The Graston technique is a mobilisation method applied to soft tissue — muscle, tendon and fascia — with stainless-steel instruments. In the international literature it falls under IASTM (instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilisation). Fzt. Bilal Kara does not use it as a standalone treatment but as one stage aimed at reaching the source of a movement restriction; every session is completed with exercise.
Fzt. Bilal Kara provides one-to-one care for graston technique at the clinic in Bursa Nilüfer — in Fethiye Mahallesi, on Kelebek Sokak, at a central point of Nilüfer, opposite the Fethiye covered market.
It is a short trip by car or public transport from İhsaniye, Odunluk, Balat, Özlüce, Ataevler, 23 Nisan and the surrounding areas. Every session is one-to-one, assessment-based and tailored to you.
Chronic strain around the Achilles, patellar tendon and hip in athletes usually appears during the season. Stopping training entirely is often neither necessary nor possible; the real issue is making the tissue tolerate the load without removing it.
Fzt. Bilal Kara fits the Graston application into the training plan: which day it's done is set based on that week's loading. Strength work follows the application — what makes the tissue able to carry the load isn't the tool-based procedure, it's the graded loading that comes after it.

Fzt. Bilal Kara · Bursa Nilüfer. Share your complaint; we plan the process together after the assessment.
Yes; the application is fitted into the training plan, and which day it's done is set based on that week's loading.
No; the lasting result comes from the graded strength work that follows, the application alone isn't enough.
Tissue tolerance is assessed at regular intervals; load is increased gradually based on that measurement.
Hands-on techniques applied to joints and soft tissue, combined with exercise for a result that lasts.
For pain on the outer elbow that flares with gripping: a graded tendon-loading programme that rebuilds grip strength.
Shock wave therapy for chronic tendon and heel complaints, used as part of the programme.

Chiropractic and manual therapy are often confused. Both are done with the hands, but their approaches and frameworks differ.

The sharp heel pain on the first step in the morning is often assumed to be a heel spur. But the real name for this condition is plantar fasciitis, and the two aren't the same thing.

Flat feet aren't a disease in most people and cause no complaint. The real question is whether they're leading to a problem.
