Hi August,
you said quote: "My surg. told me fairly early after surgery...don't recall...maybe 6 weeks or so....that I'd better "massage the heck out of" my neck. He meant breaking up the scar tissue. Scar tissue doesn't stretch, so this sort of massage needs to be done as soon as possible after surgery, to keep it broken up as it heals".
Can you explain how he told you to massage? I'm interested in massaging for exactly this; loosening the skin.
(We'll see a lymphatic massage therapist to learn how to do that type of massage). I wonder what the diff is between the 2 types of massaging. Anyone know?
Thanks
