Muscle tightness, repetitive activity, sports, and prolonged positions can contribute to discomfort and restricted movement. Active Release uses targeted hands-on pressure together with active movement to work with selected muscles and soft tissues. At Hyland Physiotherapy and Wellness, we provide Active Release in Surrey BC based on the affected area and the individual’s movement needs.
Here are the main treatment areas our Active Release care can address:
At our Active Release clinic in Surrey BC, the treatment approach is based on the tissues and movements identified during assessment. Pressure and movement can be adjusted according to comfort and response.
Active Release involves applying targeted manual pressure to selected areas while the patient performs a controlled movement. The combination allows the therapist to work with specific tissues while considering how they move during an activity.
Before treatment, the therapist assesses the affected area and observes relevant movement. This helps identify where treatment should be focused rather than applying the same technique across a large area.
Active Release may be combined with stretching, strengthening, mobility exercises, and other physiotherapy techniques. The goal is to make hands-on treatment part of a broader plan that supports comfortable movement and activity.
Muscle tightness and movement restrictions can return when the body is exposed to repetitive work, sports, exercise, or prolonged positions. Hyland Physiotherapy and Wellness offers Active Release in Surrey as part of an individualized approach to selected soft-tissue and movement concerns.
Here are several concerns that may be addressed during ongoing Active Release care:
Regular review helps determine whether the treatment focus should remain the same or change as movement and symptoms improve. We aim to combine hands-on care with practical exercises and movement strategies.
Active Release combines targeted manual pressure with controlled movement. This allows treatment to be connected with how the affected muscles and soft tissues move rather than relying only on passive treatment.
We assess the area and relevant movement before treatment. This helps identify which tissues may require attention and allows the treatment approach to remain focused.
Hands-on treatment can be useful as part of a broader rehabilitation program. When appropriate, we combine Active Release with stretching, strengthening, mobility exercises, and practical activity guidance.
