Skills and techniques

Myofascial Technique:

A technique used in physical therapy and massage therapy to relieve muscle tension and pain by applying sustained pressure to the myofascial connective tissue. This therapy aims to release tightness and improve the flexibility of muscles and fascia, which are the thin, web-like connective tissues that surround and support muscles. It’s often used to treat conditions like muscle knots, trigger points, and soft tissue restrictions.

IASTM (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) Tools:

These specialized tools are used to apply controlled pressure to soft tissues. They can break down scar tissue, improve range of motion, and reduce pain, making them valuable in sports and remedial massage.

Joint Mobilization:

This technique involves the skilled passive movement of a joint in specific directions and at varying speeds to restore its range of motion. It can be used for joints that are restricted due to injury, surgery, or chronic conditions.

Functional Mobilization:

This technique focuses on functional movements and activities, aiming to restore normal biomechanics and improve athletic performance.

Sports (A.K.A Athletic) Taping:

A technique used in sports medicine and physical therapy to provide support, stability, and protection to various parts of the body, particularly joints and muscles.
