Massage Therapy for Burn Scars


Don’t let your burn scars be a lasting reminder of the trauma you went through. Combined with traditional treatment from your doctor, burn scar massage therapy effectively controls the development of scar tissue by helping victims heal faster. We at Kosak Chiropractic are committed to assisting our burn patient victims in feeling more comfortable with an improved range of motion.




Safe stretches and massages are combined to promote loosening of the burn scar tissue, allowing for a more comfortable range of motion to occur. This is the most common reason why a burn scar victim may want to see a chiropractor. When skin burns and then begins the healing process, it puckers and tightens to form those all too familiar scars. But massage therapy for burn scars can do a lot more than help with range of motion.




Other benefits include:




- Reduces itching


- Prevents compensatory structure dysfunction


- Reduces spasms in surrounding tissue


- Preps burn scar for stretching and strengthening exercises


- Promotes development of a “good quality” scar


- Reduces swelling


- Reduces skin hypersensitivity


- Helps manage psychological symptoms


- Reduces pain and joint stiffness associated with edema


- Prevents and/or reduces contractures


- Pain management
