The Graston Technique is a specialized form of manual therapy used to diagnose and treat soft tissue injuries and restrictions. It involves the use of specially designed stainless-steel instruments to detect and break up scar tissue and fascial restrictions, restoring optimal function to the affected tissues.

How does it work?
The Graston Technique utilizes a set of ergonomically designed stainless steel instruments with unique shapes and edges. These instruments are used to effectively detect and treat areas of scar tissue, adhesions, and fascial restrictions in the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues. The instruments are applied to the skin with gentle pressure and are then used to scrape or "grasp" along the surface of the tissue, breaking up adhesions and promoting healing.
What does it feel like?
The practitioner will then apply a small amount of lubricant to the skin and use the Graston instruments to scan and treat the affected areas. Patients may experience mild discomfort during the treatment as adhesions are broken up, but most find the overall experience to be both effective and therapeutic.
How fast will I see results?
The number of Graston Therapy sessions needed varies depending on the individual and the specific condition being treated. Some patients may experience relief after just one session, while others may require multiple treatments to achieve optimal results. Your practitioner will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and progress.
