Benefit of Soft Tissue Therapy

The soft tissue therapy performed at Up 2 Speed Sports Wellness involves a manual (hands-on) approach to address the soft tissue component of the injury. Soft tissue includes muscles, tendons, ligaments, bursae, fascia and nerves. When injury to these tissues occurs, whether it's one traumatic episode (macrotrauma) or a series of small traumas over time (microtrauma), the body responds with inflammation.

Although part of the normal healing process, the presence of inflammation results in fibrous healing or scar tissue (adhesion) formation in and around the musculature, joints, and connective tissue layers. This very pain sensitive tissue limits muscle and joint range of motion anddisrupts normal movement patterns, therefore predisposing the patient to re-injury.

We Offer A Variety of Soft Tissue Therapy

The soft tissue and manual therapy techniques utilized at Up 2 Speed Sports effectively break and remodel scar tissue so that the fibrous tissue functions like normal non-injured soft tissue, resulting in pain-free, unrestricted, and efficient movement.

These active techniques also serve to reduce inflammation and improve circulation of fluids. In addition to treating injuries, this form of therapy is also effective in addressing repair & recovery of overworked muscles and chronic postural stress syndromes.

How Does Iastm Work?

Instruments effectively break down fascial restrictions and scar tissue. The ergonomic design of these instruments provides the clinician with the ability to locate restrictions and allows the clinician to treat the affected area with the appropriate amount of pressure. The introduction of controlled microtrauma to affected soft tissue structure causes the stimulation of local inflammatory response.

Microtrauma initiates reabsorption of inappropriate fibrosis or excessive scar tissue and facilitates a cascade of healing activities resulting in remodeling of affected soft tissue structures.

The Benefits of The Scrupper

Targeted IASTM treatments can have a number of benefits, such as:

- Faster pain relief

- Improved mobility

- Quicker rehabilitation and recovery

IASTM focuses on specific areas to relieve stiffness and improve range of motion. This allows you to perform exercises your physical therapist recommends to strengthen the injured area, which promotes healing and can help restore your normal function.
