Understanding Scars and Fascia
A Better Understanding Of Scar Tissue & Fascia
An important function of fascia is to reduce friction. It provides a supportive and movable wrapping for nerves and blood vessels as they pass through and between muscles. Fascial tissues are frequently innervated by sensory nerve endings.
Fascia holds our skin to our body. It is a band or sheet of connective tissue, primarily collagen, beneath the skin that attaches, stabilizes, encloses, and separates muscles and other internal organs. Fascia is very dense, wrapping and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein, as well as, all of our internal organs including the heart, lungs, brain, and spinal cord.
When our fascia becomes damaged by trauma, surgery or injuries, be they intentionally or unplanned, scar tissue and adhesions develop. This scar tissue can spread in any direction and reach deep into our bodies and restrict how our joints move and our organs function. These restrictions can cause so much abnormal strain (or fascial drag mentioned above) on the body that bones are stressed or pulled out of their natural alignment. This can trigger joint compression, pain, and dysfunction. Nerves, veins, and arteries can become trapped, which prompts neurological issues and restricted blood flow. Scar tissue that crosses the meridians will block the flow of the body’s natural energy system.
The body forms scar tissue as a natural response to trauma. When the skin is punctured or lacerated, collagen is laid down in a random, haphazard way which results in a thickened, fibrous mass which impedes the proper circulation of blood and congests lymph flow. As a result of the rapid repair process, the scar tissue is not as flexible as healthy tissue, not structured in the same way and does not have a normal blood supply, sweat glands, or hair. Scar tissue is extremely effective at helping protect and repair, but the functionality and elasticity of it are different from the surrounding tissue.
The damage to delicate nerve tissue often results in areas that are numb or lack feeling, while other areas are hypersensitive. While scar tissue contains the same materials as normal tissue, the quality of the scar tissue is inferior to that of the tissue it replaces. It is very important to understand that the scar you can see is only the tip of the iceberg. All surgeries involve multiple layers of sutures and go much deeper than what we see on the surface.
The Relationship Between Scars & Emotions
Many Scars May Have An Emotional Aspect
Scars and Emotions
Emotional responses to injury can occur occasionally, especially if the injury or surgery was life threatening, unexpected or from an act violence.
The emotions can get bound up in the fascia/scar tissue and can sometimes be intense. The amazing thing is that, often within just a few minutes of applying MSTR®, the intensity of those emotions reduce dramatically.
Common Scar Emotions
- Self–consciousness about the appearance of the scar.
- Unwillingness to look at or touch the scar
- Minor or sudden Major PTSD reaction
- Lack of sleep and mental stress from chronic pain that doctors do not acknowledge and family members do not understand.
- Crying or Laughing
Possible Emotional Release Scars:
- Hysterectomy scars
- C-section Scars (especially emergency C-Section)
- Mastectomy Scars
- Open Heart Surgery
- Amputation Scars
- Violent Crime Scars
