Soft Tissue Therapy - Yes v No ✅️ ❌️

1. Erythema ✅️ v Tissue Trauma ❌️
Slight redness during/after treatment is a perfectly normal response and is a sign of treatment working. However the bottom image shows Tissue trauma, you should NEVER leave your treatment like this. This has been claimed to be IASTM but it is not. A practitioner doing this will not be covered by insurance & are following treatment guidelines.

2. Discomfort ✅️ v Pain ❌️
As most of my athletes/patients are aware discomfort or low level pain is expected during treatment but should never exceed a 6/10. More pain does not mean better results, it can actually have negative effects.

3. Qualified ✅️ v Non Qualified ❌️
Always check with your Therapist what their qualifications are and where they did their training. Most Therapists will welcome this and be happy to share their educational background. Always check for Full insurance & being a member of a regulated Association will give you peace of mind and should always be a requirement when a clinic is hiring a therapist.

4. Freedom ✅️ v Forced ❌️
Every therapist should be providing a treatment plan that will get you optimal results within the least amount of treatment time possible. Nobody should be forced into buying a block of treatments with a huge financial outlay before you've even started your treatment plan. I've seen this multiple times and it's a shame when wealth takes over health. Every single treatment prescribed should be back up by clinical reasoning not finances.

Let me know what you think!
