Graston Technique Demo: Plantar Fascitis/ Morton's Neuroma/ PTTD



Graston Technique® is a form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables practitioners to improve scar tissue, fascial restrictions and range of motion. The theory behind this very interesting technique is that by using a tool to introduce microtrauma into an area of excessive scarring and/or soft tissue fibrosis an inflammatory response will occur that will encourage the healing process. The use of tools helps to get to the root of the problem, but it’s also intended to reduce stress on the therapist’s hands.
