Active Release Techniques® (ART) treatment is a hands-on, soft-tissue management system that allows us to diagnose and treat soft-tissue injuries. It is a highly successful approach to injuries of muscles, tendons, fascia, nerves and joints.
ART® treatment protocols are very specific soft-tissue adjustments performed to reintroduce normal movement and function to the soft tissue structures of the body as well as the spine and extremities.
Muscles, tendons, nerves, blood vessels and fascia may be compromised in many ways leading to restrictions and loss of normal function. These restrictions, in turn, lead to adhesions and the body's natural response which is the formation of scar tissue.
ART® treatment is directed at removing adhesions and is the most effective way to treat soft-tissue injuries.
ART® can help many physical discomforts and syndromes including:
• cumulative trauma disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome and other work-related injuries
• sports injuries of the shoulder, arm, wrist, elbow, hip, leg, knee, ankle and foot
• rotator cuff syndrome
• frozen shoulder
• post-surgical release of adhesions between muscles, nerves, and connective tissue
• hyper extension/flexion (whiplash) injury
• acute injuries
• chronic injuries
• sciatica
• pain, stress, headaches, neuropathy
The combined use of ART® and chiropractic care provides an optimal level of care by simultaneously addressing both soft-tissue and bone/structural problems.
