S.A.S.T.M. (Sound Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization)
 A stand-alone technique as well as the heart of our F.I.T.T. program, the Sound Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization Technique, or SASTM for short, is a type of sports massage therapy that addresses acute as well as chronic muscle problems.
The technique uses specially designed tools rubbed into the skin to break up adhesions (scar tissue) in your muscles - comparative to ironing out a wrinkled tablecloth. It relieves pain as well as increases athletic performance.
This treatment differs from other pain relief therapies like traditional massage because it hits knots form the side instead of above, and with stronger force. The increased inflammation forces the body to begin healing the injury and thus reducing the pain.
Back pain and other muscle strains, ligaments and tendon problems, as well as shoulder, knee and ankle pain are just a few of the conditions that can benefit from this treatment.
Specific treatable conditions include:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Frozen shoulder
Plantar Fasciitis
Rotator Cuff Tendinitis
Patellar TendinitisAnkle strains and sprains
