The Graston Technique® incorporates a patented form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to effectively detect and treat scar tissue and restrictions that affect normal function.

The Technique:

• Separates and breaks down collagen cross-links, and splays and stretches connective tissue and muscle fibers

• Increases skin temperature

• Facilitates reflex changes in the chronic muscle holding pattern

• Alters spinal reflux activity (facilitated segment)

• Increases the rate and amount of blood flow to and from the area

• Increases cellular activity in the region, including fibroblasts and mast cells

• Increases histamine response secondary to mast cell activity
