Active Release Techniques

Active Release Technique is a soft-tissue management system based on the principle that muscles, nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue develop adhesions within and between them after cumulative injuries. These adhesions cause the motion of muscles or joints to be altered, resulting in a wide variety of symptoms including pain, weakness, reduced range of motion, numbness and tingling.

ART® is used to treat a variety of conditions including plantar fasciitis, headaches, sciatica, rotator cuff syndrome, and TMJ. ART® is also used to treat post-surgical scar tissue and peripheral nerve entrapments like carpal tunnel syndrome.

Many times patients can be successfully treated without surgical intervention.

Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a health care and pain relief technique based on proper spinal motion and nervous system function. Through normal wear and tear on the body or because of injury, spinal joints can become restricted and inflamed. This causes interference with, and irritation of, nerve roots exiting the spine, which causes pain. By providing specific manipulation to these spinal joints, chiropractors decrease these restrictions and inflammations, restoring nerve function and spinal motion.
