Fascial Abrasion Technique
FAT-Tool
What is the Fascial Abrasion Technique?
The Fascial Abrasion Technique involves the use of a specialized tool, known as the F.A.T. Tool, to break down scar tissue and address fascial restrictions. This technique is effective in treating painful conditions resulting from injuries or overuse disorders, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, cervical and lumbar strain, tendinosis (including achilles and rotator cuff), patella-femoral knee pain, as well as tennis and golfer's elbow.
What is involved?
The F.A.T. Tool is designed to identify and treat areas of fascial restriction. Its contoured shape enables clinicians to effectively scan the body, detecting the presence of fascial restrictions. The tool is then utilized to apply precise pressure, helping to alleviate fascial tension and restore function.
How does it work and why is it effective?
Fascial abrasion creates controlled micro trauma that stimulates specialized nerve endings in the skin and fascia, promoting the normalization of fascial tone. The F.A.T. Tool can also address scar tissue that may be causing pain or restricting movement. Additionally, the tool stimulates a local inflammatory response that aids in the rebuilding of injured soft tissue.
