Active Release Technique in Calgary

ART sessions are usually most effective when paired with chiropractic manipulation in Calgary. Scar tissue is often present with repetitive injuries that prevent the soft tissue from moving correctly and healing properly. This can cause reduced range of motion and/or pain. If a nerve becomes involved, there may also be numbness, tingling, and/or weakness.
Understanding Active Release Technique in Calgary
ART is a soft tissue technique that uses movement to help the healing process of muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. ART is a useful technique used at Chiropractic Center for Health in Calgary to treat the following conditions:
- Headaches
- Back pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Shin splints
- Shoulder pain
- Sciatica
- Plantar fasciitis
- Knee problems
- Tennis elbow
- And more!

The Treatment
When a problem is found, a specific protocol is chosen. A precise amount of pressure is applied aiding in the breakdown of the scar tissue. Most of these conditions occur due to one important commonality: over-usage. These are usually from:
- Pulls, tears, collisions, etc. (Acute conditions)
- Micro-trauma (Accumulation of small tears)
- Not enough oxygen to the muscle/tendon (Hypoxia)
