I believe the ideal solution for effective spinal care should integrate a variety of treatment protocols, essentially providing a customized plan of action for each person.

Why customized? Every individual possesses a unique genetic makeup, slightly different anatomical features, a varied life history, distinctive and unique physical restrictions throughout the body, and exposure to varied and unique psycho-social factors. Thus, it is only logical to assume that each of these individuals would respond differently to a single or uniform treatment plan.

A customized treatment plan for the spine (head, neck, and back) should take into account these variables, and also address the unique nature of each patient’s requirements. I strongly believe that, within a multi-disciplinary armada of treatment protocols, Active Release Techniques, in combination with a carefully selected exercise plan, should be the first choice of treatment for the treatment and prevention of mechanical spinal conditions. ART is equally effective at preventing such conditions from occurring as it is in resolving these conditions once they have occurred.

Today, ART is being used, on-site, at over 150 corporations to treat existing soft-tissue conditions and to prevent the future occurrence of job-related injuries. In these corporations, within one year, ART has reduced Workers’ Compensations claims by as much as 80% to 90%. This is an incredible return on both health and expenditure, resulting in happier, healthier employees with reduced downtime caused by illnesses and pain.
