What to know
Graston uses shaped metal instruments during hands-on soft tissue treatment. The clinician moves an instrument over a selected area and adjusts the pressure to your response. This is one possible part of a care plan, alongside movement guidance or other appropriate therapies.
Before you decide
Before treatment, discuss previous surgery, sensitive skin, easy bruising and medicines that affect bleeding. Ask what sensations to expect and tell the clinician if the pressure feels too strong. A treatment should be reconsidered when symptoms change; discomfort is not a measure of success.
Plan a conversation
Call the Kendall office to discuss an evaluation. The team can explain scheduling and the information to bring, including any existing reports. Confirm fees and coverage directly before committing to care.
