Looking for a super gentle chiropractor who performs comfortable, gentle adjustments? Children, teens, or adults who may hesitate to get the spinal care they need will love seeing a gentle chiropractor.
Gentle chiropractor
There are many ways a chiropractor can correct spinal function, or adjust your spine. When you want a super gentle chiropractor, you are looking for one who incorporates instrument adjusting methods. Of course, we also use precise alignments done by hand, using gentle methods to adjust only problematic vertebrae. Here, we don’t do generalized adjustments.
Instrument adjusting
The gentle chiropractor may use a specialized tool, or “instrument adjusting.” The adjusting instrument can be one of several types. One delivers a single impulse to the spine. That type is usually called an activator, and there is a whole chiropractic technique developed around the activator method. There are also instruments that deliver multiple little impulses, which may feel like a vibration. The idea is the same as the activator, except the adjusting instrument delivers several gentle movements in a short time. These types of adjustment instruments, called an arthrostim adjusting instrument, or an impact adjusting instrument, are super gentle. That adjusting instrument can even make you laugh. My patients have often said “I love that thing.”
Arthrostim adjusting
The arthrostim adjusting instrument is a chiropractic tapping instrument. Chiropractic tapping devices deliver a group of little taps to one vertebra instead of one impulse. What’s great is that many little adjustments are just as effective as one chiropractic adjustment. During your alignment, you notice that your body is rebalancing, and your muscles turning back on. After we are done, you experience how such gentle adjustments can be so effective.
