The Restore Scar Therapy Pledge
CREATING OPPORTUNITIES TO GIVE BACK
At the heart of Restore Therapy, the mission is to enable better access to scar treatment for everyone and to support therapists who train with us. Between 2018-2021 Restore Therapy led a team of trained scar tissue therapists to support the participants in the Invictus Games trials. Over 550 treatments were given, with great results for the athletes. Average score for pain before treatment was 6/10 Average score for pain after treatment was 2.5/10 and personal bests achieved in the sporting events. Therapists who participated enjoyed the opportunity to give back and work with a team of likeminded individuals. Our dedication to creating and supporting the community continues, and in recent years we have been supporting Dans Fund for Burns, read more here.
