Brilliant Massage Therapy is now officially certified provider of Graston Technique a form of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization.
Graston Technique is often performed by Physical Therapists, Massage therapists, Chiropractors, Occupational Therapists.
Performing Graston Technique is fun because stainless steal instruments amplifies tissue fibrosis to therapists hands the way fingers sometimes can’t. In other words its very easy to find misaligned and tight muscles fibers or someone could say areas of tension, pain, “knots” and fix them. It is also great working with secondary soft tissue pain that is caused by arthritic joints, spine problems, knee, shoulder injuries. And post op, by reducing healing time and bad scar formation similar like massage, but with more precision due to special instrument shapes.
