Kate and scar massage has helped me to accept and come to terms with my changed body. It has given me the confidence to trust in myself, to promote healing and to learn what my new normal is. The time and space offered during the sessions gave me to opportunity to reflect and start moving forward in healing more than the scars alone. EB, Scar Work Client
