“Fibrous tissue that forms when normal tissue is destroyed by disease, injury, or surgery. For example, scar tissue forms when a wound heals after a cut, sore, burn, or other skin condition, or when an incision (cut) is made into the skin during surgery.”(https://www.cancer.gov/publications/dictionaries/cancer-terms/def/scar-tissue#)

When scar tissue forms it can change the patterns of fascia (soft tissue that surrounds muscles, bones and organs) in the body that can lead to soft tissue dysfunction.

Through friction techniques Valerie can help break up scar tissue, changing the patterns of dysfunction.
