EMMT

EMMT (instrument-assisted myofascial mobilization therapy) is a soft-tissue mobilization protocol in which we use tools known as fascia blades to perform soft-tissue mobilizations. The treatment is not painful, though it may be accompanied by a feeling of discomfort. However, significant improvement is usually noticeable already after the first session.

Reduced elasticity of the connective tissue is both a cause and a consequence of many musculoskeletal problems. When there is a problem, adhesions form in the connective tissue, which reduce the gliding of muscles against one another during movement, making movement more difficult, restricted and painful. The goal of the therapy is to release these connective-tissue adhesions and restore the elasticity of the myofascia, thereby reducing and eliminating pain and restricted movement.

A few examples of musculoskeletal problems that can be effectively treated include: tunnel syndromes, tennis and golfer's elbow, shoulder injuries and frozen shoulder syndrome, hip and knee pain, ITB syndrome, heel spur and plantar fascia inflammation, and others.
