ArthroStim Adjustment: How Does It Work?

Adjustments using specialized instruments are gaining popularity among patients and practitioners of chiropractic due to their ease of use and safety features.

With the help of our chiropractors in Shelby County Chiropractic, you can learn all about the ArthroStim instrument and how it can help you. Let’s learn more about the benefits of the ArthroStim technique.

What is ArthroStim Adjustment?

As part of instrument-assisted adjustments, ArthroStim adjustment has paved a new way in chiropractic treatments. This method is performed by a handheld instrument that helps a chiropractor effectively modulate the force applied during the treatment.

Most people feel uneasy when their joints and trigger points are being ‘popped’ during traditional chiropractic treatments. But the ArthroStim adjustment technique helps patients feel comfortable as it does not make popping and cracking sounds during an adjustment.

While ArthroStim treatment is being performed, the chiropractor can exert the right amount of pressure needed to adjust your spinal cord and other parts of the body. By using the ArthroStim adjusting instrument and spinal adjustment techniques, chiropractors can increase the force, starting from a few ounces to up to 40 pounds. Moreover, these thrusts can focus on small areas helping your chiropractor reach body parts that are otherwise difficult to reach through manual adjustment treatments.

How Does ArthroStim Chiropractic Instrument Adjusting Work?

To understand how ArthroStim Adjustment Treatment works, you first need to know how chiropractic treatments generally work.

Chiropractic adjustments create thrusts that trigger neural receptors of the affected area. These receptors then send signals to the brain about the pressure being exerted on the damaged area, which is induced by these adjustments. The brain then sends commands to the muscular system to initiate the healing process within the body.

ArthroStim works on the same principle but at a faster rate. As opposed to a single thrust being given by a chiropractor manually, this tool can deliver increments of 12 to 14 thrusts per second.

The energy is divided between these increments that a single thrust in one go would have given. With the help of these administered repetitive motions, receptors take less time and effort to deliver information to the brain.

The instrument itself looks like a drill and is also held like one. Undergoing instrument adjustment, such as ArthroStim adjustment, has fewer side effects than a manual adjustment. You will also notice the difference between muscle soreness after an ArthroStim adjustment.

Benefits Of ArthroStim Technique

The ArthroStim instrument is useful for treating a wide range of illnesses and disorders because it allows a doctor to use much less force without compromising the efficiency of your therapy. Here are some examples of people who might gain the most from using the ArthroStim instrument:

  • Younger children
  • People experiencing severe or constant discomfort
  • People who are very sensitive
  • People who have an aversion to getting cracked
  • People with chronic neck discomfort
  • People who have reached a certain age

The neurological support provided by the ArthroStim instrument is useful for everyone, including those who are significantly bigger and stronger than the average patient, and so find it more challenging to adapt to a conventional single thrust.

Take the next step toward enhancing your health and well-being with the revolutionary ArthroStim chiropractic instrument adjustment. Discover the numerous benefits it offers for a wide range of conditions. Whether you are seeking relief from chronic discomfort, have sensitivity concerns, or simply prefer a gentle approach, the ArthroStim instrument is the ideal solution.
