Conditions Treated with IASTM

IASTM has proven to be effective in addressing various musculoskeletal conditions. Our chiropractors in Airdrie, AB utilize this advanced technique to treat the following conditions:

Soft Tissue Adhesions and Scar Tissue:

Whether it’s post-surgical scar tissue or adhesions caused by injury or trauma, IASTM can break down scar tissue and improve mobility in the affected area. By targeting specific areas of tension, IASTM helps release trigger points, relieve discomfort, and restore optimal muscle function.

Soft Tissue Injuries:

Injuries to ligaments, tendons, and other soft tissues can lead to pain, swelling, restricted range of motion, and tension. IASTM is highly effective in treating soft tissue injuries such as:

Sprains and strains: Stretching or tearing of ligaments, which are essential for stabilizing joints.

Contusions (bruises): Resulting from direct impact or trauma, which can lead to adhesion and scar tissue formation. IASTM helps in promoting proper healing and reducing complications.

Overuse Soft Tissue Injuries:

Overuse injuries occur due to repetitive stress on the body. Some examples of overuse soft tissue injuries that can be effectively treated with IASTM include:

Tendinitis: Inflammation of tendons, resulting in pain and limited range of motion.

Bursitis: Inflammation of bursae, the small fluid-filled sacs that cushion and protect joints.

Chronic Pain Management:

IASTM has shown positive results in managing chronic pain associated with conditions such as:

Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of joint cartilage and underlying bone, commonly affecting women aged 50 and older. IASTM helps in reducing pain and improving joint function.

Chronic back pain: Persistent pain lasting for 12 weeks or longer, even after initial treatment. IASTM can provide relief by addressing underlying soft tissue dysfunctions.
