ASTYM

ASTYM is a type of physical therapy treatment that uses specialized tools to break up scar tissue and damaged soft tissue. This can help to improve range of motion, reduce pain, and speed up recovery from injuries. ASTYM is a non-invasive treatment, which means there are no injections or incisions. The tools are applied topically (on top of the skin) to locate dysfunctional (unhealthy) tissue, and to transfer mild to moderate pressure to the underlying soft tissue structures. This stimulates tissue turnover, scar tissue resorption, and the regeneration of tendons, muscles, and other soft tissue structures. ASTYM treatment is typically provided twice weekly for four to five weeks (about 9 total treatment sessions). It is often used in conjunction with other physical therapy treatments, such as stretching, strengthening, and functional exercises.

ASTYM has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of conditions, including:

Sprains and strains
Tendonitis
Arthritis
Fractures
Herniated discs
Spinal stenosis
Nerve compression
Post-surgical rehabilitation

ASTYM is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of soft tissue conditions. It can help to improve range of motion, reduce pain, and speed up recovery from injuries. Here are some of the benefits of ASTYM treatment:

Improved range of motion: Astym can help to break up scar tissue and improve range of motion. This can help you to regain your full range of motion and function after an injury.
Reduced pain: Astym can help to reduce pain by stimulating the body’s natural healing process. This can help you to feel better and get back to your activities sooner.
Speeded up recovery: Astym can help to speed up recovery by breaking up scar tissue and improving range of motion. This can help you to get back to your normal activities sooner
