Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to assess the impact of soft tissue mobilization on the scar in patients after cesarean section. An additional aim is to assess the relationship between the initial stiffness and elasticity of the scar and the age of the patients, the number of cesarean sections performed, as well as the time that has passed since the last cesarean section. Two physiotherapeutic interventions will be performed in the form of mobilization of the soft tissues (myofascial release techniques) of the lower abdominal area and the cesarean section scar, two weeks apart. The researchers will perform an assessment before and after each therapeutic session, as well as 2 weeks after the last therapy (follow-up). The level of satisfaction with life (Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)) as well as the area of the cesarean section scar (Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS), scar assessment according to the Mustoe classification) will be analyzed. Researchers will also assess the sequence of abdominal muscle contractions during activation of the pelvic floor muscles (ultrasound examination) and quantify the state of soft tissue tension using the MyotonPro measuring device.
