Kylie Hays

Using your protocol after this third c section has made a HUGE difference over the other recoveries. I can touch my scar, move it, I can pick it up! I’m so impressed at the difference 🥹

Samantha

Super helpful to know how to manipulate the scar tissue from the beginning where everything is just stuck! Definitely cringed at trying to pull at the scar, but mine isn’t there yet!

Diema

Wrote the techniques down and will slowly try each one !

vanessa

This is my 4th C section and even though my surgeon took out my previous scar I can still feel adhesions from my new one. So glad I’m able to do this tissue work before bed.

Megan Casey

The BEST scar manipulation I have ever been given!! (C-section, two laparoscopic abdominal surgeries, and a meniscus knee surgery.) Thanks J!

Stephanie

Everyone talked about how nicely my scar healed. I didn’t realize how much I needed this! The pulling one was so hard to do, because of the rolling you talked about. I definitely need to do this more!

Laura

Shardee

7 months postpartum with c-section #5, I've never done this, and I am so glad I've started. Never realized how tight the tissues actually feel underneath! Looking forward to seeing a difference in the skin above my scar!

Kristal

I think my entire stomach is a giant adhesion.  I’m excited to see progress as it comes.  Thank you for providing hope.

Bonita

At first I was like, okay I can do this… then the more intensive stretches I was like … 😳 um maybe… one … day … soon (not yet 😆🤣) Kidding, can’t wait until I’m at that level 💗

Just curious, how did you know you had adhesions all the way up to your rib cage?

Kassandra

So tired bc kids have been sick for forever, but got my c section work in!!

I cannot say thank you enough!! As a birth trauma mama, I’ve avoided any type of scar touching for 2.5 years.  I feel so supported & ready to work through this with Jesse!

Ashley

Elizabeth

I’ve never touched my scar for healing! I never thought to, if I’m being honest which sounds silly! That’s pinning one and little circles! Just wow

Irene

My c-section shelf is so significant I’m not able to pull on my scar at all, the bottom part of my stomach feels so hard. Could that be built up scar tissue? 
I’ve had two c-sections, 16 months apart

Oh boy do I have some work to do here . 2 c sections and also a major surgery with a scar there from when I was a kid. My mental block is from that first scar, not the c sections…I’m trying.

Ashley Flowers

So excited to start seeing more progress on my scar and shelf . After just a bit of the scar work I can touch my scar without the pulling feeling after 5 years of just living this way 🧡

It’s so strange, but that felt so good to actually do!

Jessie

I cannot wait to see the results from this work!

Jenny

I can really feel how activating and mobilizing this is after even just one run-through! So excited to work on this as I nurse my daughter in bed every night.

Elsa

Wow. I was never told about adhesions and that I would need to work with my scar. And I definitely didn’t know that deep adhesions caused my bigger overhang shelf.  So many of my friends would benefit from this! Can’t wait to get them on this journey!!!

Emily

I'm 22 months postpartum and my scar is a very deep ridge with an overhang even though I have been doing many of these techniques from pretty much the beginning. I guess I'm not working as aggressively as I should? I have never been able to pick up my scar it just seems impossible. 🙈😓 Definitely going to try the pinning technique and looking forward to finding out what you mean by "tools".

Kamielle

You are so gentle in how you explain everything! I definitely have trauma with my scar because I got so emotional and sick watching you do this 🙈

Autumn

I’ve never had anyone describe why I have that skin overhang before. I’ve always had people act like that’s just what happens, even though I know other c-section mamas who don’t have it. This is what I’m most self conscious about and I love that you touch on it and explain it so well. That has given me motivation to keep working on this. I know it will take a while to get comfortable, but I feel a lot of support from you!

Caitlin

I’m 5 years PP from c section. My scar is so tight up against my skin, but I have a  pouch above it. Is this scar tissue? Doing the circles and pulling motion- will that help for me to eventually be able to pick up my scar?

Katee

-Wait until scar is healed 6-8weeks
-This is the only layer you’ll want to utilize if pregnant 
-utilize these techniques 5-7 minutes daily, every other day or as needed :)

Skin & Fascia: Step 2

Really good info! Curious to see what comes up when I start this work.

Lindsay

Sierra

I definitely cried listening to you speak about changing our story related to our scar. I cannot express how thankful I am that you exist, you are such a beautiful person Jesse, thank you for creating this program for us. Excited to keep working on this!!

Dahlia

C-section Protocol Welcome

Working on this while pregnant knowing I have a c section coming up is hard. Healing trauma while expecting trauma is strange. I’m hoping this will help.

Whoa hello tears! Didn’t know that was coming!

Scar Desensitization: Step 1

Yes I can feel those micro adhesion. Been working slowly on my scar and I’ve seen improvement but I know I had lots of work to do.

Yaniellie

Having Jesse’s calming energy to guide me through this traumatic work is EVERYTHING!!!

Muscle layer: Step 3

I have had decadeS of pain and discomfort, like cramping or torn muscles feeling….and you are helping me target so much! 
I hope you also address episiotomy tears and cuts down the road sometime, too! I appreciate your training, wisdom and experience!!

It’s definitely a strange feeling but I can tell I need it!!

Shannon

Again. Mind blown. Had no idea we could rehab on this level 🤯 And about the affects adhesions have on our everyday life??? So grateful for you and the work you’ve put into this 🩷

Organ layer: Step 4

I have a ton of stretch marks and loose skin (I’m 5’1 and had BIG babies). Skin is somewhat sensitive but in the lower belly it almost feels fragile. Is this something I could benefit from and see results?

Hannah G

Great info even if you haven’t been through a C-section!

Brittani

I’ve always had a hard time touching my scar with my hands. I’m not sure why! But using the gua sha has made such a difference! I am able to work on my scar and feel ok all at the same time! Thank you thank you!!

Amber J

Tissue work with Tools

I’m really interested in this technique. My cups just came in and I did it briefly along with the video. Lots of great information! I can definitely feel something. I’m looking forward to working on this more!
