Impulse Adjusting Technique

The impulse adjusting instrument is highly specific and provides a comfortable yet safe, gentle and effective adjustment.

We use a small hand-held adjusting instrument called the Impulse. Dr. Carradine is certified in Impulse Instrument Adjusting through Neuromechanical Innovations. This instrument offers many advantages for our patients.

 

Precision

By its very nature, we can provide an ideal angle and direction to the energy we apply to your spine or extremities. Unlike adjustments performed by hand, this instrument can make your adjustments more accurate. Besides being more precise, patients often remark they find this approach more pleasant.

Speed

When compared with adjustments delivered by hand, an Impulse adjustment is fast. Very fast! Because the thrust is many times faster than is possible by hand, patients are less inclined to “brace” themselves and tense up. This results in more energy actually reaching the vertebrae, with considerably less force needed. In other words, it works better.

The handheld instrument directs the needed energy at the proper angle.
Frequency

When the trigger is pulled and held, the Impulse Instrument enters the multiple pulse mode, thrusting 12 times in a row during the course of 2 seconds. Turns out this frequency (6 Hz) is very special. It resonates with the frequency of your body, creating optimal results.

We use the Impulse instrument because of the excellent results it produces and the positive patients comments we receive.

Dr. Carradine Asks some important questions of interest to Boardman residents - Chiropractor Boardman Dr. Carradine Asks...

Where do most Boardman residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Boardman newborn.
What's a side effect?
It may sound like a bonus; something extra, but chiropractors know it should more accurately called an "unintended effect," and "unwanted effect" or in some cases an "adverse effect." A pill can't come close to matching your body's ability to create and deliver the essential compounds it needs. That's when it's important to make sure your nervous system is working correctly—the purpose of chiropractic care!
