Dr. St. Pierre explains the role of Soft Tissue Mobilization.

We utilize progressive many healing techniques in our office, but some of our most trusted options include a few versions of Soft Tissue Mobilization. They are a classification of therapies that utilize instruments, the hands and/or tools to manually manipulate soft tissue structures such as muscle, connective tissue, fascia and skin to move, heal and feel better. We feel these techniques allow the tissue to respond more appropriately to movement and exercise therapy, and can simply help decrease pain that is generated from tight and restricted tissue. Most any sports medicine Physical Therapist, Athletic Trainer and Chiropractors utilize these techniques to promote accelerated healing. If classic Physical Therapy or Traditional Chiropractic Therapy has failed or plateaued, maybe these treatment strategies could assist you!
