Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization in Fort Worth

Soft tissue injuries (STI) are when trauma or overuse occurs to muscles, tendons, or ligaments. Most soft tissue injuries occur during sports and exercise, but simple everyday activities can sometimes cause an injury. Tendinitis and bursitis are common soft-tissue overuse injuries. Soft tissue injuries can be debilitating and annoying. At Peak Physical Medicine and Wellness, we offer the Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization to help relieve the symptoms that might accompany your injury.

Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) effectively treats all soft tissue conditions, whether chronic, acute, or post-surgical. IASTM helps with acute and chronic fascia, tendons, muscle, and scar tissue injuries. It is used by several NFL, NBA, NHL, and Olympic athletes regularly. Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization therapy has resolved issues for patients that caused them to live with pain for years, sometimes decades. Say goodbye to costly anti-inflammatory and pain medications.

Benefits Of Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization

Here is a list of some of the benefits patients experience undergoing Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization:

• Reduced scar tissue

• Increased range of motion

How Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization Works

IASTM uses specially designed stainless steel instruments with unique treatment edges and angles to deliver effective manual therapy. When combined with appropriate therapeutic exercise, the use of IASTM instruments leads to the restoration of pain-free movement and function. The instruments are also used diagnostically to assess the kinetic chain efficiently using the principles of regional interdependence.

The technique and instruments used during the treatment process enable the treatment of scar tissue and fascial restrictions during rehabilitation, allowing for faster rehabilitation and greater success when restoring range of motion, eliminating pain, and bringing back normal function.
