Do you experience chronic pain?
You need to be aware of IASTM!
Unique Physical Therapy treats chronic pain with instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM). During this treatment, our physical therapists scrape the skin with a plastic or metal tool.
This treatment technique helps individuals feel more at ease. You will also notice a decrease in inflammation and an improvement in the condition that is causing you pain.
To learn more about how this technique can help you, contact one of our Warminster, PA and Lansdale, PA physical therapists today. Our Unique Physical Therapy team is excited to meet you and, more importantly, to help you overcome your pain.
What precisely is IASTM?
An IASTM-trained physical therapist will use specialized devices to break down connective tissue restrictions and scar tissue during this procedure.
Depending on your needs, your physical therapist will use different speeds and pressures on your skin. A minor inflammatory response occurs when specific pressure levels are applied to the afflicted muscles, tendons, or ligaments. This inflammation promotes the body’s natural healing mechanism, allowing you to recover and resume living your best life more quickly!
IASTM has been shown to help with the following problems:
- Limited motion
- Motor control issues
- Pain with movement
- Muscle recruitment issues
