The Active Release technique a patented technique that is applied by hand using a very specific pressure and tension on the muscle involved while moving the muscle underneath the therapist’s hand. The affected tissue is trapped while the body part is moved,
taking the tissue from its shortened to elongated position. Relative motion between tissues is introduced in order to restore gliding between those tissues. The Active Release Technique method softens and stretches the scar tissue, resulting in increased range of motion, increased strength, and improved circulation which optimizes healing.
