Are you suffering from a soft tissue injury? Do you have scars or adhesions that are causing pain and limiting your movement? If so, then the Graston Technique may be the answer you’ve been searching for!
The Graston technique is an effective form of therapy that involves instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM). This manual therapy incorporates specialized ergonomic tools that gently massage and brush the skin. These unique and innovative tools are used to heal soft tissue injuries such as sprains, strains, subluxations, and repetitive use injuries.
The Graston technique is also effective in treating other conditions such as lower back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff tears, quadricep pain, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, and even headaches.
Our physical therapists at IPA Manhattan Physical Therapy utilize a holistic approach to total care. We assess our patients’ emotional and physical health while considering other lifestyle factors to achieve optimal care and successful recovery.

How Can The Graston Technique Help Me?
The Graston Technique helps break up scar tissue or muscle tension to increase the range of motion of joints, accelerate the healing process, build the strength of muscle fibers and reduce pain. This treatment is beneficial after an injury when scar tissue or adhesions may have developed. Injuries that may result in adhesions include shin splints, pulled hamstrings, meniscal tears, and more. With the Graston technique, you will experience less pain and more functional mobility.
Other benefits of the Graston Technique include:
- Reduction in inflammation
- Reduction in pain for a better quality of life
- Boost in cellular activity for good health
- Breakdown of collagen cross-links
- Increased mobility and ability to perform daily tasks
- Increased rate of volume and blood flow to affected areas to enhance healing
During your initial consultation at IPA Manhattan Physical Therapy, one of our holistic therapists will design a treatment plan that appeals to your physical and psychological health. In addition to the Graston Technique, your PT may integrate strategies such as chiropractic care, massage, nutrition, and a structured fitness routine.
