Stretches For C-Section Scar Pain & Mobility
Stronger As A Mother (Postnatal) Athlete Program • 13m

Whether you're experiencing pain or discomfort around your scar or not, these stretches are a great way to increase mobility, lengthen tight muscles, and help alleviate pain. This should not be attempted until your incision site is fully healed and you have been cleared by your healthcare provider.
