Ergon technique is an innovative instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) therapeutic approach for the treatment of neuromusculoskeletal pathologies, combining static and dynamic manipulation of fascia and soft tissues with special clinical tools.
Ergon technique for soft tissues is applied at specific points of tissue restriction and fascial adhesion through the fascial meridian. Once they are released, function is improved in a few treatments. The purpose of applying the Ergon technique is to reveal adhesion sites, increase local perfusion, and reduce muscle tension and pain.
When it comes to tissue condition assessment, there is a significant advantage in using these instruments, compared to using only the hands.
