Repetitive motion and overuse injuries often result in soft tissue pain. With some injuries, scar tissue can develop, leading to a decreased range of motion. The Active Release Technique (ART) is a natural method for dealing with soft tissue pain. At Lifetime Health and Wellness, serving Westminster and Broomfield, CO, our team provides ART in addition to other chiropractic care methods to help patients heal and recover.
What Is ART?
Adhesions or scar tissue can bind nerves, fascia, and muscle. This can lead to a great deal of pain as well as a limited range of motion. ART involves breaking up adhesions so that your muscles, ligaments, and fascia can all work normally again. In doing so, it alleviates stress on your nerves as well.
The Active Release Technique is customized to meet the needs of each patient. It includes more than 500 different hand motions, which are performed by our trained practitioners. They can be used alone or combined with more comprehensive chiropractic care as needed.

You could benefit from Active Release Technique if you have any of the following:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Tennis elbow
- Bursitis
- Frozen shoulder
- Recurring migraines
- Plantar fasciitis
- Sciatica
- Shin splints
This is not an all-exhaustive list, as ART can successfully treat a number of soft tissue injuries. You can benefit if you are experiencing back, neck, or shoulder pain, as well.
