Active Release Techniques (ART)

Active Release Techniques is a manual hands-on method that focuses on muscular and soft tissue problems. ART is based on the fact that muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue can develop adhesions due to both acute and repeated injuries and chronic irritations. These adhesions can adversely affect the muscular range of motion, joint motion, muscle function and compress nerves.

Practitioners work with various soft tissues to release the adhesion in an effort to fully restore optimal function. This technique can be widely applied; from athletic injuries to injuries suffered in offices and factories.
