Active Release Technique at

Hycroft Chiropractic and Massage

A common misconception about chiropractic is that chiropractors only adjust. Even though the adjustment is the most common technique utilized by a chiropractor, it is only one tool found in a chiropractors tool belt.  Another frequently used treatment focuses at soft tissue treatment. The leading technique system focused at soft tissue treatment is Active Release Technique (ART)®.

Active Release Technique® is a hands-on treatment technique that allows the provider to diagnose and treat soft tissue injuries from the foot complaints to headaches. Specific injuries that benefit greatly from Active Release Technique® include repetitive use injuries, strains, adhesions, joint dysfunction and nerve entrapments.

Active Release Technique® is used worldwide by chiropractors and various other health care practitioners. Patients that have been observed to benefit greatly from ART® includes a vast spectrum of individuals from high-level professional athletes to the general public. As an ART® provider I have the knowledge and skill base to treat various muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves and joints throughout the body.

Active Release Technique® can be easily incorporated into a chiropractic treatment plan. Dr. Daniel Birch at Hycroft Chiropractic and Massage utilizes a variety of treatment options including spinal manipulation, mobilization, patient education, exercise rehabilitation and Active Release Technique®.
