What
is it?
Active
Release
Technique
(A.R.T.®)
is a patented,
state-of-the-art
soft tissue
system
that diagnoses
and permanently
treats
soft tissue
injuries.
These
injuries
can be
a result
of repetitive
stress
or trauma
such as
whiplash
or from
over-use
of the
same muscle
group
doing
the same
activities.
It is
a non-invasive
healing
procedure
that locates
and breaks
down scar
tissue
and adhesions
that cause
soft-tissue
injuries.
How
is it
performed?
It
is a
method
of healing
injuries
by locating
scar
tissue,
then
applying
tension
to the
scar
tissue
while
lengthening
muscles,
tendons
and
ligaments.
ART
returns
tissue
to its
correct
tension,
texture,
movement
and
function
thus
eliminating
symptoms.
These
treatment
protocols
- over
500
specific
moves
- are
unique
to ART.
They
allow
providers
to identify
and
correct
the
specific
problems
that
are
affecting
each
individual
patient.
ART
is not
a cookie-cutter
approach
–
treatment
and
specific
moves
incorporated
depend
on the
evaluation
results
of the
patient.
Each
session
takes
between
10 to
30 minutes
and
comfort
level
varies
by each
individual.
At times
ART
can
be described
as mildly
uncomfortable
but
the
therapeutic
benefits
easily
outweigh
any
tenderness
felt
during
a treatment.
Who
should
consider
ART?
ART
is a
highly
successful
treatment
not
only
for
athletes,
but
to anyone
who
leads
an active
life,
sits
at a
computer
all
day,
or enjoys
gardening.
Many
daily
activities
cause
repetitive
stress
and
the
formation
of scar
tissue,
which
hinders
the
movement
and
function
of soft
tissues
(muscles,
ligaments,
tendons
and
nerves).
This
creates
symptoms
of pain,
stiffness,
decreased
range
of motion,
numbness
and
weakness.
If
you
suffer
from
any
of the
following
ailments,
ART
may
be the
solution
for
you.
