Active Release Techniques® (A.R.T.) is a highly successful, manual approach to the diagnosis and treatment of soft tissues – muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves and fascia. It allows the doctor to identify areas of dysfunction and restriction in the soft tissues based on the way they move and feel.

The technique facilitates the removal of this dysfunction by applying tension with the thumb or fingers while bringing the tissue through certain motions.
