   Our user asked: "I have scar tissue impinging on a nerve in my neck from surgery. Can PT/OT help break up this tissue? Thanks"
Ask a PT Response: Physical Therapists can break up scar tissue with manual therapy techniques. In addition they can perform neuro mobilizations to help with minimizing scar tissue adhesions to a nerve after surgery. Best of luck to  you."
