WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM MY TREATMENT?

A typical HawkGrips treatment session is divided into stages.

Your practitioner will start by warming up the tissue to prepare for treatment. Then they will apply HawkGrips emollient to your treatment area to lubricate the skin, and provide for a smooth glide of the instruments. This is where they’ll begin the HawkGrips treatment using the techniques that they have developed through their extensive HawkGrips educational training courses. The last step, they’ll typically finish-off with gentle motion and exercise, and may gently stretch the area to promote proper tissue movement.

To avoid overworking the tissue, HawkGrips Therapy is performed for a very short time period—usually less than 10 minutes per body part. Some tenderness or redness in the area after treatment is common, and generally fades quickly.

Most people enjoy the treatment, and begin to feel positive results, including increased range of movement and decreased pain typically after three to five treatments.

WHO CAN BE TREATED WITH HAWKGRIPS?

Anyone! HawkGrips are an excellent modality not only for treating injuries and chronic conditions, but also for preventive maintenance, recovery after a workout, and increasing range of motion in healthy patients.

They are safe for use with the general population, as well as many pediatric and geriatric patients. Your doctor or clinician can tell you if HawkGrips IASTM Therapy would be an appropriate choice for you as an individual.
