Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Treatment sessions will be provided biweekly for two weeks apart in order to allow physiological and biomechanical healing time between treatment sessions.
MFR techniques will be employed to release the caesarean scar and myofascia of the DFL of each subject.
The depth of the scar in this study takes us through all the layers from the skin to the uterus, following the surgical incision procedure.
MFR was the primary treatment applied to the accessible structure of the patients' DFL, through Myers's MFR techniques of DFL. MFR in its simplest form targeted restoration of mobility of myofascial and fascial layers from within, and with the surrounding structure.
