ART is ideal for individuals dealing with various musculoskeletal conditions, including:

• Muscle and Tendon Injuries: ART helps treat muscle strains, tendonitis, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, and rotator cuff injuries.

• Soft Tissue Adhesions & Scar Tissue: ART breaks down scar tissue from past injuries, surgeries, or trauma, restoring normal tissue movement.

• Chronic Pain: For long-term, unresolved pain, ART addresses underlying soft tissue dysfunctions to alleviate discomfort.

• Nerve Compression & Entrapment: ART is effective for conditions like sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and thoracic outlet syndrome.

• Sports Injuries: Athletes benefit from ART for treating muscle strains, joint instability, and improving recovery times.

• Post-Surgical Rehabilitation: ART aids recovery after surgery by releasing scar tissue and restoring muscle function.

Whether recovering from an injury or seeking to prevent future issues, ART offers an effective, non-invasive solution for pain relief and rehabilitation.

ART offers a range of benefits, including:

• Pain Relief: By targeting adhesions and muscle tightness, ART addresses the root cause of pain, providing relief from conditions like tendonitis and nerve impingements.

• Improved Flexibility & Mobility: ART releases soft tissue restrictions, improving your range of motion and helping you move without discomfort.

• Accelerated Recovery: ART enhances blood flow to injured areas, promoting tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and speeding up recovery.

• Injury Prevention: Regular ART treatments enhance tissue function and flexibility, reducing the risk of future injuries.

• Restored Muscle Function: ART restores the normal function of muscles, tendons, and nerves, improving overall mobility and performance.

• Non-Surgical, Drug-Free Treatment: ART is a safe, natural alternative to surgery and pain medications for musculoskeletal issues.

• Enhanced Athletic Performance: Athletes use ART to release muscle tightness, improve flexibility, and boost performance by promoting optimal muscle function.

Active release results are enhanced when paired with other modalities such as flexion-distraction, chiropractic adjustments, IASTM, and/ or cupping.

ART targets the soft tissues affected by injury, adhesions, or muscle tightness. During a session, chiropractor will apply precise pressure to specific areas while guiding you through active movements, such as stretching or contracting the muscles. This combination of pressure and movement helps break down scar tissue, release muscle tension, and improve blood circulation to the area, promoting faster healing.

ART is customizable based on the severity of the injury, ensuring targeted relief and effective treatment.

Your chiropractic session will begin with a thorough consultation, where we’ll discuss your condition, medical history, and treatment goals. The practitioner will then assess your soft tissues to identify tightness, restrictions, or pain points.

Once targeted areas are identified, the practitioner will apply pressure while guiding you through specific movements. These movements allow the ART technique to target deeper tissue layers and break up adhesions.

Each session lasts approximately 5-10 minutes, depending on the condition being treated. While ART may involve some discomfort, it is generally well-tolerated, with most patients experiencing relief after one or a few sessions. Any soreness from ART typically resolves within 24-48 hours.
