Myofascial Release Therapy to Alleviate Chronic Pain
Myofascial restrictions can be caused by postural dysfunction, trauma, inflammatory conditions and/or surgeries. When these restrictions occur, they can produce tensile pressures up to 2,000 pounds per square inch on sensitive structure and lead to chronic pain. It essentially creates a ‘straight-jacket’ of pain around the tissue and can keep you in a cycle of pain.

Femina PT offers Fascial Stretch Therapy™, an assisted-stretching system that unlocks the flexibility potential in your body! FST™ is a unique system of therapy & training that dramatically improves your flexibility by lengthening your fascia.
Fascia is the connective tissue that envelops all structures of the body, effectively connecting them together. The problem is that fascia will thicken & shorten when any of your tissues are under stress from poor posture, improper body mechanics, lack of exercise, injury, surgery, disease or over-training. This process is accelerated when the body (and, therefore the tissues) are dehydrated.

What is Graston Technique?
Graston Technique is a type of manual therapy that uses stainless steel instruments to treat dysfunction and pain in connective tissue. It is form of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation. While the instruments may look a bit medieval, treatments should not cause extreme pain. The tools are made of stainless steel and are either concave or convex-shaped. They have rounded edges that are not sharp but can be more precise compared to a therapist’s hands. These design elements assist in diagnosing the location and isolating the treatment of a connective tissue lesion. Graston Technique is well researched and has been proven to improve tissue quality while decreasing healing time.
