Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)

Post Surgery & Torn Tissue Physical Therapy

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) uses stainless steel tools with beveled edges and contours to conform to different spots on your body to allow for deeper penetration. It is used to find and treat soft tissue disorders.

The ergonomically designed instruments effectively break down fascial restrictions and scar tissue because your physical therapist can find and treat restrictions with an appropriate amount of pressure.

Increased Function

By stimulating local tissues, excessive scar tissue gets reabsorbed, creating a cascade of healing to remodel your soft tissue structures. Adhesions from surgery, repeated strain, immobilization, or other mechanisms break down to allow you increased function again.

Three Reasons To Chose Us For Help:

1. Every patient will receive one on one treatment. They will be my only patient while they during their appointment, which differs from the 2-4 patients being seen an hour in other clinics routinely

2. Every patient will receive 1 full hour of treatment every session, one on one. No paperwork, no other patients, no other phone calls. 100% attention is to the patient the entire time. Other clinics will routinely be on the laptop doing paperwork during their session and attention to other patients, staff and “busy work” will be performed.

3. Every session will be my me and my 23 years of experience. No lesser credentialed therapists like a physical therapy assistant or tech, who may or may not have a high school diploma. There will be continuity of care this way, decreasing risk of miscommunication and treatment maintaining the highest level every session.

4. Immediate appointments that will be within 24-48 hrs of calling. Most clinics are short handed, decreasing level of care, continuity and availability, often hiring less qualified staff that will decrease care.
