Why not use a spoon? Alot can happen with just working with a spoon.
Love this!
doc is it possible to the birds that i'll share the lonely view?
scar tissue that i wish you saw

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you, 'cause With the birds I'll share
With the birds I'll share this lonely viewin'
Explanation would be good 🤦♀️
Lol at calling this evidence based. Efficacious, perhaps, but your narratives lavk biological plausibility.

@@grastontechnique Someone doesn't understand the science :D
Amazing...
Is this the news?
Thank you 🙏
Feel like a milder version of a traditional method used in China called Gua Sha😂 I saw some saying the theory between the two is completely different, as Gua Sha targets more to the blood flow etc and Graston technique more to muscles etc… But in ancient time, people didn’t have such a good understanding of anatomy. So they couldn’t explain that much in detail or with precision about why a technique works. If you know more about traditional Chinese machine, then you would have probably heard of a bunch of abstract concepts they invented, like Qi (a direct translation would be something like breath or air), Xue (blood), Jingluo ( this’s actually a bit like lines of muscles and connective tissues having related functions)….They just invented these terms to explain what they found useful, but they’re not necessary all accurate. Anyway, I feel the main difference is Gua Sha would usually go harder on you… By the way, if you apply Gua Sha on healthy tissue, then there wouldn’t be much Sha.
Worked so well for my shin splints
I have intense fibrosis front and back due to scoliosis posture issues. The therapist has to press pretty deep with the instrument to get into all layers, I can feel EACH CRUNCHY KNOTTED FIBER as the device passes over it and I have to grit my teeth, but for several days afterward I’ll have full flexibility, so IT’S WORTH IT! Ask your physical therapist about this method and give it at least a couple tries.
Were there any long lasting relief?
the girl is so so so beautiful
This really helped my back out after some muscle injuries I experienced
Can this work with a torn rotator cuff or say a partial bicep tear
Is there supposed to be sound?
Graston Technique is a unique, evidence-based form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to effectively address scar tissue and fascial restrictions through "comprehensive training" have your advertising staff learn English grammar! Your training a clinician will not improve patient outcomes, treating a patient will accomplish this.
@graston technique--does this technique come from the East Asian medicine technique called gua sha?
yes
(0:25) You hit a spot. He wanted more in that area.
Does it break down deep abdominal adhesions
its worth giving it a shot - same for systemic enzymes like naottkinase and serrapeptase. You can also try treatment that use cups, suction and movement or try the grit bar that Barefoot Rehab uses. Also, you can find an adhesion release specialist or try shockwave therapy
How much does this therapy typically cost? Compared to other therapies
The therapist who works on us charges $75 per person per visit. Not sure what the going rate is elsewhere.
I want to do this or get a treatment for my brother. Any suggestions on at home, or what instruments to use?
I came here to see this technique after seeing a PR use a butter knife!
@@karabarton9994 amazing
@@AngelekaL PT🙃czcams.com/video/f84BPiQr_kU/video.html My leg is sore after using the knife 😳
What a rip off over 2.5k for 4 pieces and they do NOT sell them individually because they want all your money.
It seemed like he really enjoyed that.
Yes!! Look how his ears are moving!!
I just bought a tool, does it work on knuckles? I have some pain on both hands from boxing
Helped the pain in my finger a lot.
I got a lot of bruising from the Graston Technique treatment last Friday. I have a lot of bruises on the front of my leg. This was from a provider on the Graston Website. I am thinking about not going back. It may take a while to go away.
Was just diagnosed with CTS. Wonder if this would help me I will have to look into it
Lol if by unique you mean completely stealing one of the oldest concepts in massage therapy/wellness
It’s not stealing. Gua Sha and the Graston technique are different. Gua Sha stimulates blood flow in the skin and capillaries while Graston targets muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc to increase collagen production. They’re similar because you repeatedly stroke over the skin with smooth instruments but their intended effects are completely different. You wouldn’t use the Graston technique on your face for your daily skincare routine 😂
I have post surgical fibrosis. Can this technique help restore my hand to full normalcy?
Yes
One of the best things to ever happen to me
Just got it done yesterday so thankful 🙏🏽
Nice I want to try this
Dry needling. Lmao. Look at the stupid alphabet soup of certifications they try to pass off as actual medical training. Snake oil. It never stops. I'm dying laughing.
There is absolutely no reason to believe this works. Even on their own website you cannot find any peer reviewed sources that validate this nonsense. This guy just screams "snake oil," and the unprofessional way that they (Graston advocates) interact with people online is only more reason to distrust them. Read: "The website (Graston website) lists articles in the popular press, poster presentations, and testimonials, but only 3 citations that appear to be acceptable evidence from peer-reviewed journals. I will call them (1) (2) and (3). A closer look reveals that they are not what they seem. (1) and (2) are listed as having been published in the “Journal of the American College of Sports Medicine.” There is no such journal. They obviously meant the journal Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise which is the official journal of the American College of Sports Medicine. Study (2), by Sevier et al., was not listed in the table of contents of that journal for the issue cited (Vol 27, No. 5, 1995) and was not found by searching the journal’s entire website. It was also not listed on PubMed. If such an article exists, it apparently was not published in a peer-reviewed journal, and certainly not in the journal they say it was published in." - sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-graston-technique-inducing-microtrauma-with-instruments/
Not sure why you would cite an 11 year-old commentary written by a retired Physician who obviously did not understand physiology. Here's a link to the abstract from 1995 that you couldn't find: journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/Citation/1995/05001/MORPHOLOGIC_AND_FUNCTIONAL_CHANGES_IN_RAT_ACHILLES.1150.aspx But if you're so so concerned about evidence, why are you focused on Level 5 evidence?? Since you couldn't find any peer-reviewed sources that validate the clinical effectiveness of GT, I'll help you out there too: grastontechnique.com/Clinicians/Resources/ There's about 40 articles Level 2 or higher. In summary: -Various levels of emerging evidence suggest the efficacy of IASTM for reducing pain, improving ROM, and improving function (Cheatham 2016, Lambert 2017, Thompson 2018) -Grade 1 evidence supports the use of IASTM to improve lower extremity range of motion in physically active adults (Syeda 2020) -Moderate evidence supports the short-term use of IASTM for improving ankle dorsiflexion (Gardiner-Shires 2020) -Moderate evidence supports the use of IASTM for improving ROM in uninjured participants, and improving pain and function in select injured patients (Seffrin 2019) -Moderate evidence supports the use of IASTM combined w/ exercise for the treatment of tendinopathies (Thompson 2018) -Moderate evidence supports the use of IASTM to increase glenohumeral ROM in overhead athletes (Hussey 2018) I challenge you to find another manual soft tissue technique with this level of evidence!
Worked wonders on my hip and neck bro. Don't knock it unless you've tried it. I also go to regular massage, chiro and acupuncture. The combo works well but if you had to choose I'd say this one worked best on me.
Does it work for Cubital Tunnel Syndrome also?
Can this help with carpal tunnel syndrome?
Absolutely
You state the following "Separates and breaks down collagen cross-links, and splays and stretches connective tissue and muscle fibers; facilitates reflex changes in the chronic muscle holding pattern (inhibition of abnormal tone/guarding leading to pain reduction via improved sensory input); alters/inhibits spinal reflex activity (facilitated segment); increases the rate and amount of blood flow to and from the area (angiogenesis vs. immediate local increases in blood flow); increases cellular activity in the region, including fibroblasts and mast cells and Increases histamine response secondary to mast cell activity." The problem here is that you don't cite any study results supporting any of these effects. Suggest you add evidence - otherwise, this is just your opinion.

