OFFICE HOURS
The Activator uses a low force high velocity thrust that delivers an adjustment in 3-5 milliseconds whereas a manual adjust in 150-200 milliseconds. With this quick adjustment, it doesn't give your muscles time to react to the adjustment. With this method there is no twisting or cranking. As a patient you are able to leave the office feeling better and not sore from the adjustment.
Treatment
consists of the patient laying face down on the bed while the doctor
looks at his/her feet. The doctor will figure out if one leg is shorter
than the other. When he brings the legs up the short leg will either
get longer or it stays short. This will tell him what side needs to be
adjusted. To figure out what area/segments needs to be adjusted the
doctor will instruct the patient to go through different types of
motions that will stress the muscle groups of certain segments. If you
are misaligned in that area your leg will shorten.
