Active Release Technique®
Scarborough Location
Keeping you properly aligned is our top priority. With the Active Release Technique (also known as ART), we do exactly that by going beyond your spinal bones and focus on soft tissue problems. Using this technique, we can easily identify the issue and work to resolve it quickly.
What to Expect
First, your North York chiropractor will evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons and ligaments. If scar tissue is present, we’ll be able to feel it because it will be preventing soft tissues from moving properly.
This can cause reduced range of motion, loss of strength and even pain. If nerve tissue is trapped, there may be tingling, numbness and weakness as well.
When problems are detected, a precise amount of pressure is applied. These manual maneuvers are normally applied at the site of your injury. Excellent results have been reported with the neuromuscular system:
- Muscles
- Tendons
- Ligaments
- Fascia
Patients have reported improvements relating to:
- Shin splints
- Shoulder pain
- Sciatica
- Plantar fasciitis
- Knee problems
- Tennis elbow
Most of these conditions share one important common denominator: overused muscles. We use this technique because it’s a proven, state-of-the-art soft tissue system that helps many muscle-related conditions resolve quickly and permanently.
