Gentle Chiropractic Techniques
Activator Method® & Torque Release Technique®
In addition to traditional chiropractic care, we offer low-force chiropractic techniques designed to be both gentle and highly specific. Activator Method® and Torque Release Technique® (TRT) are modern approaches that focus on improving spinal motion and nervous system function without the twisting, popping, or force commonly associated with traditional adjustments. These techniques are well-suited for patients of all ages, including children, seniors, and those who prefer a more comfortable, conservative style of care.
Activator Method®
Activator Method® uses a handheld, spring-loaded instrument to deliver a quick, controlled impulse to specific areas of the spine or extremities. This allows the joint to move without the need for manual manipulation.
The Activator instrument delivers a consistent and measurable adjustment, which makes it especially useful for precise care and repeatable outcomes. Many patients appreciate that the technique is comfortable and does not involve sudden movements.
Torque Release Technique® (TRT)
Torque Release Technique® is a neurologically based chiropractic approach that focuses on identifying and correcting spinal patterns that interfere with optimal nervous system function. Using a detailed analysis and gentle instrument-based adjustments, TRT aims to reduce stress within the nervous system and help the body adapt more effectively.
TRT adjustments are extremely light and precise, delivered with an instrument that applies minimal force. This allows the nervous system to respond without triggering protective muscle tension, making the technique especially effective and comfortable.
Which Technique Is Right for You?
Every patient is different. Some patients respond best to one technique, while others benefit from a combination of both. During your examination, we determine which approach—or combination—is most appropriate based on your history, goals, and how your body responds to care.
