Pediatric Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (PIASTM)

Supporting Comfortable Movement and Functional Participation

What Is It?

Children's bodies are constantly growing and developing. Sometimes muscle tightness, tissue restrictions, discomfort, postural challenges, or movement limitations can affect their ability to participate comfortably in everyday activities.

PIASTM is a gentle therapeutic approach that uses specialized instruments to support soft tissue mobility, flexibility, movement quality, and overall physical function.

This approach may be incorporated into therapy when appropriate to help support movement efficiency and participation.
