At Scar Therapy Ireland, my focus is on helping people move, heal, and feel comfortable in their bodies again. I provide gentle, evidence-based scar therapy treatments for clients and share my expertise with fellow therapists who want to expand their knowledge of effective scar care. Whether you’re seeking relief after surgery or looking to learn the Restore Scar Therapy method, you’re in the right place.
RESTORE SCAR THERAPY
Restore Scar Therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach designed to improve tissue mobility, comfort, and function after surgery, injury, or burns. Developed by Emma Holly in the UK, the method combines light touch, movement, and clinical understanding of tissue healing to support both the body and the nervous system.
Restore Scar Therapy training brings together research, clinical experience, and gentle hands-on practice to help therapists develop effective, confident treatment skills. The focus is on supporting both practitioners and the people they care for — building a community dedicated to better scar recovery.
I’m proud to bring Restore Scar Therapy to Ireland — offering treatments for clients and certified training for healthcare and bodywork professionals.

ABOUT ME
I’m a Chartered Physiotherapist with over 23 years of experience and a special interest in hand and scar therapy. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy and an MSc in Physiotherapy and Biomechanical Engineering from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic.
I currently work in a busy Physiotherapy and Hand Therapy clinic in the South West of Ireland, where I focus on helping people restore comfort, function, and confidence after injury or surgery. Alongside my clinical work, I enjoy sharing my knowledge by teaching soft splinting workshops for hand therapists, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists.
Over the years, I’ve come to appreciate just how much scars can influence recovery — not only physically but also in terms of comfort and confidence. This led me to make scar therapy a key part of my practice. I trained as a Restore Scar Therapy Practitioner and have since completed the Oncology Scar Specialist, Caesarean Scar Specialist and Advanced Understanding Scars courses to deepen my knowledge.
The gentle yet effective principles of Restore Scar Therapy resonate deeply with my own “Restore Without the Pain” philosophy in physiotherapy. I’m passionate about helping clients experience greater comfort and freedom of movement — and equally passionate about sharing these approaches with fellow professionals across Ireland.
