when we sit, the spine becomes stuck in flexion, obstructing the obliques and reducing mobility. To help break up the scar tissue, you can start with “warming up” the tissue in the area first. You can use a massage cream or lotion than start mobilising up n down and side to side . Don’t go directly over scar tissue
You need to do few exercises to reduce the tightness of muscle

Rather than opting for ultrasound you should better opt fir stretching exercises and soft tissue manipulation at that area along with application of an ice pack for 3 minutes after exercises.
