Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique or ART is a non-invasive treatment performed by skilled physical therapists at Physical Therapists NYC to quickly locate and resolve soft tissue disorders. For many people who have come to believe they are at a point where they have to live with pain, ART is the solution and provides relief of pain, a freeing of restricted body parts, and the potential to have a full recovery.
Active Release Technique (ART) Physical Therapy
ART physical therapy is a collection of techniques that focus on the soft tissue and relieve tension in these areas by removing fibrosis or adhesions which develop in the tissues when you overload them or repetitively do the same motions over and over.
Adhesions can present as weakness in the muscles, numbness, aching, tingling, burning sensations, and pain. When ART is employed in a physical therapy treatment plan, it has three main purposes.
- Restore motion to all soft tissues by freeing them from impingement and adhesions
- Release any nerves, vasculature, and lymphatic structures that have become entrapped
- Re-establish optimal function of soft tissue, including resilience and texture
Our skilled active release technique providers have a deep understanding of the negative changes that can happen within the soft tissues of the body. It’s not just the bones and joints that can be injured. By turning attention to often neglected soft tissues, we provide a more comprehensive treatment plan that has greater and more encompassing results. While it is best to seek physical therapy for these injuries when they occur or when you begin to notice them, delayed care can still be effective.
What to Expect from Active Release Technique (ART)
There’s a two-fold approach to ART that pairs active release technique massage with movement. This helps to identify, isolate, and target the affected areas. Then, it goes to work breaking up scar tissue which simultaneously promotes blood flow and the healing process. This technique works on:
- Muscles
- Ligaments
- Tendons
- Nerves
Any place in the body that has developed dense scar tissue, or adhesions, that bind tissues can cause pain, limited movement, reduced flexibility, and feelings of stiffness. If nerves happen to become entrapped within the adhesions, there may be associated pain, numbness, or tingling.
