Active Release Techniques
TREATMENT
overview
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a specialized, hands-on therapy that targets soft tissue restrictions caused by overuse, injury, or repetitive strain. These restrictions can lead to muscle tightness, pain, decreased range of motion, and the formation of scar tissue. ART uses specific movements and tension applied by the practitioner to break down adhesions and restore normal muscle and tissue function.
At Gilbertson Chiropractic, ART is commonly used to treat conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, shoulder impingements, lower back pain, and sports injuries. Whether you’re an athlete or simply experiencing daily muscle tension, ART can help you move more freely and without pain.
