Does chiropractic care hurt?

Most of our patients find adjustments to be extremely relaxing, mentioning that it’s one of the best parts of their day. An adjustment may feel like slight pressure if we’re performing a manual technique, but will not be painful. We aim to create a calm and comfortable environment for your healing.

How long will it take to see results?

Because each patient is unique, it’s hard to put a time frame on how quickly you’ll experience positive results from chiropractic care. We’ll develop a custom care plan for you designed to bring you out of pain and into wellness as quickly and effectively as possible. Some patients notice improvement after a few sessions, while chronic injuries may take longer.

Why do professional athletes choose Active Release Technique?

Nearly all NFL, NHL, and NBA teams use ART providers because it effectively treats overuse injuries and enhances performance. ART is the Official Ironman Soft Tissue Massage partner, proving its effectiveness for athletes who push their bodies to the limit daily.

How does ART differ from regular massage therapy?

ART is a patented, movement-based technique that combines examination and treatment simultaneously. The provider uses precisely directed tension with specific patient movements to break up scar tissue and adhesions, unlike traditional massage which focuses on relaxation.

What makes Dr. Luce qualified to perform Active Release Technique?

Can ART help with repetitive strain injuries from desk work?

Yes, ART effectively treats conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, neck pain, and headaches caused by overused muscles from repetitive desk work. The technique targets the specific soft tissues affected by prolonged computer use and poor posture.

How quickly can ART resolve chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis or sciatica?

ART can resolve many conditions quickly and permanently because it addresses the root cause—scar tissue and adhesions in muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Treatment duration varies, but many patients see significant improvement within a few sessions.

What is Active Release Technique (ART)?

ART is a patented, movement-based massage technique that treats problems related to overuse of muscles. When muscles are overused, they can develop small tears, scar tissue, and adhesions that restrict movement and cause pain.

During an ART session, Dr. Luce uses his hands to pinpoint and evaluate the texture and tightness of soft tissues. He then applies precisely directed tension while you perform specific movements, allowing him to break up the scar tissue and release trapped nerves. This restores normal function, relieves pain, and improves range of motion.
