GRASTON TECHNIQUE

Dr. Amy M. O’Donnell offers Graston Technique: an effective treatment for overuse, repetitive use & sports injuries

Soft tissue manipulation, improving function and decreasing pain

Graston Technique (GT) detects and treats scar tissue and adhesions in muscle, ligaments, tendons and fascia as result of overuse, injury, and even poor posture. These adhesions form similar to scars, for example, after scraping your skin. The tissue is laid down in a haphazard way and forms fibrotic, hard micro nodules which are not as “elastic” as the healthy tissue, leading to pain and dysfunction.
