Assisted Instrument Massage

Benefits of IAM

The therapist gains increased sensation and feedback (as well as easing some of the pressure they get on their hands) so they are able to react better to any client discomfort and provide improved results. Functionally, the tool has been ergonomically designed to fit the contours of the body at various points, with each edge of a tool useful for different areas. Used to treat different soft tissue structures in the body, applying the tool with pressure can help to release tension, aid the healing of tears and abrasions, and force muscles back into alignment. By stimulating blood flow, the body is persuaded to make new soft tissue and decrease the sensitivity of the area (as backed up by a number of research studies).
