The Activator Method Chiropractic Technique

The Activator Method is a low-force chiropractic technique that delivers a quick and specific thrust with a hand-held instrument. Developed in the 1960s, it is one of the most well researched chiropractic techniques and has been published in hundreds of peer-reviewed research papers. Adjustments are very gentle due to the speed and specificity of the instrument, leaving the patient with much less muscle soreness. The Activator allows the patient to comfortably lie down and be adjusted without twisting, cracking, or popping the body. The instrument's strength can be altered so it is safe for anyone, including newborns and the osteoporotic elderly. Dr. Ewert chooses to utilize the Activator Method so everyone can benefit from safe, gentle chiropractic care.
