Active release techniques, or ART, are a therapy that breaks up scar tissue in the body, relieving pain and muscle stiffness. Pike Chiropractic Therapy Center in Huber Heights uses ART alongside other therapies to provide relief. If you're curious about ART, you can find answers to many common questions below.
ART are techniques that can target scar tissue, relieving tension in the body. It typically targets the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. It can break down scar tissue, boosting blood circulation and easing pain.
While it was developed for athletes, anyone with scar tissue adhesions can benefit from ART. Your chiropractor may recommend ART for pain management or to help your body heal from an injury. It's a safe and non-invasive way to ease pain, stiffness, and discomfort caused by scar tissue.
When you receive an ART treatment session, your chiropractor will target the part of your body that's causing your distress. Your chiropractor will ask you to move your body while they apply manual tension. In most cases, your chiropractor will recommend multiple treatment sessions.
While ART can be used alongside massage therapy, these two treatments are very different. Deep tissue massage puts heavy pressure on scar tissue adhesions, which can cause pain and soreness. ART applies gentle pressure while the muscles being treated are lengthened.
You will likely see an improvement in your symptoms after your first treatment session. People typically report a reduction of pain and mobility restrictions. Over time, you will likely see other improvements, like increased muscle strength.
Chiropractors use ART for pain management, injury recovery, and more. Our team at Pike Chiropractic Therapy Center recommends ACT to many patients. Make an appointment with one of our chiropractors if you would like to learn more by calling our team today at (937) 236-1705.
