Workshops

Workshops are designed for people living with surgical scars, amputation, joint replacement, sepsis-related scarring, burns, blast injuries, or other traumatic scars, and for family members and carers who support them. No prior experience is needed. Sessions are welcoming,paced with plenty of breaks and time for reflection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Do I need to show my injuries or scars?

A: Never. This is a completely trauma-informed space. We practice entirely over loose clothing, and all tactile exercises are done on your own forearms or thighs. Your privacy is 100% protected.

Q: What if a movement hurts or doesn't work for my body?

A: You stop immediately. Every exercise begins with a "zero-strain" version, such as pure mental visualization. Moving the limb in your mind activates the exact same healing pathways in your brain without pulling on vulnerable nerve roots or fused joints.

Q: I have a Brachial Plexus Injury (BPI). Is this safe for me?

A: Yes. We use strict safety protocols. We never cue stretches or movements that pull away from your injury, ensuring your nerve injury remains completely safe from painful traction.

Q: I am an amputee. Can I attend if I am not wearing my prosthetic hardware?

A: Absolutely. You can attend with or without your hardware. We have separate, highly specific safety guidelines for bare limbs to ensure you do not trigger phantom limb pain loops.

Q: Is this an open discussion about our accidents or trauma?

A: No. We focus entirely on physical and neurological recovery tools. You will never be asked to speak about your accident or recount any medical trauma.
