Healing Hands: Confidently Caring for Your Scars

 

Your body is incredible, and surgery, radiotherapy and other treatment is a testament to its resilience. As you embark on or continue your healing journey, caring for your scar becomes a vital part of your self-care routine. It's natural to have questions or even anxieties about your scar, but I'm here to show you that you have the tools and knowledge within you to approach this with confidence and control.

In these videos, created by myself and Janey Barrett for Penny Brohn UK, you'll find clear, actionable guidance on scar care techniques – from preparing your skin before surgery to gentle, effective methods for nurturing your healing tissues afterwards. Our aim is to demystify scar care, providing you with practical insights that make a real difference. Your scar is a symbol of your strength, and learning to care for it is an act of profound self-love.

Let's unlock the power of self-care for your scar, giving you peace of mind and supporting your body's remarkable ability to heal.

"Well in terms of training, I thought Kate used really innovative ways that were easily accessible and kept me interested and motivated throughout. I could do most of the exercises in the home and the programme set was achievable yet challenging and I found that it fitted around my lifestyle. The exercises were specifically targeted at my right hip which was weak due to an operation I had on it when I was 14. By the end of the programme I found that I could hold myself up on a pole dancing pole by my thighs alone which I could not do before I started to train with Kate"
