Active Release Technique is a patented, non-invasive method for treating soft tissue disorders by identifying and eliminating scar tissue, tension, and adhesions. The therapist manipulates the affected area using the correct movements to target muscle tension and tense muscle tissue.
Overuse of soft tissues, such as muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and fascia, will result in the development of tough, dense scar tissue. As scar tissue accumulates in the body, muscles become increasingly rigid and frail. The reduction in range of motion causes muscular compensation, discomfort, numbness, tingling, and additional body dysfunctions.
The purpose of ART is to identify the root cause of the issue, release restricted nerves or blood vessels, and restore optimal texture and mobility to the affected tissue. Active Release Techniques (ART) is a multidisciplinary approach that employs massage-like movements rather than adjustments. Typically, a full course of treatment is recommended to patients.
Before enrolling in any ART-based treatment program, you should visit a certified practitioner so that you are fully informed of its benefits and hazards. Thanks to the effectiveness of ART, you will likely see effective improvements in your body with the correct preparation and instructions from your chiropractor.

ART can aid athletes in preventing the long-term effects of excessive physical exertion. In addition to enhancing the body’s general performance, it can help reduce inflammation and enhance blood circulation. ART is an efficient method for athletes to recuperate from their stressful activities and prevent future injuries caused by overuse or overextension.
ART can be used to alleviate pain, increase your range of motion and flexibility, restore balance to the soft tissues and muscles of the body, and enhance general health. As an athlete or someone seeking to enhance their physical ability, it may be worthwhile to investigate the potential benefits of this practice and rehabilitation.
Along with chiropractic care and massage therapy, a full course of ART treatments may be required to achieve the desired effects. Once dense scar tissue has been broken down and released through targeting scar tissue and trigger points, patients can anticipate the following benefits:
Enhanced Strength and Mobility
Reduced Muscle Stiffness
Sensation in the Fingers and Toes
Inflammation Relief
Reduced Pain during Exercise and Physical Activities
Active release techniques target the source of the problem to relieve the symptoms, and that is one of the primary reasons for the numerous benefits and favorable outcomes. In the case of neck and upper back discomfort, the primary issue is that the muscles around these sections have been injured and are mending themselves, so they do not work as well as they should.
