Soft Tissue Therapy
The perfect therapy to guide healing and resolve stubborn muscle tension
Improve healing after sprains and strains
Relieve muscle tension
Remove scar tissue from muscles, ligaments, tendons and fascia
Adhesion Breakers are stainless steel tools used for Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (You may have heard of similar tools, such as Graston Technique, gua sha and FAKTR tools). This system of healing has been used for centuries in Chinese medicine to remove scar tissue, reduce pain and improve healing in muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia. Adhesion Breakers are used to create localized pressure and friction where adhesions and scar tissue have formed. This is one of many myofascial release techniques that guides the inflammatory process of healing so that damaged tissue can be replaced with organized healthy tissue.
Common conditions successfully treated with Adhesion Breakers:
Ankle sprains
Shin splints
Plantar fasciitis
Knee pain
IT band syndrome
Tendonitis
Medial/lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow/golf elbow)
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Back and neck pain.
