SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION

What is Soft Tissue Mobilization? 

 

Soft tissue mobilization breaks up inelastic or fibrous muscle tissue such as scar tissue, moves tissue fluids, and relaxes muscle tension. This procedure consists of  stretching,  deep pressure and the use of specialized tools. Your therapist will localize the area of greatest tissue restriction through layer-by-layer assessment. Once identified, these restrictions can be mobilized with a wide variety of techniques. The goal of these techniques is to restore normal texture to the tissue and reduce associated pain. 

 

This proceedure may be included during your treatment session.
