Activator Method

One of the least aggressive and low force techniques around is this method.  Using a special hand held, spring loaded instrument called an activator gun, a consistent, specific, low-force, high speed adjustment can be given to joint dysfuntion in the spine or extremities.

I prefer to use this technique when treating elderly patients with osteoporosis, patients in acute pain that can't manuever into proper diversified positions and in those patients who have a low pain tolerance.  It is also convenient for TMJ dysfunction and some rib conditions.
