Graston Technique Goals
The general goals of the therapy are to reduce the patient’s pain and increase function through a combination of:
-
- Breaking down the scar tissue and fascia restrictions that are usually associated with some form of trauma to the soft tissue (e.g., a strained muscle or a pulled ligament, tendon, or fascia).
- Reducing restrictions by stretching connective tissue in an attempt to rearrange the structure of the soft tissue being treated (e.g., muscle, fascia, tendons, ligaments).
- Promoting a better healing environment for the injured soft tissue.
Class IV Laser
Laser therapy is a medical treatment that uses focused light to stimulate a process called photobiomodulation, or PBM. This treatment triggers a biological cascade of events that leads to an increase in cellular metabolism, decrease in pain, reduction in muscle spasm, and improved microcirculation to injured tissue. The treatment is FDA cleared and provides patients a non-invasive, non-pharmacological alternative for pain relief!
