Bobbi, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to release adhesions in this way!! SURGERY IS THE ONLY ONE WAY TO RELEASE ADHESIONS; BUT NO SURGEON CAN GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE ADHESION-FREE and thus pain-free!!!!
It is apparent that this doctor either DOES NOT know the reality of adhesions or he is deceiving you. I strongly suggest that you find a doctor who is knowledgeable about adhesions.
Love, Helen D.
