Pinnacle is a wonderful place—great, caring staff and very clean, bright facility! I have loved working with Blaise and Kasey. They are so qualified—with all the necessary credentials! They have definitely put me on the road to recovery!

I highly enjoyed coming to Pinnacle. The therapy helped & I greatly benefited from it. The staff was always courteous & you can tell the therapist wanted to see you improve. I had numerous mishappenings in life that caused a sudden stop in therapy but I would definitely recommend Pinnacle & return again.

What to Expect from IASTM in Columbia

You may be curious about the role of tools in physical therapy. While traditional therapies rely on hand techniques, tools bring added benefits, such as effectively breaking down scar tissue and easing connective tissue restrictions. They also allow therapists to identify and address specific problem areas precisely.

IASTM-certified therapists tailor the pressure and speed of their techniques to your individual needs, focusing on stimulating or relaxing specific muscles.

IASTM intentionally triggers a mild inflammatory response in the targeted muscles, ligaments, or tendons. This controlled inflammation is essential for healing, accelerating recovery, and assisting your return to normal activities.

Moreover, IASTM is exceptionally effective in breaking down adhesions and scars resulting from surgeries, repetitive injuries, or lack of movement, facilitating functional rehabilitation.

IASTM Demonstrated Benefits For:

  • Pain related to movement
