Active Release Techniques: The Secret Ingredient to Chiropractic Care

At Lincoln Chiropractic, we’re proud to be the only authorized professional in the area to provide Active Release Techniques (ART) to our patients, a customized form of chiropractic therapy that has transformed the way we approach pain and discomfort. With over 30 years of experience in chiropractic care, I’ve seen firsthand how ART can provide lasting relief for patients suffering from chronic pain, injuries, and tension.

What Are Active Release Techniques

Active Release Techniques are highly effective, hands-on therapy tactics designed to treat soft tissue injuries. It targets muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves—areas often affected by repetitive strain, trauma, or something as simple as overusing a muscle. ART combines manual manipulation with movement to relieve tense tissues and improve range of motion.

Benefits of ART

1. Pain Relief: One of the most significant benefits of ART is its ability to reduce or eliminate pain. By targeting the source of the pain, ART helps to release tension and provide long-lasting relief.
2. Improved Range of Motion: Based on an initial consultation, we are able to assert ART therapy to improve patient flexibility and mobility. By loosening up tight muscles and fascia, ART helps restore regular movement patterns, making it easier to perform everyday tasks or return to sports and physical activities. One of our regular clients reports on strains in his achilles heel and legs from playing pickleball and other sports that require extensive use of their legs. We are able to target specific ART exercises to treat the areas in his leg that feel pain and get him back on the court!
3. Faster Recovery from Injuries: ART accelerates healing by improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, and breaks down injured tissue that could otherwise hinder the healing process.
4. Preventative Care: ART isn’t just for those dealing with injury or pain. Regular treatments can help maintain muscle health and prevent future injuries.
