Because Stiff Isn’t Your Style. You’re Built to Move.
When your muscles feel tight, sore, or just won’t cooperate, soft tissue therapy helps restore movement, relieve pain, and speed up recovery — so you can get back to performing at your best. At Frenchtown Chiropractic in St. Charles, MO, Dr. Kevin combines evidence-based soft tissue techniques and precise adjustments with functional movement training to help you move freely again.
Break Up Tension with Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy uses gentle suction to lift and decompress soft tissue, promoting blood flow and faster recovery. Unlike the more traditional approach to cupping where you lie still with the cups on, we use passive and active movement at the same time. This facilitates the proper gliding and sliding of the tissue layers.
Cupping therapy is great for:
- Muscle tightness and tension
- Chronic pain or stiffness
- Post-workout recovery
- Improving circulation and mobility
- Reducing inflammation
- Breaking up muscle adhesions and trigger points
By combining cupping and movement, we alleviate soreness, enhance flexibility, and restore natural movement patterns. Many patients notice immediate relief and better mobility following treatment.

Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)
Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)
IASTM uses specially designed stainless steel tools to target tight or restricted muscles and fascia (the connective tissue surrounding your muscles). This technique increases blood flow, reduces local pain sensitivity, and improves soft tissue mobility — all without excessive pressure.
By improving tissue glide and range of motion, IASTM helps retrain healthy movement patterns, supporting strength and flexibility gains. It’s especially effective for:
- Chronic muscle tightness
- Tendon or ligament pain
- Post-workout stiffness
- Scar tissue restrictions
- Overuse injuries
After IASTM, we reinforce new mobility through corrective exercises, so you don’t just feel better — you move better.
