IASTM: Thoracolumbar Fascia
This course describes instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) of the thoracolumbar fascia (TLF), with a focus on treatment of the posterior superficial layer of the TLF (summary of TLF anatomy below). Additionally, modifications of IASTM techniques are discussed, including specific techniques for addressing trigger points, different treatment positions used to increase tissue tension, and pin-and-stretch techniques with IASTM tools (a.k.a. active or dynamic release).
