The ArthroStim Instrument, is a handheld machine with similarities to the Pro-Adjuster, Activator and Impulse devices, that aids in performing adjustments without twisting, high force or manipulation. This effective tool delivers 12-14 incremental thrusts per second, making it much faster than a typical single thrust administered by a chiropractor. By dividing the energy of a single thrust into rapid successive inputs, the ArthroStim Instrument modulates the force applied in treatment, but in highly accurate and comfortable application.
In order to understand how an ArthroStim Instrument works, you must understand how chiropractic adjustments work. A chiropractic adjustment produces precise movements which stimulate ‘neural receptors’ in an injured/affected area. These receptors will then produce nerve impulses which transmit important information to the brain. The brain will process this information and use it to update its awareness about the condition of an area. Once the brain evaluates the changes prompted by the adjustment, it can begin sending out self-correcting commands to the muscular system, and other systems, to bring about healing within your body. The ArthroStim is a safe way to administer these adjustments, but it is faster, highly comfortable and efficient due to its controlled repetitive input. This input produces a ‘snowballing’ effect on neural receptors and allows it to transmit more information to the brain with less effort, pain, and force.
