Featured Topic: How "Active Release Technique" Can Help Your Body Feel Better. In this week's interview, I speak with Dr. Kevin Christie, who is a chiropractic physician and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) who specializes in sports medicine and fitness. Dr. Christie is also certified in Active Release Technique (ART) and Graston Technique, which are the leading soft-tissue diagnostic and treatment protocols that deal with over-use strain that plagues today’s society. During our discussion, Kevin answers the following questions:

What is ART?

What type of conditions is it useful for?

How quickly can someone experience success with ART?

Are there things ART shouldn’t be used for?

Can you walk us through a typical ART treatment?

Can anybody do ART, or should people be looking for someone with a certification?
