What is IASTM?
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) uses specially designed tools to help break down scar tissue, improve tissue mobility, and stimulate healing. I use my tools to relax tough tissues. I find the body responds better to this treatment than to pressing down on painful trigger points.
