Active Release Techniques

ART® is an advanced system of analysis and treatment for soft tissue disorders that include Repetitive Strain/Stress, Cumulative Trauma and

most Sports Injuries.   ART® is a manual technique which enables credentialed providers to work directly with the anatomical structures responsible for symptoms of soft tissue disorders. These include frozen shoulder, rotator cuff syndrome, golfer's elbow, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome , tendonitis, epicondylitis, mechanical low back pain, plantar fasciitis, and most sports injuries.

How does ART® work?
ART® works by releasing the level of tightness or scar tissue formation that has formed as a result of injury, overuse or even postural imbalances. The tissues are worked to fix injuries within muscles, tendons, ligaments, and between nerves to allow for improved tissue texture, tension, movement & function.

What does ART® feel like?
It is probably easier to tell you what ART® does not feel like, including massage, stretching or chiropractic. Although
it is a manual therapy, ART® is unique in its systematic approach to within client and tissue tolerance because the
client can control the active movement during treatment.  Most people describe it as a 'good hurt'.

Why is ART® used ?
ART® is used to allow for free and unimpeded movement of muscles, tendons, nerves and joints, to allow for a
dramatic change in comfort, flexibility and strength. It is the only soft-tissue treatment that is patented and actually frees adhesions or scar tissue, which restricts motion and causes pain.  For elite athletes, ART® Performance Care is used to "dial in" to the athletes for injury  prevention and to improve their form and function.
