Active Release Technique
What is Active Release
Technique or A.R.T.?
A.R.T. is a treatment for soft tissue.
"Soft tissue" is muscles, tendons, ligaments,
fascia and nerves. Chronic and acute injuries to
the soft tissues may be the cause of a wide variety of
painful problems. There is a 90% success rate when
properly trained providers treat these conditions.
Soft tissue injuries can affect just about any area of
the body. Chronic low back pain, Carpal Tunnel
Syndrome, headaches, shin splints, rotator cuff
problems, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, can all be
resolved with A.R.T. These conditions have one
thing in common and that is they are often the result
from over-used muscles. Properly trained A.R.T.
providers are able to identify and correct abnormal
changes in the muscles that result from
overuse.
