This video is designed for health professionals working with women experiencing a stiff shoulder and limited arm movement including cording after breast cancer treatment.

We demonstrate Emma Holly’s Restore Scar Massage techniques to increase range of motion without compromising the lower back.

Learn how to assess a patient's current range of movement, identify limitations, and address restrictions caused by scar tissue, axillary web syndrome (cording), and neural responses.

We cover proper hand placement to protect surgical sites (including axillary node dissection, mastectomy, lumpectomy, and breast reconstruction scars) and how to guide patients through assisted movements.

This technique helps to change tension and proprioceptive feedback, allowing for greater range of motion.

We also discuss important considerations and cautions, including the importance of consulting with the medical team before starting these exercises, especially for those with lymphedema or swelling.

Improve your patients' quality of life by helping them regain arm mobility after breast cancer treatment.
