Where did SASTM come from?
David Graston, a pioneer in the Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) industry, has created a method and instruments for treating soft tissue injuries. He developed tools and a technique to assist in his own recovery from carpal tunnel and skiing injury to his right knee. After years of research, development and feedback on the technique and tools, David developed the SASTM method and instruments. David continues to work with medical doctors, chiropractors, therapists, professional athletes and trainers from around the world who have experienced significant improvements in range of motion, flexibility, recovery time and performance that result from the use of the SASTM method and instruments.
How does SASTM work?
SASTM are the only instruments on the market that allow you to feel every little adhesion through the instrument.
Our physical therapists are able to effectively locate, treat, and break up adhesions while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. SASTM can detect and treat fascial restrictions, encourages rapid localization, and effectively treats areas exhibiting soft tissue fibrosis, chronic inflammation, or degeneration. SASTM will help to drastically decrease your amount of visits, improve your outcome of recovery from a sports injury or recent surgery, and get you back to enjoying life pain-free.
