Active Release Technique is a soft tissue technique that is aimed at breaking up scar tissue in muscle and helping injured soft tissues heal better. This is done by a combination of pressure on a muscle in a specific direction and incorporating a specific movement pattern.
Active Release Technique requires an assessment and treatment of the involved soft tissues at each visit. This assessment allows us to determine the change in the muscle between treatments. We are capable of evaluating the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. To help these different tissues there are over 500 protocols that are aimed at treating the muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, and nerves.
This always leads to the question what type of conditions can A.R.T. or Active Release Technique help with? The answer is any problem involving muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and fascia. The most common conditions we see in the clinic are headaches, sports injuries, back pain, achilles tendon, nerve entrapment such as carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, sciatica, plantar fascitits, shoulder pain, knee pain, elbow pain, and many other conditions.
If you think you have a condition that is bothering you give our clinic a call today.
