The various functions of our bodies are controlled and directed through the nervous system.  Our nervous system consists of not just the brain and the spinal cord but also the nerves which pass through small openings between the spinal vertebrae to every part of the body.  Clearly a damaged or misaligned spine will have a detrimental affect on health and a healthy spine has to be a key to maintaining the health of our bodies. Chiropractic techniques allow us to achieve a healthy spine and help to keep the nervous system in good repair.

“Taking the "Crack" out of Chiropractic” is how Wellness First LLC describe the Activator treatments.  They mention that there are thousands of people who are not aware that the Activator Method of chiropractic is a gentle, low-force alternative to traditional chiropractic.

“The Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique (AMCT) has evolved through 25 years of empirical study and ten years of clinical research in the U.S. and Europe. It uses the latest advances in orthopaedic, neurological and chiropractic examinations to detect joint dysfunction in the spinal column and extremities. Activator Chiropractors use the Activator Adjusting Instrument to give consistent low-force, high-speed chiropractic adjustments, which are accurate, effortless, painless and effective in alleviating pain and improving health. Without the ‘crack’.”
