Impulse Adjusting Technique

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

We use a small hand-held adjusting instrument called the Impulse. This instrument offers many advantages for our practice members.

 

Precision

By its very nature, we can provide an ideal angle and direction to the energy we apply to your spine. Unlike adjustments performed by hand, this instrument can make your adjustments more accurate. Besides being more precise, practice members 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, practice members 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.

Frequency

When the trigger 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 practice members comments we receive.

Dr. Bob Asks some important questions of interest to Louisville residents - Chiropractor Louisville Dr. Bob Asks...

Why are some people allergic to pollen and others aren't?
It's not the pollen. Chiropractors know that if it were, everyone would be allergic to pollen, nuts and pet dander. But that's not the case. It's the person, not the pollen! If you live in Louisville and your stress levels are high, then each year the grass, the trees or the weeds put your nervous system over the top. Many report that chiropractic care helps reduce the frequency and severity of their allergic response.
What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Louisville folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
