IASTM for Myofascial Mobilization

IASTM (Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization) uses specially designed instruments with beveled edges and contours to treat conditions of myofascial restriction. The treatment of mobilizing soft tissue that has adhered to other tissues, or scar tissue that has formed, reduces pain, and restores normal range of motion to restricted areas.

It is believed that the use of an IASTM tool that is uniquely designed protects the clinician’s hands/thumb from repetitive wear and provides enhanced sensation through vibrational sensitivity in detecting altered and adhered tissue properties. Further, IASTM treatments have shown to help remodel tissues through the resorption of excess fibrosis, the stimulation of collagen repair processes, and the consequential breakdown of tissue adhesions, fascial restrictions, scar tissue, and ligament healing. The end benefit is enhanced myofascial mobility with little discomfort and bruising during treatment.
