Treatment for Soft Tissue Injuries in Calgary
At Westbrook Chiropractic Clinic, people with muscle injuries, tendon injuries, and neck pain in Calgary are dealt with using Graston Technique®. Graston Technique® is an innovative, patented form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to effectively break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions. The technique utilizes specially designed stainless steel instruments to specifically detect and effectively treat areas exhibiting soft tissue fibrosis or chronic inflammation.
