Active Release Techniques, Spine Level 1

Course Information
The ART Spine Course is designed to identify and effectively treat common issues that involve the cervical, lumbar, and thoracic spine. With many spine issues, it may be necessary to treat both the upper and lower extremities for full resolution. Manual techniques are utilized to move the tissue and joints while under tension. The system allows for relative motion between the tissues and articulations.

Evaluation and treatment occur simultaneously.

The course emphasizes the manipulation of the neuro-musculoskeletal system to diagnose and correct alterations in tissue texture, tension, movement, and function.

The ART Spine Course consists of 82 protocols including peripheral nerve entrapments.
