Austin Winegeart
Muscle Mechanic - Stretch Therapist

If you haven’t had an assisted stretch/trigger point therapy before, prepare for a great time! Austin will greet you and discuss your current flexibility, any prior injuries, and what goals you would like to achieve, walk you through your session, and develop a treatment plan moving forward. Your session will be thorough and, at times, can be intense, but Austin will communicate with you throughout your therapy session to gauge your comfort level. It’s best to wear clothes you feel comfortable moving in. People wear workout clothes, gym shorts, yoga pants, T-shirts, etc. Jeans and slacks restrict mobility, so he suggests not wearing those materials. Austin looks forward to working with you!

Manual Therapy
A manual therapy session is a hands-on approach to treatment that aims to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and restore optimal function. Our skilled practitioners utilize various techniques, such as joint mobilization, soft tissue manipulation, and stretching, to address musculoskeletal issues and promote healing. By applying specific pressures and movements, manual therapy helps release muscle tension, reduce joint restrictions, and improve the overall range of motion. It can also enhance circulation, promote relaxation, and support the body's natural healing mechanisms. Austin's tailored manual therapy sessions address your individual needs, providing personalized care to restore balance, alleviate discomfort, and optimize overall well-being.

Muscle Scraping
Muscle scraping, also known as instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM), is a technique used to address soft tissue restrictions and promote healing. During a muscle scraping session, specialized tools are applied to the skin to target areas of tightness, scar tissue, or adhesions. These tools, often made of stainless steel, glide along the skin, applying controlled pressure to mobilize the soft tissues. Muscle scraping helps break up scar tissue, release fascial restrictions, and improve blood flow to the affected area. This technique can help reduce pain, improve flexibility, and enhance overall mobility. Austin, our skilled practitioners utilize muscle scraping as part of our muscle mechanics services to customize treatments to your specific needs, helping you achieve optimal recovery, performance, and well-being.

Cupping
Cupping is a therapeutic technique that involves placing specially designed cups on the skin to create suction, promoting healing, alleviating pain, and improving overall well-being. Through increased blood flow, cupping helps to relax muscles, release tension, and reduce inflammation. It can also stimulate the lymphatic system, supporting detoxification and promoting a sense of rejuvenation. Cupping is commonly used to address musculoskeletal issues, such as muscle tightness, knots, and sports-related injuries. Additionally, it can aid in promoting relaxation, relieving respiratory conditions, and enhancing recovery. At [Your Company Name], our skilled practitioners integrate cupping into our comprehensive muscle mechanics services to tailor treatments to your unique needs, helping restore balance, alleviate discomfort, and optimize your overall well-being.

Kinesio Taping
Kinesio taping is a therapeutic technique that utilizes specialized elastic tapes to provide support, stability, and pain relief to muscles and joints. By applying the tape in specific patterns, Kinesio taping can enhance proprioception, improve circulation, and facilitate proper muscle function. The tape's elasticity allows for a full range of motion while providing gentle support to injured or strained areas. Kinesio taping is commonly used to alleviate pain, reduce swelling, and recover injuries. It can also enhance athletic performance, improve posture, and aid muscle re-education. Austin, our expert practitioners utilize Kinesio taping as part of our muscle mechanics services to customize treatments and help you achieve optimal support, recovery, and performance.
