Quote of the Day

Don't spend your precious time asking 'Why isn't the world a better place?' It will only be time wasted. The question to ask is 'How can I make it better?' To that there is an answer.

 Leo F. Buscaglia


Soft Tissue Mobilization

What is Soft Tissue Mobilization?

Soft tissue mobilization breaks up inelastic or fibrous muscle tissue such as scar tissue, move tissue fluids, and relax muscle tension. This procedure consists of rhythmic stretching and deep pressure. AT A Different Approach - PT for Women (ADAPT), your physical therapist will localize the area of greatest tissue restriction through layer-by-layer assessment. Once identified, these restrictions can be mobilized with a wide variety of techniques. The goal of these techniques is to restore normal texture to the tissue and reduce associated pain.
