Muscles and ligaments have a specific orientation in which they form and move. When you get injured, that orientation is disrupted due to a tear or injury of some sort, your body will lay down as much collagen fibers and as fast as it can to help it heal in any orientation. After there are enough fibers the body will then start to slowly take away some of that tissue to try and make it as close as it can to what it looked and functioned like prior. This is where you get “scar tissue” and jumbled up tissue that is caused by injury or all sorts and can also be the cause of some of that stiffness and pain that you may be feeling in between injuries. Soft tissue chiropractor care can help you in best way.
Soft tissue work could include working on muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. One of the techniques that is used here is something sometimes referred to as Graston, or Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM). This tool can help bring in more blood flow and wake up the neurovascular system so that they will start moving better and healing quicker. When you have this done on an area that needs work, it usually is “bumpy” or “gritty” type feeling. These are some of the things, adhesions or scar tissue, in the soft tissue that aren’t right. This treatment is trying to break that up by getting the brain to become aware of the area and come back and try and reconfigure everything as well as bring in more blood flow to improve healing.
