Jeffrey Poplarski Completes 12-Hour Training Course

In Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization

Dr. Jeffrey Poplarski of Amityville, New York recently completed Graston Technique^® Module 1 Basic Training and is now treating patients with GT at his practice in Amityville. 

The Technique uses specially designed stainless steel instruments to detect and treat areas exhibiting scar tissue or chronic inflammation.

Clinicians use the instruments with varying shapes to comb over and "catch" on fibrotic tissue, which immediately identifies areas of restriction. Once the tissue has been identified, the instruments break up scar tissue so the body can absorb it.

The Technique reduces pain and increases range of motion. It also:

• Improves diagnostic treatment
• Increases patient satisfaction by achieving notably better outcomes
• Speeds rehabilitation and recovery
• Reduces the need for anti-inflammatory medication
• Allows the patient to continue to engage in everyday activities.

The instruments are not meant to replace a clinician's hands, but to complement them. M1–Basic Training offers participants a comprehensive overview of the GT treatment approach with extensive laboratory practice.

More than 7,500 leading health care providers, more than 30 colleges and universities, major corporations and more than 125 professional/amateur sports organizations in the U.S. and around the world currently use Graston Technique^®.  Trainers and clinicians at these organizations are treating elite athletes, patients and employees every day to get them injury free to function at the highest level.

The Technique provides patients with a new option in the treatment of musculoskeletal complaints. For further information contact Dr. Jeff Poplarski at 631-598-7034.
