I have abdominal scarring. It came from a ruptured ovarian cyst many years ago. The doctor removed it during the other surgery. Just came back. Went to deep tissue massage therapist. It worked!!!! I thought I was maybe too heavy to go, but she said I was small. Ha ha. It was much cheaper, healthier, safer than taking Merbetric sp? The urologist who said I did not have scar tissue was full of bull.
