ART is a hands-on soft tissue technique

The technique is effective in treating dysfunctional tissues including muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves

Injuries can be both acute and chronic in nature.  Both of these result in your healthy soft tissues being replaced with thick and fibrous, scar tissues. A.R.T. is used to locate those affected area to treat the scar tissue and adhesions to establishe proper movement and function.

 

Soft Tissue Adhesions

Acute injuries, repetitive injuries, micro trauma, and hypoxia (not getting enough oxygen) can all result in soft tissue scarring and adhesions.

This scar tissue binds up and restrictios soft tissues that need to move freely. As scar tissue builds up, muscles become shorter and weaker, tension on tendons causes tendonitis, and nerves can become trapped. This can cause reduced range of motion, loss of strength, and pain.

How Does It Work?

Diagnoses

The diagnostic process involves utilizing the hands to evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves

Treatment

Abnormal tissues are treated by combining precisely directed tension with very specific patient movements.

Relief

Most non-complicated soft tissue conditions, including strains, sprains and overuse injuries, are resolved in just a few sessions.

What Conditions Can Be Treated With ART?

Anyone suffering from pain and other symptoms caused by soft tissue injuries resulting from sports, overuse, or trauma may benefit from ART.

What Our Patients Say

I have had chronic shoulder pain for almost a year and he has been able to greatly increase my range of motion and reduce my pain using Active Release Technique as well as some adjustments. I highly recommend this clinic!
