    Active Release Technique (ART)

    Over the past several years, Dr. Don Bresnahan has undergone extensive studies in a revolutionary new technique called Active Release Technique (ART). 

    Every time you are injured even slightly, your muscles fibers tear microscopically.  Your body patches these tears by forming scar tissue.  The amount and direction of this scar tissue is critical to the long-term outcome of the healing process.  In most instances, there is excessive scar tissue which tends to act as glue which can cause layers of tissue to get stuck together and not function properly.  Sometimes this can even cause the surrounding nerves to become trapped in the scar tissue which, as you can imagine, creates a host of other problems (tingling, numbness, weakness,…) in the affected region.

    Many problems which have not responded well to standard therapies in the past are resolved with ART treatment.  We have had tremendous results with headaches, back pain, shin splints, shoulder pain, knee problems, plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel, sciatica, tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, recurring sprains and strains, and many other challenging conditions.
