Graston Technique (AKA Blading)
Break Through Pain and Restore Movement
Break Through Pain and Restore Movement
The Graston Technique, also known as blading, is a unique massage therapy approach that utilizes stainless steel tools to address scar tissue, adhesions, and restricted blood flow. This targeted technique can be highly effective in promoting healing and restoring pain-free movement.
During a Graston Technique session, the therapist applies gentle pressure using specialized stainless steel tools to glide over the affected area. This process helps to:
- Break Up Scar Tissue and Adhesions: Scar tissue and adhesions can restrict movement and cause pain. Blading helps break down these restrictions, improving flexibility and range of motion.
- Increase Blood Flow: By stimulating the area, blading can increase blood flow, which promotes healing and reduces inflammation.
- Reduce Pain: Improved blood flow and reduced adhesions can significantly decrease pain and discomfort.
