What is IASTM therapy? It’s all in the name – instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization. Tissue dysfunction is treatable, especially if it’s being caused by chronic inflammation. When treating tissue injuries, IASTM tools are used to break down adhesions or scar tissues which can form. The primary benefit of this treatment is IASTM causes less damage or is gentler in application than massaging with the hand.
As you’ll find with the gua sha tools that make up these IASTM tool kits, they have a sharp area which allows them to be pressed deep into the soft tissue. Oftentimes, it can reach into areas hands cannot. To this degree, some have said IASTM is more effective than hand massage in treating certain injuries. IASTM techniques can be used anywhere on the body, as tools come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Similar to gua sha, the results are instant!
These sort of IASTM tools are used by the belief that by decreasing scar tissue, this increase circulation. This then triggers muscle tissue to heal at a cellular level. It takes a skilled practitioner to know precisely how to use these tiny instruments. In some cases, it could be pinching, pulling, scraping, or pressing. The right amount of pressure needs to be used, as to break down fascia adhesions without causing injury or discomfort.
