All Surgery Creates Adhesions

Everyone need manual hands-on therapy after surgery to treat adhesions

After Surgery Adhesions

When people have surgery, they are absolutely trying to make the best decision they can with the information that is available to them.

Surgeons are trying to help people make good decisions based on their training and model of care.

Sometimes surgery is imperative and life-saving.

Sometimes people have regrets that they did not understand there were options other than surgery for their particular situation

If you had surgery, whether it was the absolute best option, or whether other options were not considered, surgery leaves unintended consequences.

Those consequences at a minimum are adhesions.

Adhesions are the result of the normal disorganized way the body heals.

The initial healing process lays down new tissue in a disorganized fashion.

Movement (especially passive movement like manual therapy) organizes that tissue into smooth productive planes.

Even surgery to remove adhesions creates new adhesions.

Even “non-invasive” laproscopic surgery creates adhesions.
