Active Release Techniques (ART®) is a myofascial release method that uses your movement during treatment to address restricted soft tissues—muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. Whether you’re managing everyday joint or muscle pain, recovering from surgery, or navigating living with a sensitive system, ART® offers a gentle, effective alternative to standard massage, injections or surgery.
With typical massage, your body lies passively while pressure is applied. With ART®, you actively participate. We treat the muscle while it moves. For example: when working on a calf muscle, you’ll press your foot “down like on a gas pedal,” then slowly lift it upward as I apply gentle pressure to the tissue. This collaboration allows for more precise targeting of restrictions. Significant improvement is common after just a few sessions.
Common conditions include repetitive-use injuries, tendinopathy, whiplash, joint motion limitations, sprains and strains. At Soft-Tissue Solutions, LLC ART® is often combined with lymphatic therapy and other soft-tissue treatments.
Anyone experiencing soft-tissue pain, stagnation, stiffness or joint restriction can benefit. By restoring proper muscle and fascia function, you enable more efficient movement—even for simple tasks like walking across a room.
