Activator® Technique in Jersey
At The Wellness Centre (Castle Quay), we offer one of the most popular “low force” chiropractic techniques in the world—the Activator handheld instrument that provides precise, gentle adjustments where and when you need it most.
Our team has practiced the Activator Technique for over 20 years due to it being a softer, safer technique that can be used on patients of all ages and health conditions. This method is a more gentle, optional technique that is clinically indicated or preferred by our patients.
The Activator is often ideal for patients of all ages and walks of life. Children love our “clicker instrument,” and seniors can comfortably be adjusted more accurately using less energy.
What to Expect
The Activator instrument is a handheld spring-loaded tool that delivers a consistent low-force, high-speed thrust. It also makes the directed energy more precise, given the exact angle necessary to best add motion to a joint.
Because it’s often faster than adjustments delivered by hand, the body rarely tightens to resist, making adjustments comfortable and effective. It’s also helpful for adjusting elbows, wrists, knees, and other joints of the body.
The best part about this method? If you’re nervous about getting “cracked,” don’t be, as there are no popping sounds to be heard in this type of adjustment.
The Follow Up
After your adjustment, we retest to ensure the desired changes have been produced. Testing afterwards helps us deliver high-quality care and high levels of patient satisfaction.
