Typically, our doctors might use instruments by themselves or in combination with other adjusting techniques, but of course this will depend on the approach they feel is best for your specific treatment.
The ArthroStim® Device
The ArthroStim Instrument is a handheld machine that aids your chiropractor in performing adjustments. This powerful tool delivers 12-14 incremental thrusts per second, making it much stronger and faster than a typical single thrust administered by a chiropractor. By dividing the energy of a single thrust into rapid successive inputs, the ArthroStim Instrument modulates the force your physician applies in treatment, but in a much more comfortable and effective manner.
The Intergrator Instrument
The intergrator is the only handheld instruments with adjustable left and right ‘torque’ compatible, as well as ‘recoil’ and true alignment of force, and unlike most other instruments available, is a legally marketed medical device for the adjustment of the vertebral subluxation only available to licensed Doctors of Chiropractic. The intergrator has an incredible speed of 1/10,000th of a second. The instrument delivers a precise, fast, gentle and specific adjustment.
Care recommendations depend on an individual examination. Results vary from patient to patient.
