IASTM technique is a soft tissue therapy using specially shaped steel instruments to smooth scarred or knotted muscle and fascial tissue. This therapy is great for post surgical scars, chronic injuries, or even chronic pain.
This innovative technique is highly effective at breaking down scar tissue and other types of soft tissue adhesions, which can help to improve the overall function and range of motion of the affected joints and muscles.
One of the reasons why IASTM Technique is so effective is that it is able to target the specific areas of the body that are affected by scar tissue and adhesions. The stainless steel instruments that are used in the technique are designed with specific curvatures that match the contours of the body, which allows practitioners to apply pressure to the affected areas with precision. This precision targeting helps to increase blood flow to the area, which can promote healing and reduce inflammation.
In addition to its effectiveness, the IASTM Technique is also a non-invasive and drug-free form of treatment. Unlike surgery, the IASTM Technique does not require incisions or anesthesia, which means that patients experience minimal pain and discomfort during treatment. This makes it an ideal option for patients who are looking for an alternative to surgery or who are unable to undergo surgery due to other health conditions.
One personal story that can be an example of the effectiveness of IASTM Technique is an experience of electricians and carpal tunnel. During his time working in Washington State, Dr. David was a referral partner with the Local Electrician’s union. As it is common in this field, he started to see a large influx of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. With a regularly scheduled course of care, Dr. David saw that electricians who underwent IASTM Technique treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome were 80% less likely to require surgery than those who did not receive the treatment. This is a powerful testament to the effectiveness of the IASTM Technique in helping patients engage in both work and home activities after injury.

I chose to pursue massage therapy after experiencing the benefits first-hand. I had sustained injuries from working manual labor and powerlifting in my early and mid-20’s. After receiving effective massage treatment sessions, I was soon on my way to full range of movement and being pain-free. Having experienced these changes I began my journey into massage therapy. I wanted to build a career helping people whose lives and mobility were impacted and hindered by pain. Taking a scientific and evidence-based approach, I have been able to help my clients reduce their pain and help prevent further injury. I have worked alongside several Physical Therapists and Chiropractors for 6 years. I have been fortunate to have had their mentorship along the way. I utilize Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue, MFR (also known as Myofascial Release), Neuromuscular Therapy, Cupping, Kinesio Taping, Gaston and MET (Muscle Energy Technique).
