One of our local TV stations did an interesting segment on the so-called Graston technique, which is used by physical therapists and chiropractors to help people recover from injury etc. It involves the use of somewhat medieval-looking tools to intensely massage the problem area and essentially break down scar tissue. It's apparently been used succesfully for rotator cuff injuries and carpa tunnel syndrome, in addition to plain old muscle soreness.
Here's a link to the segment, and there's also lots of interesting stuff if you just Google "Graston technique."

Anyone tried this? Sounds like one of those things that could be either a load of hooey or the real deal.
