Press Release Body: Graston Technique Makes New Strides in Treating Pain Dr. Emmett J. Hughes, owner and clinical director of Huntington Health and Healing Center has been using Graston(r) technique for the past four years. Injuries previously thought to be refractory to treatment have been responding very well to Graston(r) technique. Scar tissue, tendonitis and tendonosis, muscle strains, ligament sprain, and adhesions all heal faster with the use of Graston(r) technique.
Graston(r) technique involves using six stainless steel instruments developed specifically for soft tissue treatments. They are shaped for treating various body parts and areas, as well as for specific conditions. The have a unique shape and have beveled edges on the treatment surfaces.
The results are truly amazing. Most of the major professional sports teams have been using this technique for the past few years with much success. Not only do athletes benefit from the technique, but many in the general population have experienced this remarkable breakthrough.
The way that Graston(r) technique works is that the mechanical pressure applied using the instruments stimulates fibroblasts, the cells that make collagen to make new collagen. This not only breaks up the scar tissue and adhesions in the injured area, but also re-models the tissue. Additionally, it stimulates blood flow to the area and opens up microvasculature in the tissue, speeding up the healing process.
Due to the shape of the instruments, the treatment tends to be much deeper and well-tolerated than other soft tissue treatments. This allows healing to start much sooner following surgery, sprains and strains, as well as muscle spasms and trigger point therapy.
While Graston(r) technique doesn't replace other techniques, such as manipulation, massage therapy, or acupuncture, it has truly revolutionized the treatment of soft tissue. When in the hands of an experienced practitioner, there are some amazing results with this exciting new technique.
Dr. Hughes is the only certified Graston(r) technique practitioner in the Huntington area and has traveled as far away as South America to treat athletes using this technique.
