Activator Method
Activator Method is one of the best low force chiropractic techniques in the world.
Very few chiropractors have received the Advanced Proficiency Rating in this technique. Dr. Fife of Advanced Chiropractic Specialists in Las Vegas has had an Advanced Proficiency Rating for over 25 years and has helped thousands of patients.
First the Evaluation
Dr. Fife begins by analyzing how well your spine moves. He will test how well you turn and bend.
While you’re lying face down, we’ll evaluate the length of your legs. This simple procedure can reveal significant differences in leg lengths. This time-tested protocol tells us if spinal distortions/malalignments (subluxations) exist and their exact location. It also helps us know when to adjust and when not to adjust.
The Adjusting Instrument
The Activator Method® Adjusting Instrument is a hand-held instrument that delivers a consistent low-force, high-speed thrust. Because it is significantly faster than adjustments delivered by hand, the body rarely tightens to resist, making adjustments comfortable, effective and virtually pain free.
In the hands of a properly trained chiropractor, such as Dr. Brian Fife this instrument can be angled in all sorts of different directions to administer a low force adjustment at precisely the correct angle.
