, and your body as whole.
The Body
The body stores trauma as tension, which tightens your tissues, decreases blood flow, restricts movement, and impedes cellular waste removal.
The Mind
Our traumatized tissues often become "holding sites" for emotions. Scar tissue therapy can help to relieve those stuck feelings, leading to better overall health.
Blood Glucose Control
Most importantly, scar tissue at common injection sites leads to poor insulin delivery and high blood sugars. SCT can help break up the tissue and keep your sugar levels optimal.
