Scar Pain & Scar Tissue Release at Orthopedic Manual Therapy Specialists in Germantown, MD

Are you tired of living with chronic pain, fatigue, or illness with minimal results from various clinicians? Whether you’re dealing with an old injury, a sports-related condition, or post-surgical complications, Orthopedic Manual Therapy Specialists in Germantown, MD offers specialized physical therapy to address these issues effectively. Our unique “3-Systems” approach and over 15 years of experience ensure that we find and treat the root causes of your pain and dysfunction, helping you regain your quality of life.

Overview of Scar Pain & Scar Tissue Release Therapy

Have you been to multiple clinicians with minimal results to help relieve chronic pain, chronic fatigue, or chronic illness? Any injury, whether chronic, acute, or sports-related, results from multiple system dysfunction. Orthopedic Manual Therapy Specialists specializes in finding the root causes of pain and weaknesses that limit your ability to enjoy life’s activities. Through our specialized assessments specific to our “3-Systems” approach, we can effectively target these dysfunctions.

You may need a series of visits, but developing a strong foundation is key to optimal recovery. What sets us apart is our “Foundational Program,” based on over 15 years of experience. Our medical-grade exercise programs specifically target faulty movement patterns that add stress to the body, improving vital functions related to breathing, vision, and digestion.

At Orthopedic Manual Therapy Specialists, we use hands-on manual therapy to address posture and nerve balancing through Myokinesthetics. Other techniques include improving muscle length and mobility through myofascial release, visceral manipulation, and muscle energy techniques. Additionally, we offer micro-current point stimulation therapy to reduce scar adhesions, chronic pain, and improve organ function. Our programs focus on calming the “fight-or-flight” response to allow for more fluid movement without compensation. If you don’t move right, you don’t feel right. If you don’t feel right, you don’t heal right. Whether you aim to maximize athletic performance or improve day-to-day activities, Orthopedic Manual Therapy Specialists has you covered.

Key Benefits

1. Pain Relief and Improved Mobility

Scar pain can range from intense pain to limited mobility. Our specialized physical therapy provides scar-pain relief through manual therapy treatments that release scar tissue, reducing pain and increasing the range of motion.

2. Comprehensive Treatment for All Types of Scars

Scars can result from various forms of trauma, including post-pregnancy conditions and surgical repairs of ligaments or bones. Our MPS Scar Release therapy uses acupuncture principles to break up adhesions along the entire length of scars. Scars impact our bodies in many negative ways, and our therapy addresses these issues effectively.

3. Addressing Chronic Pain and Nerve Pain

Scar tissue can restrict movement or function anywhere in the body, from a joint to an organ. This can lead to chronic pain and nerve pain, cause autonomic dysfunction, and reduce muscle and organ performance. Our therapy helps alleviate these problems.

4. Hormone Level Regulation

Scar tissue can suppress female hormone levels, leading to various health issues. Our treatments help improve overall health by addressing these hormonal imbalances.

5. Increased Flow of Energy and Improved Circulation

Our scar release therapy increases the flow of energy, improves blood circulation, and enhances lymph drainage, leading to better overall health and well-being.

6. Visible and Immediate Results

The duration of treatment depends on the number of scar sites each person has. Whether from injury or surgery, scar tissue can be significantly improved with MPS Scar/Adhesion Release Therapy. MPS treatment is generally painless, and you will see immediate visible changes in the appearance and reduction in tightness at the scar site.

Scar tissue release therapy is simple to learn and easy to apply, yielding powerful results that can prevent a lifetime of compensation, complications, and pain.

I was having hip pain while training for a half marathon and a friend suggested I see Dr. Cooper. I saw him at the Tyson’s location, he was able to diagnose the problem and give me some workouts/stretches to strengthen my muscles. I have never felt more comfortable in a doctor’s office before. It is obvious that Dr. Cooper knows what he is doing and does a great job of explaining things along the way. He is attentive and listens to his patients and creates an easy going atmosphere. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family!

My sport is riding horses in dressage. The posture, balance, symmetry, and range of motion of the rider greatly influences the ability of the horse to perform athletically. I found Dr. Cooper through the recommendation of another dressage rider who told me he was the only physical therapist she had encountered who looked at the whole body, not just an injured part. I could not agree more. Rehabbing from a freak accident that broke major bones on both sides of my body, my two years of semi-regular treatments with Dr. Cooper have left me pain-free with a more supple and secure seat. He is a treasure!
