"The Graston Technique^® Instruments allow a deeper, more sensitive palpation and treatment of fibrotic restricted tissue."

—Warren I. Hammer, MS, DC, DABCO

Six stainless steel instruments form the cornerstone of Graston Technique^®

The curvilinear edge of the patented Graston Technique^® Instruments combines with their concave/convex shapes to mold the instruments to various contours of the body. This design allows for ease of treatment, minimal stress to the clinician's hands and maximum tissue penetration.

The Graston Technique^® Instruments, much like a tuning fork, resonate in the clinician's hands allowing the clinician to isolate adhesions and restrictions, and treat them very precisely. Since the metal surface of the instruments does not compress as do the fat pads of the finger, deeper restrictions can be accessed and treated. When explaining the properties of the instruments, we often use the analogy of a stethoscope. Just as a stethoscope amplifies what the human ear can hear, so do the instruments increase significantly what the human hands can feel.
