Active Release Technique, also referred to as ART, is a patented state-of-the-art soft tissue therapy devised to precisely locate and alleviate muscle, tendon, ligament, fascia, nerve, and soft-tissue concerns. This non-invasive treatment has been around since 1984, when it was first used by Dr. P. Michael Leahy to treat athletes for various musculoskeletal conditions. Conditions Resolved with ART As certified ART providers we are qualified to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions and injuries including: HeadachesChronic Neck Pain Low Back PainSciatic SymptomsShoulder Pain BursitisTennis ElbowCarpal Tunnel Plantar FasciitisShin Splints What to Expect During an ART Treatment During an ART session the doctor will palpate to find irregularities in tissue texture, tension, and movement. Once the root cause is identified they will have the patient actively move, while applying precise pressure to the affected area. This allows the doctor to feel the structure during movement and breaks up the damaged tissue, allowing for restored mobility and re-establishing proper blood flow to the area for healing. Schedule with one of our Certified Doctors Dr. Dennis J. King and Dr. Richard Kingsbury are one of the few providers in the area credentialed in ART.
