Activator Methods® in Burlington
How the Adjusting Process Works
Activator Methods rely on a small, spring-loaded device called the Activator Adjusting Instrument.
Here’s how the process typically works:
- Assessment:
We begin with leg length analysis and gentle body movement tests to identify joints that may be restricted or misaligned.
- Adjustment:
Once those areas are located, the device delivers a controlled, quick impulse to help restore motion and alignment.
- Speed and Accuracy:
The instrument moves faster than your reflexes, preventing muscle resistance while ensuring comfort & precision.
The Benefits of Gentle Adjusting
For many individuals, this method offers unique advantages:
- Precise targeting that allows for highly focused adjustments
- Comfortable application, suitable for children, seniors, or those with acute discomfort
- Minimal muscle tension during adjustments due to the instrument’s speed
- Improved mobility and flexibility following care
- A calmer experience that eases concerns about chiropractic techniques
This approach may be well-suited for you if you prefer a more subtle style, feel cautious about manual adjustments, or have health considerations that require a lighter touch. Families often value that this method can be adapted for individuals of all ages—from young children to older adults.
