Deep Soft Tissue Massage with Active Release Techniques |
   |
Active Release Techniques ® is a manual therapy that deals with neuromuscular skeletal soft tissue (muscles, tendons, fascia, ligaments and nerves). Tightness in the soft tissue and adhesions between the layers of deeper tissue – which form with overuse, repetitive movement or scar tissue - change the mechanics of the body. This often causes problems like poor circulation, degeneration, nerve entrapments, soreness in joints and muscles, head aches etc.
The Active Release Techniques ® provider checks your symptom patterns and works by feeling manually where soft tissue has changed and then using motion and manual tension to fix it.
About ART-treatments
Treatments with Active Release Techniques ® can feel uncomfortable at times as the adhesions losen. Sometimes symptoms are duplicated during the treatment. This is only temporary though and the feeling subsides almost immediately after the treatment. There are no side effects other than a sense of fatigue in cases where longer treatments are needed.
