New ways to apply Chiropractic care come up frequently. Research is constantly being done so treatment can be given to a variety of people. For example, there are people who swear by Chiropractic care, but do not like human contact. Being that Chiropractic care is a very hands-on profession, this seems nearly impossible. Arlan W. Fuhr DC and J. Michael Menke DC realized this and decided to take matters into their own hands. They came up with the Activator Method which entails .
"a dynamic approach to spinal and somatic dysfunction in which biomechanical lesions are isolated and identified through patient movement designed to isolate and reveal the exact areas of dysfunction. .
With detection, treatment is provided through a mechanical instrument designed to deliver a preset amount of force precisely to correct the lesion" (Fuhr & Menke, 1).
In other words, by using a device designed specifically for this purpose, the Chiropractor can help correct vertebral misalignment instead of using his or her own hands. Some patients actually prefer this method and see it as helping them heal more rapidly. .
Throughout the course of life, human beings encounter such obstacles along the lines of health problems, physical or internal, that medical doctors immediately prescribe drugs for. For some, this is fine, but other people have a problem loading up with laboratory made drugs to overcome illnesses, no matter how severe. Some ailments often immediately associated with Chiropractic care are: whiplash, backache, headaches, and disc (vertebra) problems, which can all be cured with consistent spinal adjustments. There are other disorders that Chiropractic care can help maintain or even cure. These include: respiratory disorders, allergies, digestive disturbances, elevated blood pressure, among others (Chiroweb.net). By finding the root of the condition, Chiropractors can sometimes rid the patient of the problem for good.
