What is ART?

Active release technique is a soft tissue method that focuses on relieving tissue tension via the removal of fibrosis/adhesions which can develop in tissues as a result of overload due to repetitive use. These disorders may lead to muscular weakness, numbness, aching, tinging and burning sensations

The ART active release technique was developed and patented by Dr. P. Michael Leahy, DC, CCSP, a Doctor of Chiropractic medicine. Dr. Leahy noticed that the symptoms of patients were related to changes in their soft tissues, so he developed this technique which revolved completely around the patient's symptoms. He documented his first work in 1985 under the title of Active Myofascial Release, but later patented it under the name Active Release Techniques. There are numerous reasons to consider this form of chiropractic therapy. Find a certified ART chiropractor in Montclair, NJ, by contacting Garden State Spinal today.
