Scar Tissue Treatment in Middleburg Heights Ohio
Old scar tissue doesn't resolve on its own. Lets resolve it together.
Introduction
Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization uses a specialized stainless steel tool to address soft tissue that's stopped functioning the way it should — whether that's fascial restriction limiting your range of motion, or adhesion formed from a prior injury that never fully remodeled.
What It Actually Does
The instrument allows precise, directed pressure along a muscle or fascial plane — breaking down adhesion and restriction with a degree of specificity manual technique alone can't replicate.
How This Differs From Cup Scraping
Cup scraping relies on suction combined with movement. IASTM applies a rigid instrument with direct, concentrated pressure. Both mobilize soft tissue, but IASTM accesses denser, more entrenched restriction that suction-based technique isn't suited to resolve.
