What Does the Active Release Technique Entail?

The active release technique is an innovative therapy in chiropractic care. This distinct treatment alleviates tension in soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Unlike traditional methods, ART offers specific, hands-on relief. It targets issues caused by overuse, such as repetitive strain injuries, by breaking down scar tissue and adhesions. ART is more than just a treatment; it's a pathway toward restoring your body's natural balance and function.
