Get answers to common questions about Graston Technique.
Graston Technique uses stainless-steel instruments to detect and treat soft-tissue restrictions. Therapists use controlled strokes to break up adhesions, promote localized blood flow, and stimulate healing. Sessions are focused, effective, and often combined with stretching and strengthening for lasting results.
Some tenderness or mild soreness is common after Graston Technique, typically lasting 24â72 hours. Your therapist will adjust pressure to your comfort, and recommend ice, hydration, and gentle stretches to minimize discomfort and support healing.
Treatment frequency depends on injury severity: acute issues often improve in one to three sessions, while chronic adhesions may require four to eight visits. We combine Graston with stretching, strengthening, and reassessment to build a tailored recovery plan.
When performed by a trained therapist, Graston Technique is generally safe. However, it isn't appropriate for open wounds, active infections, blood clotting disorders, uncontrolled diabetes, or immediate post-surgical sites. Always disclose health history so clinicians can modify or defer treatment.
Expect a focused assessment, targeted instrument strokes, and brief periods of pressure or mild scraping sensation. Skin may redden or show slight petechiaeânormal responses. As an add-on, your therapist will integrate Graston findings with massage or exercises to reinforce mobility gains.
Yes. Graston Technique is offered as a targeted add-on to massages at XCAPE. It requires additional time and a small fee, so request it when booking. Inform your therapist about medical issues so we can adapt pressure or recommend alternatives.