just had a first physical therapy session for feet issues and they did this to me on my calves (i have plantar fasciitis inflammation) and my calves are tight and sore and this felt amazing! was a bit uncomfortable towards the heel area but felt great after it was done. i bet with more sessions it helps even more.
This works, it's miraculous
I had this performed during my therapy for my knee replacement surgery .... I had issues with my lateral collateral tendon. Couldn’t believe the difference. If you really think about it ... it allows very pinpoint pressure on muscle tissue. Not something you can do with ur fingers. Good video.
I’ve been going through therapy after my total knee surgery. This process really helped my collateral tendon issues big time. It works. Later.
Does it help improve ROM of the hip capsule after a hip replacement done 15 years ago.I am told problem is not the hardware but the hip capsule.Is this kind of "soft tissue" amenable to this technique?
Yes
At 0:38, palmer , thermer hypo emerenisis What? 😯
Thenar and hypo-thenar eminences
@@cottntale1 Meaning ?
"Gua sha" is what this is called. You can't just make something your own by slapping your name on it.
There are a few factors in exercises to relieve carpal tunnel syndrome pain. One resource I discovered that successfully combines these is the Dariks Pain Destroyer (google it if you're interested) it's the best blueprint i've heard of. Check out all the extraordinary information
In Alternative Medicine schools they teach you the history of techniques and how the name changed as westerners traveled to the east to learn from the source
Graston tools are unique.
Ummmm....this is an ancient technique that was born a thousand years ago called GUA SHA!!!!
Ummmm... no it isn't, but thanks for playing! Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese medical treatment in which the skin is scraped to produce petechiae. Practitioners believe Gua Sha stimulates blood flow and healing by releasing toxins from injured areas. Although it would be considered a form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, the intent, and theory are very different than the Graston Technique.® Both techniques involve repeated pressured strokes over lubricated skin with a smooth edged instrument, however, Gua Sha targets the skin and the capillaries with the intention of affecting blood stasis, while the Graston Technique® targets underlying muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. Creating petechiae and subsequent bruising is the intent with Gua Sha, this is never intended with GT. One application of the Graston Technique® for chronic conditions involves inducing controlled microtrauma to stimulate an inflammatory response, but the intent is NOT to rupture capillaries and cause bruising. The intent is to stimulate fibroblasts to increase collagen production. Other applications for Graston Technique® include the stimulation of proprioceptors to address movement dysfunction, and affecting nociceptors to inhibit pain. These are not intended effects of Gua Sha.
No actually this is completely different to gua sha
Does it work for muscles paralyzed by a stroke?
@@americarocks1776 thanks
I had graston done on my neck and upper back after being in multiple car accidents. The first time was painful the next couple of days, but after that I could turn my head to either side immediately which hadn't happened in probably 8 or so years. I had tried everything. It totally worked. Don't comment unless you have tried it.
that sounds amazing. Ive had multiple car accidents, mountain bike accidents, falls from rollar blading...etc. My neck and shoulders are on a pain scale of 4-5 EVERYDAY. I am scheduled to have an epidural. I am thinking this might be the solution. Ive tried the chiropractor but my neck is so seized up he can never even get it to adjust anymore.
@@christinelance8337 did you ever get it done?
@@johnterrell2825 no not yet John...would love to!!
As a Mt I'm definitely interested. Never tried it so apologizes for the comment!!!!!!!!!
