Break down scar tissue and resolve fascial restrictions.
The Fascial Abrasion Technique involves the use of a tool to break down scar tissue and resolve fascial restrictions. Fascial Abrasion Technique is used and not limited to treating painful conditions that have resulted from an injury or overuse disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, cervical and lumbar strain, tendonosis (Achilles, rotator cuff) patella-femoral knee pain, tennis and golfers elbow.
How does it work?
It is performed using a specially designed instrument, known as the Fascial Abrasion Technique (FAT) tool which identifies restriction and treats areas of fascial tension. The contoured shape of the instrument allows clinicians to use the tool to scan the body and locate the presence of fascial restrictions. The same instrument is then used to apply precise pressure to reduce fascial tension.
How does it work?
Fascial abrasion works by providing a controlled micro trauma that stimulates specialised nerve endings in the skin and fascia that help to normalise Fascial tone. The FAT-Tool can also be used to treat scar tissue that may be causing pain or limiting motion. It can also be used to stimulate a local inflammatory response that supports the rebuilding of injured soft tissue.
