Manual Therapy in Austin, Texas
Deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release & Graston Technique
What is the Graston Technique?
A tight knot in your shoulder that won't release no matter how much you stretch. Chronic pain that's been brushed off as "just stress." An old injury that never quite healed right. Manual therapy targets the muscle and connective tissue directly, often resolving pain that's gone undiagnosed or untreated for years.
What Patients Come For
Muscle knots and trigger points that won't release
Chronic pain from an old or unresolved injury
Tightness and restriction limiting your range of motion
Muscle strain from work, sports, or daily overuse
Pain that hasn't responded to rest or stretching alone
Often the Missing Piece
Evidence-based research shows over 80% of workplace injuries involve a muscle strain or sprain yet this kind of pain is frequently under-treated or dismissed entirely. Dr. Alvarado has helped many patients find significant relief from chronic pain rooted in trigger points and muscle restriction that had gone undiagnosed for years.
Treating the source, not just the symptom
Rather than strengthening an injured muscle before addressing the underlying restriction, Dr. Alvarado corrects the site of injury first using deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, or Graston Technique. Then he guides you through exercises to prevent it from coming back.
