ADJUSTMENTS/ MANIPULATION

The term "adjustment" refers to the specific manipulation chiropractors apply to vertebrae that have abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. The objective of the chiropractic treatment is to reduce the subluxation, which results in an increased range of motion, reduced nerve irritability and improved function.

The technique used to perform an adjustment varies among chiropractors. At our office, we primarily use the Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique (AMCT). AMCT uses the Activator Instrument to give gentle, consistent, low-force, high-speed chiropractic adjustments. We chose this technique because it is highly researched, can be used on a wider range of people, and is comfortable. Not only does AMCT help us determine when to adjust, it also helps us to determine when not to.

Dr. Jason and Dr. Shelley are both Advanced Rated Activator Certified. Please feel free to visit www.activator.com for more information.
