New Article: Active Release Technique … Athletic Injuries & Shin Splints

Shin Splints is a general term used to refer to a painful condition of the shins. The most common cause is inflammation to the periosteum, the outer sheath of the shinbone (tibia). Specifically, the pain associated with shin splints is the result of fatigue and trauma to the muscles and tendons where they attach to the tibia.

   In 2002 I discovered Active Release Techniques, ART, a medically patented technique developed by Dr. Michael Leahy. I was amazed at the ART treatment I personally received which immediately resolved my chronic shoulder, knee, and ankle problems that had responded minimally to other types of care. ART gave me my life back. I got my life back, I began running, cycling, swimming, etc.. I give all the credit to ART.
