Overused muscles, repetitive motion, and direct traumatic impacts lead to the formation of tough, dense scar tissue (adhesions). This scar tissue binds tissues that need to move freely, shortening muscles, stressing tendons, and entrapping peripheral nerves.
Active Release Technique (ART) is widely recognized as the gold standard in soft tissue management for Olympic athletes, professional sports teams, and hard-working Calgarians alike.
This is a comprehensive care pathway. Specific tests or procedures depend on your clinical needs.
Locating exact scar tissue adhesions within muscle bellies and nerve pathways.
Applying manual tension while the patient actively moves the affected muscle through its range.
Immediate improvement in tissue glide, flexibility, and power output.
A simple, structured pathway—from consult to a clear plan.
Evaluating the texture, tightness, and movement of muscles, fascia, and ligaments.
Applying precise directional contact while actively lengthening the muscle to break scar tissue.
Freeing trapped nerves to eliminate tingling, numbness, and burning sensations.
Teaching movement patterns to prevent repetitive adhesion accumulation.
Common questions about active release technique (art) consultations and follow-ups.
