If you are searching for an Active Release Technique® chiropractor near you, you are likely looking for a hands-on treatment approach designed to address muscle tightness, soft tissue restrictions, nerve irritation, and movement limitations that may be contributing to pain.

At Body First Chiropractic, Dr. Justin Hill is certified in Active Release Technique® (ART) and uses ART along with other hands-on manual therapy treatments to help patients improve mobility, reduce pain, and restore function.

What Is Active Release Technique®?

Active Release Technique® (ART) is a specialized hands-on treatment system designed to identify and treat adhesions within muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, and nerves.

ART combines precise pressure with specific patient movement to help improve tissue mobility and reduce adhesions that may be contributing to pain and dysfunction.

Many patients seek Active Release Technique® after other treatments have failed because ART focuses directly on the soft tissues that are restricted and causing the pain.
