What Is ASTYM?
ASTYM (A-Stim), short for Augmented Soft Tissue Mobilization, is a revolutionary therapy technique that targets underlying causes of soft tissue problems by stimulating the body's natural healing processes. At Tri Physical Therapy in Phoenix, AZ, our skilled team utilizes ASTYM to effectively treat patients suffering from a variety of conditions, such as tendinitis, scar tissue, and other chronic injuries affecting soft tissues. By using specialized instruments to gently massage and scrape the skin over the affected area, ASTYM promotes the regeneration and remodeling of healthy soft tissues. This noninvasive approach not only alleviates pain and improves mobility but also enhances overall performance and function. Our team is committed to incorporating ASTYM into personalized treatment plans, ensuring patients in Biltmore, Arcadia, Phoenix, and the surrounding areas receive the most effective care tailored to their specific needs and recovery goals.
What Can I Expect with ASTYM?
During your ASTYM treatment at Tri Physical Therapy, specialized tools will be gently worked across your skin, focusing on areas that show soft tissue dysfunction. This technique stimulates your tissues beneath the skin, breaking down unwanted scar tissue and fostering the growth of healthy soft tissues. During the treatment, you might feel sensations ranging from mild discomfort to a soothing, massage-like experience, depending on the specific area being treated and the severity of your condition. Typically, each session will last between 20 – 30 minutes and forms a key part of your comprehensive physical therapy plan, which may also include targeted exercises, Pilates, and other therapeutic modalities to support your recovery process. After your treatment, it's common to observe immediate enhancements in your movement and decreased pain levels with the most noticeable improvements occurring after multiple sessions.

Tri Physical Therapy Reviews
The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Making the first appointment was super easy by using their online chat system. The medical massages definitely helped increase my range of motion and reduce my pain. The massage therapist used scrapping and cupping, which were extremely beneficial. Also, each massage therapist listened to my concerns, provided necessary treatment, insight into what could be causing my pain, and shared at home remedies.
