Long Island Neck Pain Alleviated Naturally With Chiropractic Techniques

By Guy Stannard


Neck pain is not something a person can tolerate for extended periods of time without it creating additional problems. The stresses and strains in the muscles and tendons soon affect other parts of the body. For people who have not had success with other therapies in Long Island Active Release Technique may be the answer.

ART is a patented process that is a state of the art massage method designed to manage soft tissue issues. It was developed in the eighties and introduced to the industry in 1991. It is used in many chiropractic offices though it may only be performed by those who have completed the necessary training to become a credentialed provider of this approach.

This application is hands-on and is quite different from other types of massage therapies. It is usually used only when no other method has succeeded in providing relief in issues involving ligaments, muscles, fascia, tendons and nerves. Most of the patients who require this approach have acute, chronically overused muscle tissue, postoperative complications or repetitive strain injuries.

The primary purpose of ART is to help patients regain motion, texture and functioning of the soft tissue. It also aims to release and nerves and blood vessels that have become trapped or pinched. Fibrous adhesion can impede the proper movement interaction between muscles and fascia, so these obstacles must also be removed.

There are many conditions that are served by this unique method. Among these are carpal tunnel syndrome, spine and back pains, tendinitis, sciatica, headaches, TMJ, shin splints, whiplash and inflammatory disorders in various joints. It has also proven useful in cases where muscle overuse or surgeries have caused a build up of scar tissue that creates painful restrictions.

Several sessions may be necessary to fully address the target issue though one should experience less pain, numbing and tingling and more range of motion and strength after just one application. Those who follow through with any exercises, stretches and lifestyle changes recommended are less likely to have their condition return. The results tend to be very predictable because the approach is so specific.
