The Active Release Technique (ART) is a highly effective, hands-on treatment method used to address soft tissue injuries, muscle tension, and nerve impingements. At Rosenberg Wellness Center in NYC, we specialize in using ART to help patients find relief from pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall function. Led by Dr. Jeff Rosenberg, our team is dedicated to providing personalized care that targets the root causes of your discomfort, enabling you to regain your health and well-being.
What is Active Release Technique (ART)?
Active Release Technique is a manual therapy that focuses on treating soft tissue problems, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. ART is commonly used to treat conditions like muscle strains, tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and sciatica. The technique involves precise movements combined with targeted pressure to break up scar tissue, improve blood flow, and restore normal tissue function.
How ART Works
ART works by addressing the adhesions or scar tissue that develop in soft tissues due to repetitive motion, overuse, or injury. These adhesions can restrict movement, cause pain, and affect your range of motion. During an ART session, Dr. Rosenberg will use his hands to apply specific pressure to the affected area while guiding you through specific movements. This combination helps break down scar tissue, stretch tight muscles, and release trapped nerves, leading to improved function and reduced pain.
Benefits of Active Release Technique
ART offers numerous benefits, making it an excellent choice for individuals dealing with chronic pain, sports injuries, or repetitive strain conditions. Key benefits include:
- Pain Relief: ART targets the underlying adhesions that cause pain, providing immediate and lasting relief.
- Improved Mobility: By breaking down scar tissue and releasing tight muscles, ART helps restore normal movement patterns, enhancing your flexibility and range of motion.
- Enhanced Performance: For athletes and active individuals, ART can help optimize muscle function, improve performance, and reduce the risk of future injuries.
- Quick Recovery: ART is known for its fast results, often providing significant improvements in just a few sessions.

- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: ART can help break down scar tissue in the wrist and forearm, reducing pressure on the median nerve and alleviating symptoms.
