Graston Technique® (GT) is an instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) treatment protocol used by physical and occupational therapists, hand therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, massage therapists, and other licensed professionals, to treat soft tissue injuries. The technique utilizes stainless steel instruments/tools which are used to comb over and “catch” on dysfunctional tissue, which immediately identifies areas of restriction or dysfunction.
GT instruments/tools enable clinicians to treat soft tissue lesions with the depth, pressure and specificity necessary to affect the condition at the site of the pain, as well as following the kinetic chain to find and treat the cause. Once the tissue dysfunction has been identified, the instruments/tools break up the scar tissue so it can be absorbed by the body.
By incorporating stretching, strengthening and ice in the IASTM treatment and rehab process, clinicians can rebuild the soft tissue injury into healthy functioning tissue. GT instruments/tools are not meant to replace a clinician’s hands, but to complement them in a manner not possible with other modalities or soft tissue approaches. GT is more than just another "tool in the toolbox."
GT is used by outpatient facilities, industrial sites, and professional and amateur sports organizations worldwide that want the best IASTM treatment option for their patients. It's also taught in the curriculum at respected colleges and universities.
