The premier form of soft-tissue treatment to remove adhesion/scar tissue. Adhesion is one of the number one cause (next to degeneration/arthritis) for muscle and joint pain, but unfortunately the most under-diagnosed condition. Adhesion acts like glue among muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, and even nerves. As a result, this reduces flexibility, strength, and stability to the body. Adhesion along nerves can cause numbness, aching, tension, tingling, and in some cases weakness. This is called nerve entrapment which can happen throughout the body. Some common conditions in this scenario include carpal tunnel, sciatica, and tarsal tunnel syndrome to name a few. MAR (Manual Adhesion Release) is the quickest and most effective way at fixing nerve entrapment. Other common conditions that are treated are low back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, shin splints, headaches, knee pain (runner’s knee, IT Band syndrome, jumper’s knee), chronically tight hamstrings or quads, etc. Also know as active release or myofascial release.
