Course description
This course will teach participants about our Pediatric IASTM and its application on Children.
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization is a new range of tool which enables clinicians to efficiently locate and treat individuals diagnosed with soft tissue dysfunction/Contractures
Pediatric IASTM is performed with ergonomically designed instruments that detect and treat fascial restrictions, encourage rapid localization and effectively treat areas exhibiting soft tissue fibrosis, chronic inflammation, or degeneration and helps in increasing ROM.
With any Manual therapy treatment, supplementation with exercises and additional modalities e.g. joint mobilization designed to correct biomechanical deficiencies by addressing musculoskeletal strength and muscle imbalances throughout the entire kinetic chain should be used in conjunction with IASTM. If you do any type of soft tissue work in your practice or interested in adding a new tool to it, then this IASTM clinic is for you.

To help clinicians/participants learn how to assess a child to get the most out of your treatment by using advance Pediatric IASTM methods to correct MS dysfunction/contracture reduction.
The Tools
The tools have been intentionally designed for comfort and practicality for practitioners as well as patients. Ergonomically friendly angles have been created to allow movement around different parts of the body, so that you don't have to carry too many tools with you. We have added a few tools for preferences, suitability of practices and pricing for those who want to start but aren't too sure which will work best for them just yet. Made out of surgical grade steel, our tools are easy to clean and handle, and best of all, they are hypoallergenic for use on all skin types. Medical grade surgical steel is used to allow the best feedback for both the practitioner and client.
