Chiropractic is a very effective method of treating a variety of conditions, especially spinal problems and symptoms that come from them such as back pain and headaches.  But some people either are afraid of getting a Chiropractic adjustment or are in a category where they should have much force at all used on their spine.  Such as people with osteoporosis or young children.  But there are gentle Chiropractic techniques that are effective and can be used for most of those people.  The one that has the most scientific research supporting it is Activator Methods technique which has been around for more than 50 years.  Today, Dr. Nedd will cover:

  • Why the Activator Methods technique was developed.
  • Why the Activator adjustment can get the same results as a manual adjustment, but with much less force.
  • How the results are not just backed up by what doctors and patients say but by clinical research.
  • Who the Activator Methods technique is especially good for.
  • Why this was the only adjusting technique our mother allowed to be used on her for the last 20 years of her life.
