Graston Technique in Silverdale, WA
Instrument-assisted soft tissue treatment, the same approach professional sports teams use for stubborn muscle and tendon problems.
For the injuries adjusting alone cannot reach
Some problems live in the soft tissue: muscles, tendons, ligaments, and the connective tissue that binds them together. Old strains heal with rough, disorganized scar tissue. Overuse leaves tendons thickened and cranky. These injuries often linger for months because nothing is actually treating the tissue itself.
The Graston Technique uses a set of precisely contoured stainless steel instruments to detect and treat those restrictions. Drawn across the skin, the instruments let Dr. Siegel feel exactly where the tissue is roughened, then work those areas to break down adhesions and stimulate the body to remodel the tissue properly.
Certified, and nearly painless
Dr. Siegel is a certified Graston Technique provider. Treatment is a fairly painless experience for most patients, and it is used by professional sports teams and large employers for exactly the kinds of soft tissue and occupational injuries that otherwise refuse to resolve. One patient put it simply: after Graston treatment on her foot, she could walk better.
