Evidence-Based, Hands-On Scar Treatment Courses for Healthcare Professionals
If you’re a healthcare or wellness professional looking to confidently treat scars, our Scar Treatment Courses combine research, clinical reasoning and real-life application.
These are not theory-heavy days with no practical skill.
They are immersive, hands-on training experiences designed to enhance your current treatments and help you grow your practice.
All courses are taught by an expert Scar Tutor (Hannah, Sandra, Carrie, Charlotte, Kirsty or Lizzie). Every tutor has trained with HLP Therapy; is a Womens Health Physiotherapist with years of clinical experience and is dedicated to advancing scar therapy understanding.
Meet Your Scar Tutors
Our courses are delivered by our experienced physiotherapists and qualified scar therapy practitioners.
Combining evidence-based practice with hands-on expertise, our educators are passionate about supporting therapists to learn safe, effective and confident scar therapy skills for a wide range of clients and conditions.
