If you're pregnant and had a tear during your last birth, there are gentle ways to prepare that scar tissue for your upcoming delivery. In this video, I’ll walk you through how to massage an old perineal scar to help it become softer, more flexible, and better prepared for birth — which may help reduce your risk of tearing again and ease postpartum perineal discomfort.
You'll learn:
✅ How to warm up the tissue before starting
✅ External scar massage movements you can do at home
✅ Internal techniques to improve flexibility and release tension
✅ How to practice pelvic floor release while you massage
These techniques are for comfort and mobility — not diagnosis — and should never cause sharp pain or burning.
