My massage therapist who has training in myofascia therapy has greatly decreased her husband's scar from a sternotomy years ago. She said it was awful. She is going to help me with mine when I get the doctors OK. Do not try this without your Dr saying OK. I have found from back surgery in '06 that I developed scarring inside too. This was minimally invasive and through the ribs. Just another idea! Joan Keilman I do not know wether my other comment went through so I will submit again.
