Diversified Chiropractic and Activator Technique
At River Oaks Chiropractic & Body Works, we offer a variety of techniques. Diversified Chiropractic is among the oldest and most frequently used chiropractic techniques. According to Spine-Health, diversified technique or DCT involves the application of “a short (low-amplitude), quick (high-velocity) thrust over restricted joints (one at a time) with the goal of restoring normal range of motion in the joint.”
Activator Technique:
This is joint mobilization by instrument. The technique is a “non-force technique”. The joints and soft tissues are manipulated by the use of a small machine, which delivers very small impacts on the joints and muscle areas. This is a non-invasive technique used in situations where the patient requires a very gentle thrust to achieve the required results, or diversified manipulation is contraindicated. We offer both of these popular techniques.
