Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization at Team Rehabilitation

Heal Faster, Restore Function, and Relieve Pain with IASTM Therapy

At Team Rehabilitation, our certified therapists provide Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), a proven treatment designed to stimulate healing in damaged tissues and reduce pain. Using specialized tools such as Astym®, Graston Technique®, and Hawk Grips®, we help patients recover from injuries, improve mobility, and return to their favorite activities. With our patient-focused approach and trusted expertise, IASTM delivers lasting results by addressing the root cause of pain rather than masking symptoms.

Why Choose Team Rehabilitation?

Many of our therapists are certified in IASTM and have extensive experience using these advanced techniques to treat a wide range of conditions. By combining the precision of specialized tools with the skill of manual therapy, we can target scar tissue, adhesions, and other restrictions that limit healing.

At Team Rehabilitation, we believe in long-term solutions. Our programs are designed not just to relieve pain, but to stimulate your body’s natural healing response, regenerate healthy tissue, and restore proper movement so you can stay active.

Common Conditions We Treat

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization is highly effective for conditions such as tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, Achilles tendinitis, muscle strains, and post-surgical scarring. It can be used on nearly any area of the body where tissues have failed to heal properly or scar tissue is interfering with mobility and function.

Our Comprehensive Treatment Approach

During IASTM, your therapist will use specially designed tools to apply targeted pressure to muscles, tendons, ligaments, or scar tissue. The therapy follows a structured protocol that encourages blood flow, stimulates tissue regeneration, and reduces restrictions. Treatment typically takes 8–10 visits, with guided movement and stretching exercises recommended to support healing. Patients often notice meaningful results quickly, as IASTM delivers long-term benefits with short-term therapy.
