Our Technique

Chiropractic, as with all healing or health care practices, is an art. This art is developed over time through experience, continued education and collaboration with other professionals. All the doctors associated with Healing Hands Family Chiropractic are trained in such a way that no matter what provider you see, the treatment and care you receive will be nearly identical.

We only use low force techniques that are scientifically proven to get optimum restoration of joint movement and restored neurological function. We almost exclusively utilize an Activator IV to facilitate our adjustments.

The Activator Method Chiropractic Technique is a gentle, low-force approach to chiropractic care. Incorporating the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic exams, this unique system of administering adjustments can help restore spinal and joint balance, safely and comfortably. The technique utilizes specific protocols to detect joint dysfunction, analyze leg length inequality, identify issues with body mechanics and test neurological reflexes.

The Activator instrument is a hand held instrument that provides a controlled, fast thrust that is comfortable for the patient while being able to restore maximal joint movement. Patients of all ages can enjoy the benefits of an Activator adjustment. The low force thrust of the Activator Adjusting Instrument, and the doctor’s ability to pinpoint the exact location of the problem through Activator analysis, can help relieve a patient’s pain or symptoms without discomfort. By restoring spinal and joint balance, chiropractic care aids in restoring the body’s ability to navigate stress and heal itself.
