As therapists, we know that scars can have a lasting impact on function, movement, and wellbeing. This section offers evidence-based information, treatment approaches, and professional training to help you expand your knowledge and confidence in scar management.

SCAR PHYSIOLOGY & PATHOLOGY

A deeper understanding of scar physiology allows therapists to assess, treat, and educate clients more effectively. This section explores tissue healing, collagen remodelling, and the characteristics of pathological scars — bridging the gap between research and real-world clinical application.

SCAR TREATMENT APPROACHES

Effective scar management requires a clear understanding of the evidence supporting each therapeutic option. Here, we review current modalities — from manual therapy to medical interventions — highlighting their mechanisms, indications, and limitations, with reference to up-to-date research and clinical experience.
