Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization in Minneapolis MN

IASTM is a hands-on technique that uses specially designed tools to gently work on your muscles, tendons, and fascia (the connective tissue around your muscles). Think of it as a focused massage that helps break up tension, improve blood flow, and encourage your body’s natural healing process.
When muscles or tissues get tight, sore, or injured, they can develop little “knots” or restrictions that limit movement and cause discomfort. Using smooth, contoured tools, I can detect and treat these problem areas more effectively than fingers alone. Most people describe the feeling as a mix of gentle pressure and a light scraping sensation — and many notice an immediate improvement in movement and relief afterward.
IASTM can be helpful for old injuries, chronic tightness, or areas that just never seem to loosen up. It’s safe, targeted, and designed to get you moving and feeling better, faster.
