What is the Activator Methods Technique?

Activator Methods Technique is a gentle, low-force program of chiropractic care.  It has been safely used for over 35 years to benefit people with a wide range of health problems -- without drugs or surgery!  The Activator Technique incorporates the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examinations along with a unique system of administering spinal adjustments using a hand-held instrument called an Activator.

The Activator instrument has been scientifically designed to give you a very specific, "low-force" adjustment.  It delivers a controlled, light, and fast thrust, without causing undue strain to patients.  Activator adjustments are so quick and controlled, your body's muscles are less likely to resist, allowing for a more precise and exact adjustment.  One of the unique features of the Activator Technique is that we can zero in on the exact area of the body that is causing your health problems.
