Active Release Techniques (ART) are soft tissue methods that focuses on relieving tissue tension via the removal of fibrosis/adhesions. Tissue tension can develop in tissues as a result of overload and repetitive use. These conditions can lead to muscular weakness, numbness, aching, tingling and burning sensations.
Who may use it?
Active Release Technique therapy is used in treating lower back pain, shoulder strain, frozen shoulders, and tension headaches. ART therapy can also treat more complex problems such as shin splints, tennis elbow Bursitis, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome and more.
What are the benefits of Active Release Techniques?
- Relieve tight muscles: ART therapy sessions are a great way to relieve tight muscles and nerve trigger points. This not only begins the healing process, but will also improve your quality of life.
- Natural Treatment: The best thing about ART therapy is that it is a natural treatment, which works like deep tissue massage. Patients can feel relief from stress on joints without having to use any kind of medication.
- Qualified practitioners: ART therapy compounds some very specific hand-and-finger-massage movements. Our highly qualified practitioners tailor to your condition and create personalized solution plans to relieve tissue tension.
