Learn About The ART Which Is How Chiropractic Helps Sport Injuries In Long Island

By Frank Carbart


Spinal adjustments are the major care method used to relieve pain among injured clients. This care aligns the spinal vertebrae when they are subluxated, meaning they are out of place. A subluxation causes pressure against the small, semi-liquid discs that lie between the vertebrae. These are not the only injuries that occur. For soft tissue damage, Long Island Active Release Techniques Therapy is appropriate.

The chiropractor must complete additional training to be certified as ART qualified. The procedure used addresses soft tissue damage, hoping to return the function to the texture. The care achieves release of nerves and blood vessels that are trapped within the adhesions.

An adhesion is the combining of two adjacent soft tissues. It can be caused by repetitive motion such as typing, ongoing pressure or an injury. ART alleviates or eliminates the pain associated with this soft tissue abnormality.

A licensed chiropractor completes an extended number of years acquiring an education. For certification in ART it is required that he or she learn over five-hundred additional care methods. Pressure, tension and motion are involved in this technique. The end result is enabling the tissue and muscle layers to come together to function correctly.

If traditional methods are not able to eliminate the root cause of adhesions and other features of a soft tissue abnormality, ART will often be able to do so. This advanced training prepares for this capability. Usually the individual will require six to ten applications.

This practitioner does not view the body as a group of systems. Instead they see it as one individual unit. Since they have training in biomedical analysis they can use ART to restore optimal functioning of the body.

This is a non-invasive method of chiropractic care without side effects. One unusual factor is that there can be a mild feeling of pain as the adhesions are being broken down. This discomfort does not extend beyond a brief moment. It is gone before the session has ended. Clients report a feeling of release that accompanies the mild and temporary pain.
