IASTM
A highly effective technique used to treat musculoskeletal injuries and improve overall mobility and function
What Is IASTM?
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) is a manual therapy technique that utilizes specially designed tools to detect and treat soft tissue dysfunction. These tools, often made of stainless steel or other materials, are used to apply controlled pressure to the skin, fascia, and muscles, helping to break up adhesions and scar tissue.
How Does Dry Needling Work?
The insertion of the needle into the trigger point stimulates a response from the nervous system, causing the muscle to relax and release tension. This can result in immediate relief of pain and improved range of motion. Dry needling can also promote blood flow to the affected area, aiding in the natural healing process.
