Instruments

In 2000 Carpel Therapy becomes aware, due to the internet, of a method known as Gua Sha which had a unique flat edge on one of the instruments. CTI also developed their Aerospace Ceramic Polymer with resonating
ability. This allows these instruments with their Ergonomic design to resonate. These instruments allow for easy
handling and minimal amount of pressure
needed during treatment which results in
minimal discomfort to patient.
SASTM instruments are designed on a
square surface instead of a convex/concave tool fitting body parts. No patents are required because
they are based off of the Chinese Gua Sha
instruments with flat edges which have been in the market
for several hundred years.
|
Metal tools
have resonating ability due to
density of material this is minimized. Instruments are hard
to hold and cold to patient. More pressure
needed during treatment due to design. |
Performance
Dynamics are Resin based and are convex\concave with sharp treatment edges. |
