FEATURED TREATMENT AST YM/ I ASTM TREATMENT
ASTYM Therapy addresses scarring, fibrosis and soft tissue degeneration resulting from trauma, surgery, or overuse. Our Physical Therapists use instruments to treat painful areas and start the healing process. As the body heals, exercise and activity help guide the healing which will reduce pain and increase function. Most patients experience significant change in their systems within the first 3-4 visits. Diagnoses that respond well to ASTYM:
