Active Release Technique

ART is a patented, state of the art soft tissue system/movement based technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow...

Propreoceptice Deep Tendon Reflex

P-DTR® deals with the various sensory receptors (proprioceptors) of the body and the way they affect and modify our movement patterns. These receptors (those for pain, stretch, pressure, hot, cold, vibration, etc.) all send information to the brain for processing and the brain takes this feedback into account when making decisions regarding our movement. 

If this information is incorrect, as is often the case, the brain is making its decisions based on bad information. Pain and dysfunction frequently result. 

Nero Kinetic Therapy

NKT tests muscles against each other to better understand compensation patterns. Ones the compensation pattern is found the facilitated over used muscle is released using ART. This allows the inhibited muscle to fire. All that left is for the client to straighten their muscles at home to help reprogram the motor control center. 

Active Isolated Stretching

Active Isolated Stretching is a highly effective technique in which the body’s neuromuscular response is triggered, allowing muscles, tendons, and fascia to release. Stretches are addressed for each muscle at each attachment point. This release removes muscle tightness, improves range of motion, flexibility, improves circulation, reduces muscle soreness, stiffness, and decreases pain.

Selective Functional Movement Assessment

Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) is the movement based diagnostic system, designed to clinically assess 7 fundamental movement patterns in those with known musculoskeletal pain. The assessment provides an efficient method to systematically find the cause of symptoms, not just the source, by logically breaking down dysfunctional patterns and diagnosing their root cause as either a mobility problem or a stability/motor control problem.
