00 — What it is

What is IASTM?

IASTM uses specialized stainless-steel instruments to gently glide over the skin and detect areas of restriction or tissue dysfunction. These instruments allow for precise treatment of adhesions, scar tissue, and fascial restrictions that may not respond to traditional manual therapy alone. The technique helps stimulate the body's natural healing response, improve blood flow, and promote healthy tissue remodeling.
