ASTM/Graston Technique

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization, or Graston Technique, is a soft tissue technique utilizing specific tools which, when effectively applied by a trained practitioner, will break up myofascial adhesions and scar tissue. This can help to alleviate chronic tightness throughout the body. Using this technique, patients will notice improved mobility, decreased pain and tension, improved circulation and quicker healing of injuries. Conditions such as sprains, strains, and tendinitis respond very well to this technique
