The Thompson Technique is a hands-on chiropractic method that uses a specialized drop table to
deliver precise, low-force adjustments. Before each correction, a segment of the table is raised
beneath the targeted area. As pressure is applied, the segment drops, allowing gravity to assist
the adjustment. This mechanism helps reduce the force needed while maintaining effectiveness,
making the technique especially comfortable for patients. The Thompson Technique promotes
spinal alignment, reduces pain, and supports overall inability-making it a reliable option for
those seeking a gentle yet effective approach to care
The Activator Method is a gentle, instrument-assisted chiropractic technique designed to deliver
precise, low-force adjustments. Using a spring-loaded hand-held device called the Activator,
chiropractors can target specific joints with controlled speed and minimal pressure-making it
ideal for treating highly sensitive or painful areas. This approach avoids the twisting or cracking
often associated with manual adjustments, which helps maximize patient comfort and reduce
anxiety. The Activator Method is especially useful for patients with acute pain, osteoporosis, or
those who prefer a softer touch. Its precision and consistency make it a trusted tool for restoring
joint function and promoting overall spinal health.
The Diversified Technique is a manual chiropractic approach that uses precise, hands-on
adjustments to restore joint function and reduce pain. By applying a controlled force to specific
spinal or extremity joints, this method helps create separation between joint surfaces-relieving
pressure, improving mobility, and supporting overall joint health. Adjustments often produce a
distinctive "pop," which is the sound ofgas releasing from the joint capsule. Known for its
effectiveness and versatility, the Diversified Technique is widely used to address a range of
musculoskeletal issues and is tailored to each patient's unique needs and comfort level.
Joint mobilizations are a hands-on technique used to improve movement and reduce discomfort
through slow, controlled oscillations. While similar in intent to the Diversified Technique,
mobilizations are applied more gradually and without the high-velocity thrust that often produces
a "pop." This makes them especially suitable for patients who prefer a gentler approach or feel
uneasy about traditional adjustments. Mobilizations help restore joint function, ease stiffness,
and support overall mobility-making them a versatile option for early-stage recovery or those
nervous about hearing their joints "pop."
