The aim is to **reduce pain** , lessen post-operative adhesions and restore as much function and **aesthetic appearance** as possible. A physiotherapist's specialist approach helps patients achieve better **results** than without intervention. As a result, patients can enjoy a better **quality of life** and greater self-confidence. Regular physiotherapy can bring significant improvements in the elasticity and **appearance of scars** and in the function of the tissues around the scar – reducing **fascial** restrictions. At our clinic we tailor the treatment plan to the patient's individual needs and the type of scar. ### Who is it for? - scar therapy - scar needling - scar taping - scar mobilisation - improving scar colour - reducing scar visibility - pain reduction - reducing post-operative adhesions - increasing skin elasticity - reducing fascial restrictions ## Book a visit 5.0 · 491 reviews Google - [**Free consultation** 15 min](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/free-consultation/#terminy) - Mon–Fri 7:00–21:00, Sat 7:00–14:00 · book online 24/7 - Wolska 2a (Prokocim) and Wicherkiewicza 23/K (Kliny) [Book online](https://rejestracja.medfile.pl/register/catalog/?uuid=9b800421-44aa-593e-f584-e55b0b74cba1&language=en) [881 505 588](tel:+48881505588) Who will help you ## Therapists [Meet the whole team →](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/team/) ### [Weronika Kukuś](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/weronika-kukus/) women's health physiotherapist Pelvic floor physiotherapy, scar therapy, KOBIDO massage.

Yes. Scar therapy, including after a caesarean section, is provided by Weronika Kukuś and Karolina Rado. ### What methods do you use in scar therapy? Among other things, we use scar massage and mobilisation, exercise, needling and scar taping. We tailor the plan to the type of scar and the patient's needs. ### Can a surgical scar restrict movement? Yes. A scar after a caesarean section or other surgery can restrict movement and be painful, so in therapy we work on skin elasticity, post-operative adhesions and fascial restrictions around the scar. ### Does physiotherapy improve the appearance of a scar? That is one of the aims of therapy – we work on the colour and visibility of the scar. Equally important, however, are tissue function, skin elasticity and pain reduction. ### Do I need a referral? No. You can book a visit without a referral – just choose a time online or give us a call. ### Do you accept patients through the NFZ (Poland's public health fund)? No, we only see patients privately. Prices are listed in our [price list](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/prices/) . ### Where are you based? We have two clinics in Krakow: [ul.
