What To Expect With Graston in Calgary AB

Graston Technique is a form of manual therapy used by Dr. Aaron D'Amico at the Chiropractic Center For Health. It involves the use of specially designed stainless steel instruments to perform soft tissue mobilization and massage. Graston Technique is often employed to address various musculoskeletal issues and conditions. Graston Technique helps these conditions by targeting and addressing soft tissue dysfunction, scar tissue, and adhesions, which are often contributing factors to pain, limited range of motion, and functional impairment. By promoting tissue healing and restoring proper tissue function, Graston can be an effective component of rehabilitation and pain management strategies.

Graston Technique is proven to help with the following:

Soft Tissue Injuries: Graston Technique uses specially designed stainless steel instruments with beveled edges to detect and target areas of scar tissue and adhesions in soft tissues. The instruments are applied to the skin's surface over the injured area, and the therapist uses specific strokes to break down the scar tissue and adhesions. This process stimulates the body's natural healing response, increases blood flow to the injured area, and helps to remodel and realign the damaged tissues. As a result, pain is reduced, and soft tissue healing is promoted, facilitating a faster recovery from injuries.

Chronic Pain: Graston Technique can alleviate chronic pain by addressing the underlying soft tissue restrictions and inflammation that contribute to pain. The instruments are used to identify and treat areas of soft tissue dysfunction, reducing muscle tightness and inflammation. By improving tissue function and reducing irritants, Graston can provide relief from ongoing pain and discomfort.

Range of Motion Issues: Graston Technique targets restrictions in soft tissues, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments, that may limit joint mobility. By breaking down scar tissue and adhesions around the affected joint, Graston helps restore the normal range of motion. This can be particularly helpful for conditions like frozen shoulder, where tissue restrictions limit shoulder movement.

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation: After surgery, scar tissue formation can be a common issue that restricts movement and causes discomfort. Graston Technique is used to break down and remodel scar tissue, improving tissue flexibility and reducing post-operative adhesions. This can accelerate the healing process and enhance the effectiveness of post-surgical rehabilitation.

Sports Injuries: Graston Technique is often used in sports medicine to address injuries commonly seen in athletes. It can help reduce inflammation, improve tissue function, and relieve pain associated with sports-related injuries. Athletes can benefit from quicker recovery times and a faster return to training and competition.
