What Is the Graston Technique®?

The Graston Technique® is a specialized form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM). It uses precision stainless steel tools to gently break up adhesions in your muscles, fascia, and connective tissues — allowing your body to move and heal more freely.

At Back In Motion Physical Therapy & Performance in our Fort Myers and Cape Coral clinics, we integrate Graston into The Gray Method™ — our full-body, root-cause-focused approach — so you get both short-term relief and long-term results.

Who Is Graston For?

Graston isn’t just for elite athletes — it’s ideal for anyone struggling with:

  • Chronic stiffness or tightness

  • Old injuries that never fully healed

  • Scar tissue or fascial restriction after surgery

  • Soft tissue injuries like strains or sprains

  • Recurring pain that doesn’t improve with stretching alone

We often use it for weekend warriors, post-op patients, busy professionals, and anyone feeling stuck or restricted in their body.

How Does the Graston Technique® Work?

Graston works by using curved stainless steel instruments to detect and treat fascial restrictions and scar tissue. These tools allow your therapist to:

  • Identify exactly where adhesions and restrictions exist
  • Break up dysfunctional scar tissue and encourage healing
  • Improve blood flow and tissue remodeling
  • Decrease pain and improve mobility

It’s safe, effective, and highly targeted — especially when paired with the right mobility, strength, and movement retraining exercises.

Conditions We Use Graston To Treat:

At Back In Motion, we commonly use Graston Technique® for:

  • Tennis or golfer’s elbow

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Achilles tendonitis

  • Patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee)

  • IT band syndrome

Why Choose Us?

Pain can be confusing, frustrating, and discouraging — especially when you’ve already tried rest, exercises, or physical therapy and nothing seems to stick. At Back In Motion Physical Therapy & Performance, we don’t just help you feel better temporarily — we help you understand why the pain is happening and what it will take to fix it.

  • We Start With the Root Cause — Not a Diagnosis Code
    We don’t rely on vague labels or generic protocols. We identify why the pain started. We uncover what’s keeping it from resolving. We explain everything in clear, understandable terms.

  • We Use The Gray Method™ — Not Cookie-Cutter PT
    Your body isn’t standard — your care shouldn’t be either. We evaluate how your body moves, loads, and compensates. We identify which areas are doing too much — and which aren’t doing enough. We build care that’s precise, intentional, and specific to you.
  • We Treat the Whole Body — Not Just Where It Hurts
    Pain is rarely just a local problem. We assess how the feet, hips, and spine work together. We identify movement patterns that create overload or breakdown. We fix what’s driving the pain — not just where you feel it.
  • You’ll Always Know What’s Helping — and What’s Hurting
    No more guessing every time you move.We explain which movements are safe right now. We clarify what should be modified temporarily — and why.We help you move forward without fear.
  • We Focus on Fixing the Cause — Not Managing Symptoms
    Our goal isn’t to help you “live with it.” We address the underlying contributors to pain. We rebuild strength, confidence, and trust in your body.We avoid unnecessary medications, injections, or surgery whenever possible.
  • One-on-One Care — No Rushing, No Hand-Offs
    Your care is never rushed or passed off. You work one-on-one with a skilled professional. Every session has purpose, explanation, and intention.You always know why you’re doing what you’re doing.

  • Clarity Comes Before Commitment
    We begin with a Root Cause Assessment. You get answers before you make decisions. You understand your options clearly. There is no pressure to continue care.

  • Built for Active People Who Want More Than “Manage It”
    Most people come to us frustrated and uncertain.They leave feeling informed, confident, and in control again. Because when your care finally makes sense — everything changes

One-on-one • Precision-based • Clarity guaranteed
