The Activator Method is a low-force technique and is the most popular technique of its kind in contemporary chiropractic care. It
was developed to restore correct balance and it uses specific adjustment systems that enable excellent comfort and safety. A handheld instrument delivers a concentrated impulse with the help of a spring-loaded mechanism. This impulse serves to correct any defective segments of the spine. Patients typically enjoy the Activator Method because they deliver the proper correction without the need for hands-on thrusting movements. Spinal adjustments with the Activator Method can eliminate muscle contraction because the adjustments are made more quickly than a manual adjustment, therefore, the body has no time to tighten up. This method offers quality adjustments with a less-powerful force since it does not overcompensate by tightening muscles in the surrounding area.
