Impulse Adjusting Technique

We use one of the most popular “low force” chiropractic techniques in the world.

First the Evaluation

We begin by analysing how well your spine moves. We test how well you turn and bend. While you’re lying face down, we’ll evaluate the length of your legs. This simple procedure can reveal significant differences in leg lengths. Click here to try a simple leg-length home test.

This time-tested protocol tells us if subluxations exist and their location. It also helps us know when to adjust and when not to adjust.

The Adjusting Instrument

Over 15 years of research and engineering has gone into the design of the Impulse adjusting instrument.

Just as lasers have replaced scalpels in some surgeries, advanced technology has become available to chiropractors to assist in delivering chiropractic adjustments.

Dr. Fowler and thousands of other doctors around the world now use the Impulse Adjusting Instrument in the care of their patients. This patented and FDA registered device was specifically created to deliver gentle and precise chiropractic adjustments to the joints of the spine and extremities to relieve pain and restore function.

Impulse adjusting is a new technique developed to provide controlled treatments to the specific areas you’re having trouble with. Dr. Fowler uses the Impulse Adjusting Instrument rather than the older traditional manual methods.

Impulse adjustments are high tech. There is no popping or cracking with these adjustment, but rather a very precise targeted adjustment designed to specifically care for just the right area.

Years of research have gone into the development of the Impulse Instruments to create gentle chiropractic adjustments that are safe and effective for patients of all ages.

What does it feel like?

Chiropractic adjustments with the Impulse Adjusting Instrument feel like a light tapping sensation on the area that is being treated. In most cases the treatment is painless and after the adjustment many patients feel relief of pain and improved mobility. Others report a sense of well-being or soothing calmness. Of course, results vary from case to case and chronic conditions, inflammation or muscle spasms may delay these positive effects.

The Follow Up

After your adjustment, we retest to make sure changes have been produced. Testing afterwards helps us deliver high-quality care and high levels of patient satisfaction.

If you’ve been to a chiropractor before and prefer to be adjusted in a particular way, let know. We want you to relax, enjoy and fully benefit from your chiropractic care.
