Adhesion Release

Adhesions are areas where muscle and fascia don’t glide well—often creating a “stuck,” tight, or sore feeling that limits how you move. With specialized hands-on care and guided movement, these restrictions can often improve.

Understanding Adhesions

Adhesions can develop when connective tissue (fascia) and surrounding muscles begin to bind and move less freely. This can restrict normal motion, reduce flexibility, and contribute to ongoing discomfort—especially after injury, surgery, repetitive strain, or long periods of guarded movement.

Common signs include:

Pain and stiffness

Persistent tightness, tenderness, or sore “hot spots”

Limited range of motion

Restricted movement that affects workouts and daily life

The Most Common Cause of Chronic Pain in the Body

We do 3 things differently than every other pain clinic out there.

We meet you.

We use a series of specialized test, checking for restrictions in range of motion and quantify the discomfort they create. We look to recreate your pain pattern with palpation, which signals to us which nerves and or tissues have adhesion. Suggestion For Client We ask clients to wear a sports bra and loose-fitting shorts that can easily be pulled up over the glute area for treatment.

We specialize in finding and fixing adhesion

We use Active Release Techniques® model of finding the glue between your muscles and removing it. In fact, we’re the only full-body Adhesion Release Methods Licensed clinic in Minneapolis! The provider will identify the areas that require treatment, then the client will go through a series of range of motion movements as the provider removes the adhesion. Shockwave therapy is also utilized to further breakdown adhesion and bring fresh blood flow to the area for continued healing.

We use the Test-Treat-Retest Methodology of treatment.

We get results in real-time. Immediately. Often after the very first treatment. There is no fluff. We find the cause of your pain and make it go away. We absolutely love to inspire hope where other healthcare practitioners have failed. This is the reason why we attract chronic pain patients, those who have been to multiple healthcare professionals, who left them feeling gas lit and disappointed when Western medicine testing was inconclusive, and without finding the path to successful long-term healing
