Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)
Scar Tissue
Scars can be viewed as "potential" organ-meridian disturbances, a physical or energetic disturbance of a meridian precipitated by the trauma induced to the tissues.
This disruption in energy flow in the skin, muscles and underlying meridians can then cause organic or energetic pathology of the local affected areas.
Treatment of Scars
The treatment of scars has an historical base in Oriental medicine and can often be the key to the successful resolution of chronic, persistent, intractable conditions.
All scars are inherently a malformation in normal cellular skin repair. They are matrices of collagen, blood vessels, and sometimes foreign objects or toxins that have been deposited in the disorderly fashion that constitutes scarred tissue.
Very Effective
Acupuncture is very effective in restoring the natural flow of energy in the region of the scar tissue and helping restore the original structure and appearance.
