Science

What is the Graston Technique?

The Graston Technique is a manual therapy method that uses specialized stainless steel instruments to detect and treat areas of soft tissue fibrosis, adhesions, and chronic inflammation. These instruments allow therapists to apply targeted pressure to affected areas, breaking down scar tissue and facilitating faster healing. This technique is widely used in physical therapy, sports rehabilitation, and pain management.

Unlike traditional deep tissue massage, the Graston Technique provides a more precise approach to detecting and treating muscle and connective tissue dysfunction. The uniquely designed instruments help amplify soft tissue restrictions, allowing therapists to apply the right amount of force to stimulate healing without causing unnecessary discomfort.
