At our Bend, Oregon clinic, Dr. Jason Kremer proudly offers Graston Technique®, a cutting-edge IASTM therapy designed to accelerate healing and improve musculoskeletal function. Whether you’re recovering from a recent injury or looking to prevent future issues, this advanced treatment can help you regain strength and mobility more effectively.
What is Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)?
IASTM is a specialized manual therapy that uses uniquely designed stainless steel instruments to detect and treat fascial restrictions, scar tissue buildup, and soft tissue dysfunction. Unlike traditional massage or manual therapy, IASTM applies controlled microtrauma to the affected tissues, stimulating a natural healing response. This technique promotes better blood flow, reduces inflammation, and enhances the body's ability to repair damaged tissue.
Benefits of Graston Technique® and IASTM
Graston Technique® is one of the most well-known and research-backed IASTM methods. It has been proven effective for treating a variety of conditions, including:
-
Plantar Fasciitis – Reduces heel pain and improves mobility
-
Tendonitis (Shoulder, Elbow, Knee) – Speeds up recovery and decreases inflammation
-
Neck and Back Pain – Alleviates chronic tension and stiffness
-
Scar Tissue & Post-Surgical Recovery – Breaks down adhesions that can restrict movement
-
Sports Injuries – Enhances performance and prevents future injuries
By targeting soft tissue dysfunction, IASTM helps patients experience faster recovery, reduced pain, and improved range of motion.
