The Graston Technique is a unique method of identifying and treating areas of the body presenting signs of chronic inflammation or soft tissue fibrosis. Using precisely designed, hand-held instruments, chiropractors move these stainless steel instruments over affected areas, searching for adhesions causing pain and muscle ache. Once a Tacoma chiropractor makes contact with an adhesion, they use the instruments to break up and dissolve fascial restrictions and scar tissue caused by soft tissue injuries.
