What is Graston Technique?
Graston Technique is a fairly new procedure for the management of muscle and joint complaints. The technique is designed to detect and treat soft-tissue fibrosis or chronic inflammation. It was developed to aid in the treatment of patients who are experiencing pain and loss of function as a result of injury, cumulative stress disorders, as well as post-surgical procedures. Most patients report pain reduction and improved function within the first two treatments. The technique enables the doctor to effectively break down adhesions and scar tissue that forms between muscle fibers. It makes use of scientifically designed stainless steel instruments that detect and treat tissue restrictions that result in pain and dysfunction.
