Body Tempering is a form of IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) which is a manual therapy approch to musculoskeletal injuries using tools. IASTM tools can be used to address fascial restrictions as well as areas of the body that exhibit soft tissue fibrosis, chronic inflammation or degeneration, As a rehab tool, IASTM reduces pain and increases range of motion.
How does body tempering work?
Imagine foam rolling in reverse. Body tempering rollers are weighted (from 22 - 200+lbs.) The rollers are slowly rolled over an area of the body, or held in one particular spot to encourage muscle relaxation. Stretching can also be used in combination with the rollers. Following the treatment, the rollers are removed and noticeable changes to range of motion can be seen, and pain reduction will be reported.
