ArthroStim

Chiropractic adjustments help stimulate the body to heal itself.  Traditionally, chiropractors have used single high-energy thrusting and pulling movements to adjust areas of the body.  The adjustments sets a series of events into motion...

The adjustments produces precise movements which stimulate 'neural receptors' in an area.  These receptors, in turn, produce nerve impulses which relay crucial information to the brain.

The brain depends on this 'neurological feedback stream' to update its awareness about an area.  Once the brain evaluates the changes prompted by the adjustment, it issues self-correcting commands to the muscular systems, to bring about healing changes.

Recently, new ways of producing this important neurological feedback stream have been developed.  The ArthroStim    Instrument is one of the most effective and comfortable tools for creating this valuable input in an area.

The ArthroStim   Instrument delivers 12-14 incremental thrusts per second.  By dividng the energy of a single thrust into rapid successive inputs, the ArthroStim  Instruments modulates the (peak) force.  This allows your doctor to administer an extremely comfortable, and highly effective, adjustment.

The secret to the instrument's effectiveness comes from its controlled repetitive input.  This input produces a cumulative "snowballing' effect on neural receptors.

This permits the ArthroStim   Instrument to create extensive neurological feedback to the brain, using greatly reduced forces.

By utilizing controlled, incremental thrusts, the ArthoStim   Instrument is also able to stimulate specific neural receptors (mechanoreceptors and proprioreceptors) without activating undesirable pain receptors.

Individuals that may especially benefit from the use of the ArthroStim   Instrument include:

 INFANTS AND SMALL CHILDREN

ELDERLY INDIVIDUALS

SENSITIVE INDIVIDUALS

ACUTE PAIN

CHRONIC PAIN

SPORT INJURIES

Even individuals who are larger and stronger (and may be difficult to adjust with a single thrust) can benefit from the 'neurological assist' that the ArthroStim   Instrument provides.
