“Changing lives for the better.”
“Restoring movement, function, and comfort while addressing the lasting effects of scar tissue.”
What Is Scar Tissue?
Scar tissue forms naturally after trauma, surgery, or skin damage. While it’s an essential part of
healing, it can sometimes cause:
● Restricted movement and flexibility
● Reduced blood and lymph flow
● Altered sensation, such as numbness, tingling, or discomfort
● Tension in surrounding tissues, which may affect other areas of the body (for example, a
cesarean scar contributing to back pain)
Even older scars can continue to impact your mobility, function, and comfort, making targeted
treatment valuable.
What Is MSTR® and How Does It Work?
MSTR® (McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release) is a gentle, precise therapy designed to release
restrictions in scar tissue and surrounding tissues.
Using controlled fingertip movements, MSTR®:
● Loosens adhesions and restricted scar tissue
● Improves mobility, circulation, and tissue health
● Restores normal sensation and function
● Reduces pain, itching, irritation, and hypersensitivity
MSTR® focuses on functional improvements rather than just cosmetic changes, though scars
may also become smaller, flatter, or less prominent. Most improvements are long-lasting.
Who Can Benefit From Scar Tissue Therapy In Blackburn
Scars must be fully healed (at least 8 weeks old) and cleared by your surgeon before treatment.
MSTR® can be used for scars resulting from:
● Cesarean section or hysterectomy
● Spinal or keyhole surgeries
● Traumatic injuries or burns
● Head wounds or amputations
● Body piercings or mastectomy
MSTR® can also help with dense fibrous tissue in conditions such as:
● Frozen shoulder
● Tendon tears
● Dupuytren’s contracture
● Plantar fasciitis
Even scars years old can benefit, as the treatment encourages tissue remodelling and
functional recovery.
What to Expect During Treatment
MSTR® is gentle, safe, and highly effective. During your session, your practitioner will:
● Assess the scar and surrounding tissue
● Apply targeted, controlled fingertip movements to release restrictions
● Work to restore mobility, comfort, and sensation
Most clients notice improvements in movement, texture, and sensitivity after a few sessions.
Every treatment is delivered with care and sensitivity, addressing both the physical and
emotional impact of scar tissue.

Client Experience with Scar Tissue Therapy
“I’m a breast cancer survivor and as part of my treatment plan I had to undergo surgery and
radiation. I was left with painful and tight scar tissue which caused mobility issues and daily
pain.
Before Yasmin, I had seen massage therapists, physiotherapists, and doctors. I was even
advised by the NHS that nothing could be done for scar tissue. I had honestly given up and
accepted that I would be on painkillers for life.
After just three sessions of scar tissue release, I am in around 80% less pain and have so much
more range of movement. I cannot recommend this treatment enough — especially for those
who have undergone cancer surgery or any surgery at all. You do not have to suffer. Go to
Yasmin instead!” F.S-Blackburn
