Pro-Adjuster

 

Did you know that chiropractic treatment and reorientation of the nervous system can be done painlessly without any popping or cracking sounds, and no jerking or pulling of the body and neck!!!

Chiropractors and their patients know that manual adjustments are safe and effective, regardless of what technique is used, as long as the practitioner has the knowledge and skill to apply the method properly. 

However, sometimes people who have never experienced a chiropractic treatment may be fearful because of something they have seen, read or been told about what they might see, feel or experience with a chiropractic treatment.  With the use of the Pro-Adjuster equipment and techniques, virtually all of these fears simply disappear.  If you are looking for the perfect spinal analysis, the perfect treatment, and the perfect adjustment—one that is on target, precise, and easy on the body every time; one that is painless, with no popping or cracking noises, yet highly effective, then the Pro-Adjuster is the ideal solution for you.  

Pro-Adjuster is great for:

People with arthritis

People with Osteoporosis

Previous back or neck surgery

People with a general fear of manual manipulation

How does it work?

To better understand, let’s examine the idea of palpation.  When a chiropractor palpates your spine, they are checking for joint fluidity, motion, and or rigidity.  Improper motion is called a subluxation.  In a similar fashion to palpation, the Pro-Adjuster can determine whether the vertebra is too rigid or too fluid.  The spine should not be too rigid, nor should it be too flexible.  However, instead of utilizing the doctor’s judgment to determine that the Pro-Adjuster measures precise levels of fixation.  Therefore, the Pro-Adjuster can isolate a problem area faster and more accurately than any of us can do manually. 

 

The Pro-Adjuster utilizes a precise oscillating force with uninterrupted motion.  It is able to increase the mobility of the spinal segments by reducing or eliminating the fixations.  In other words, the Pro-Adjuster is “unsticking” the joint.  Have you ever seen a woodpecker tapping in an oscillating fashion on a tree?  It is hard to believe, but you can watch them bore right through the hardest wood!  The Pro-Adjuster taps in much the same way, but uses soft tips that are comfortable to the human body and do not create damage.

Pro Adjuster is a Gentle arthritis treatment

Arthritis pain and the limits it places on your life may soon be eliminated.  Arthritis is a condition of the entire body, but it is most often seen in the joints.  A friend, loved one, or even you, may wake up with body stiffness all over, or experience pain that limits activity.

It is estimated that most people over the age of 50 have some form of the problem (usually osteoarthritis).   Many people much younger can also suffer the effects of arthritis.  It is sometimes traced to stress placed on the body, more specifically spinal stress, that causes wear and tear on the joints.  The body’s natural defense can often be seen on x-rays of the spine where spurring or bone growth has developed as a way to build up a weakened area.  The standard approach for many people is to treat the symptoms of pain and joint discomfort with drugs.  This is only a temporary fix at best.  Wouldn’t it make more sense to find the cause of the problem?  Ask your doctor how Pro-Adjuster technology can be a part of successfully alleviating your arthritic condition. 

 Pro-Adjuster Helps You Go the distance with your pregnancy

Pregnancy is extremely hard on the lower back as well as on the neck and shoulders.  Examine the spine of an expectant mother from the side and it is easy to understand why they’re in pain.  Due to the increased development of the breast tissue, the shoulders are rounded forward, placing tremendous pressure on the neck and shoulders.  The weight of the growing child places the lower back in a strenuous position.  The nine months of pregnancy bring many hormonal changes that relax the ligaments stabilizing the lower back and pelvis. As the pelvis rotates down in the front, the muscles of the lower back become short and tight, causing An increase in pressure on the pain sensitive joints of the lower back, producing achy lower back pain.
