DAVID G / SENIOR MARKET & TRAINING CONSULTANT
David is the original inventor of a patented technique and tools that carry his last name. He originally developed instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization to assist in his own recovery from a water skiing injury that resulted in a dislocation of his right knee.
After recovering from his injury, David began working with numerous NFL players to treat injuries and increase their performance and went on to create a new method and instruments called SASTM – Sound Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. SASTM is a method and design of instruments to assist in the location of soft tissue adhesions. This method detects and treats fascial restrictions, encourages rapid localization and effectively treats areas exhibiting soft tissue fibrosis, chronic inflammation, or degeneration.
Today David continues his work in helping individuals to improve their range of motion, flexibility, recovery time and performance through partnering with medical doctors, chiropractors, therapists and professional athletes and trainers from NFL, NBA, MLB and universities around the world.”
