Healing from Within: Scar Care & Self-Care Workshops

Are you a charity, rehab center, or individual seeking holistic support for scar healing? These 90-minute workshops bring together education, self-care, and mindful movement to empower people living with scars from surgery, injury, or limb loss.

Free for Veterans’ Charities, Sepsis Support Groups, and NHS Trusts (e.g., Roehampton’s Amputee Clinic).

What You’ll Experience

• Education & Understanding – Learn how scars form, the different types (such as hypertrophic or keloid), and how factors like stress, age, or infection affect recovery.
  
  

• Practical Self-Care – Practice four essential techniques, including scar massage, to improve circulation, soften adhesions, and restore mobility.
  
  

• Mindfulness Practices – Experience accessible chair yoga, calming breathwork, and guided meditation to reduce stress and support emotional resilience.
  
  

• Tailored Guidance – Each session is adapted to meet the needs of participants, whether in amputation recovery, post-sepsis care, or other medical contexts.
  
  

Why It Matters

Research shows that practices such as yoga and mindful breathing can accelerate healing and improve overall wellbeing. These workshops are designed to give participants tools they can use every day—to feel more at ease in their bodies and more confident in their healing journey.

Infant Massage & Scar Care Classes

Gentle touch for healing, bonding, and recovery

When your baby has been through a difficult start — sepsis, surgery, or medical intervention — touch can feel complicated. Many parents long to nurture their child but feel unsure about how to do it safely, especially if scars, procedures, or trauma are part of the story.

That’s where infant massage and scar care can make a difference.

In these classes, you’ll learn:

• Safe, gentle massage routines to calm and comfort your baby
  
  

• How to care for and massage around scars with confidence
  
  

• Ways to rebuild trust and reduce anxiety around touch after medical interventions
  
  

• How to read your baby’s signals and respond with sensitivity
  
  

• Techniques to support bonding, sleep, digestion, and overall wellbeing
  
  

What makes this class different?

Unlike general baby massage courses, this class is trauma-informed and recovery-focused. We recognise that your baby’s early experiences of touch may have been medical, urgent, and sometimes painful. These sessions help you shift from life-saving touch to nurturing, restorative touch that reassures your baby and strengthens your bond.

Class Options

• 1:1 Sessions – personalised support for you and your baby

• Small Group Classes – connect with other parents on similar journeys

• Online Guidance – learn from home with live video or recorded support

• Hospital & Charity Workshops – available in partnership with services

Each family receives a resource pack with step-by-step guides, scar care checklists, and access to follow-up support.

Who is it for?

Parents of babies and toddlers recovering from:

• Medical interventions that have affected comfort and bonding

• Sepsis

• Surgery

• Accidents or Injury
  
  

No prior experience is needed, just your willingness to show up with love and learn gentle ways to support your child.

 Your touch is powerful. These classes are here to help you and your baby rediscover its healing potential.
