Active Release Techniques (ART) were developed, refined, and patented by P. Michael Leahy, DC, CCSP. It is a state-of-the-art soft tissue system/movement-based massage technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. ART therapy is successfully used to quickly and permanently treat conditions like headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow, all of which are often the result of overused muscles.
The entire team at Performance Health & Wellness are ART Certified, at the highest level, and Dr. Christian Barney is a lead instructor on the board of education for ART.
