Our pledge to provide FREE scar therapy appointments
Restore Therapy is passionate about making scar therapy available to those who need it.
Offered as part of our trainee assessment programme, our FREE scar therapy sessions provide vital scar therapy to those affected with both new and old scars. 1,655 FREE appointments have already been provided since launch, and we want that number to reach 5,000.
We understand that not everyone is able to afford specialist treatments. Our free scar therapy pledge provides a win-win for those who would otherwise not be able to afford treatment whilst ensuring therapists completing their advanced skills course have the hands-on experience they need to offer scar therapy to their clients.
Each time we run a course we make appointments available, so more people can benefit from a FREE relaxing and holistic scar treatment.
Appointments last around 90 minutes, and incorporate:
- A gentle massage on your scar and the surrounding area
- Helpful self-care advice for you to continue at home
- Massage or other therapy treatment (depending on your preferences and the background of the therapist who is treating you)
When the appointment is finished, you may immediately notice a change in your scar, or simply feel relaxed, de-stressed and pampered. Clients are welcome to attend more than one session, so let us know each time you wish to book in for an appointment.

We have pledged to provide FREE access to scar treatments since 2017
We’ve pledged to provide 5000 free scar therapy sessions across the UK.
100’s of people benefit every year from attending the FREE scar therapy clinics, many returning for multiple treatments. Improvements are usually permanent, and even a single session is really useful. Take a look at a small selection of comments from clients who have attended.
If you have a scar as a result of an accident, a planned or emergency surgery or cosmetic procedure you can benefit for a FREE scar therapy appointment
We are always looking to reach new clients who will benefit from scar therapy and showcase the results possible. You don’t need to be aware of any issues with your scar to enjoy attending an appointment. Or perhaps you have a scar which is causing pain, is tight, puckered, or pulling and want some help and advice.
Your scar can be new or many decades old and will still respond to treatment. When appointments are released, we capture your details and screen all our clients to make sure therapy will be suitable for you.
Ideal anytime from 6 weeks to decades after a surgery or injury. Small (including keyhole) and large scars (including burns) are very welcome.
Appointments are offered via email to anyone who has registered for notifications a few weeks before each of the supervised clinics. Register your interest now
What to expect in your appointment during the supervised clinic?
You will be collected by your therapist and taken into the therapy room. Often this is a large room with multiple therapy beds, partially screened for privacy. The therapist is already experienced and knowledgable in their field of therapy, and has been learning additional skills to integrate scar treatment into their practice. Your therapist will have a chat with you to understand your needs and concerns so they can adjust and deliver treatment to meet your requirements.
During the appointment the therapists will rotate, and you will have a new therapist to complete your treatment. Treatment is usually delivered as 1:1 client and therapist, sometimes 1:2 with one client and two therapists. We often are able to offer therapy to up to 14 clients in each session, depending on the training group size and venue size.
Treatment should be comfortable and relaxing. It is important we do not simply treat the scar, but deliver a holistic treatment to focus also on changes that can be the result of a change in the way you stand or move since your surgery.
What if I am self conscious?
If your scar is more personal such as a c-section, abdominal hysterectomy or breast surgery we will usually be able to offer some screening and your treatment table will be away from any male clients attending and you can select if you only want to be treated by female or only male therapists. We are usually unable to offer full privacy screening, but if you are concerned you can simply get in touch and discuss your needs when you are interested to attend.
Some clients may be personally invited to arrive early to allow the tutor to give a demonstration to the group, but this is always organised with the client in advance of the clinic.
