Active Release Techniques (ART)

Service Description

WHAT IS ART? Active Release Techniques (ART) is a patented soft tissue treatment that requires intensive training and dedication by the health care professional providing the treatment. Only a handful of practitioners in the world are certified in this procedure. For a list of providers trained in ART visit www.activerelease.com. ART is designed to locate and break down scar tissue and adhesions which cause pain, numbness, weakness, stiffness and biomechanical dysfunction associated with repetitive strain injuries (RSI). WHAT ARE RSI’s? A repetitive strain injury is a soft-tissue injury in which muscles, nerves, ligaments, fascia, or tendons become inflamed as a result of cumulative trauma and overuse. RSI’s can occur at work or at play, whenever repetitive actions are performed. ART IS VERY SPECIFIC! ART is used both for treatment of RSI injuries, as well as for the improvement of athletic performance. Active Release Technique is the key to alleviating the suffering caused by overuse injuries, as it addresses: the true CAUSE of the problem, how to effectively TREAT the trauma, and how to STOP the treatment from returning. In Summery: ART is able to resolve the true cause of many musculoskeletal problems by providing more than just a symptomatic solution. ABOUT ART IRONMAN PERFORMANCE CARE: ART can provide patients with a means to enhance their sports performance by identifying and releasing restrictions that reduce their performance in that activity.

I will then use specific ART protocol for treatment of your dysfunction along with specific stretches and state-of-the-art electric muscle stimulation for muscular rehabilitation.
