Chronic pain can have a tremendous impact on your everyday life. You deserve a solution that truly addresses the root cause of your discomfort. Active Release Technique® is a revolutionary approach to soft tissue care.
What is Active Release Technique®?
Active Release Technique® (ART) is an advanced treatment method that is gaining recognition as the gold standard in soft tissue care. Unlike traditional therapies that merely provide temporary relief, ART is designed to effectively target and resolve the underlying issues that contribute to pain and dysfunction.
How does Active Release Technique® work?
ART involves a hands-on, movement-based treatment approach that addresses tight muscles, scar tissue, and fascial restrictions in order to restore mobility and alleviate pain. Through a combination of precise tension and movement, a skilled practitioner can identify and target specific problem areas, resulting in improved range of motion, reduced pain, and enhanced performance.
Who can benefit from Active Release Technique®?
Sports Injuries: Whether you're an elite athlete or a weekend warrior, ART can help you overcome sports-related injuries and enhance your athletic performance.
Repetitive Strain Injuries:
If your job or daily activities involve repetitive movements that put excessive strain on your muscles, tendons, or nerves, ART can provide much-needed relief.
Postural Imbalances:
The modern lifestyle often leads to postural imbalances that can result in discomfort and pain. ART can help realign your body, improving posture and reducing associated pain.
Chronic Pain: From headaches, neck, and back pain to sciatica to carpal tunnel syndrome to plantar fasciitis, ART can offer effective relief for chronic pain conditions, helping you regain control and restore your quality of life.
