Active Release Techniques (ART®) ART® is a patented, state of the art movement-based soft tissue technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves.  It helps by breaking down soft tissue adhesions (scar tissue), which can lead to a reduced range of motion, loss of strength, numbness, tingling, and/or pain.  Scar tissue build up can be the result of recent injuries such as sprains, strains or bruises; or due to repetitive motion as in athletic training or in the workplace setting.  Most musculoskeletal conditions can be treated with ART®.

Commonly treated conditions with ART®:

  • sports injuries
  • back and neck pain
  • headaches
  • whiplash
  • shin splints
  • plantar fasciitis
  • carpal tunnel syndrome
  • knee problems
  • golf/tennis elbow
  • nerve entrapments/impingements

Dr. Tara helped me with two nagging issues. For 8 years I have had pain in my neck caused by a pinched nerve. Doctors prescribed various types of drugs to treat the pain but nothing worked. Dr. Tara treated the pain by using soft tissue treatment and chiropractic adjustments. Today I have full mobility and no pain!

The second issue relates to tendonitis in my elbow. It gradually got worse over one year. By the time I saw Dr. Tara I couldn’t even hold a pen. She treated my elbow with laser, acupuncture, and Active Release Therapy.

I can’t thank Dr. Tara enough!
