Conditions That Can Be Helped with ART
“ART is a patented, advanced, movement-based massage system, which is extremely effective for accurately locating the cause of soft-tissue conditions and effectively resolving (or greatly improving) overuse and strain/sprain conditions.”
The definition of Active Release Techniques®(ART®) has changed and expanded over time as ART evolved. Essentially, ART is a non-invasive, hands-on, soft-tissue technique that simultaneously locates and breaks up scar tissue (which is the primary cause of pain, stiffness, weakness, numbness, and physical dysfunctions that are typically associated with soft-tissue injuries). ART combines motions performed by the patient with a hands-on technique that releases the adhesions between tissue layers. This process restores mobility and relative motion to the soft-tissue layers, increases circulatory function, and increases neurological function by breaking and releasing restrictive adhesions.
Active Release Techniques (ART) is classified as a multi-disciplinary procedure that is practiced by numerous practitioners from a wide range of medical professions and disciplines, including Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Massage Therapists, Kinesiologists, Occupational Therapists, and Sports Physicians.
