Is your scar healed… but your body still doesn’t feel quite right?

After abdominal surgery, the scar may look healed on the outside, but the tissues underneath can still be tight, restricted, numb or sensitive.

You may notice:
✨ Tightness around the scar
✨ Changes in sensation
✨ Swelling or discomfort
✨ Restricted movement
✨ A feeling that your abdomen just doesn’t move the way it used to

“Your scar is only one part of the healing process.” — Sam Lyden

Join Sam Lyden, Scar & Trauma Specialist & Paula Sharp, Nutritional Life Coach, for a practical, hands-on workshop exploring what can happen to the tissues, fascia, movement and lymphatic flow following abdominal surgery.

You won’t just sit and listen. Sam will demonstrate gentle techniques to support tissue mobility, comfort and lymphatic flow and you’ll have the opportunity to practise them yourself and understand what you’re doing and why.

I’ll be there supporting Sam with the hands-on learning and demonstrations.

Whether your surgery was recent or years ago, this workshop is designed to give you greater understanding, practical tools and a different perspective on your recovery.

Your scar may be healed — but is your recovery complete?
Abdominal surgery can leave more than a scar on the skin.

Even months or years after surgery, you may still experience tightness, numbness, sensitivity, swelling, discomfort or a feeling that your abdomen just isn’t moving the way it used to.

“Your scar is only one part of the healing process,” says Sam Lyden, Scar & Trauma Specialist.

Surgery can affect much more than the skin. The layers of tissue underneath, fascia, movement, sensation and lymphatic flow can all be affected.

Sam’s Abdominal Scar Recovery Workshop is designed to help you understand what may be happening beneath the surface — and what you can do to support your body.

This is practical and hands-on, not a workshop where you simply sit and listen.

Sam will demonstrate gentle techniques to support tissue mobility, comfort and lymphatic flow. You’ll have the opportunity to practise the techniques yourself and learn about pressure, direction and rhythm — and, importantly, why you’re doing them.

We’ll look beyond the scar itself at the surrounding tissues, movement, sensation, fluid flow and the body's response to surgery and trauma.

Sam will be supported by Nutritional Life Coach Paula Sharp, assisting with the practical demonstrations and hands-on learning.

No previous experience is needed, and the workshop is suitable whether your surgery was recent or many years ago.

If you’ve ever wondered “Why does my scar still feel tight?” or “Why do I still feel restricted years after surgery?” — this workshop is for you.
