Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique (AMCT) is a gentle, low force technique that has been safely used for 35 years. Activator Method is one of the most widely-researched chiropractic techniques and the only instrument adjusting technique with clinical trials to supports its efficacy, evolving from 35 years of empirical study and 15 years of clinical research. Licensed professionals trained in the Activator Method is approximately 150,00 worldwide, making it the most widely used low-force chiropractic technique in the world.

Activator Methods doctors go through extensive training in addition to their undergraduate and doctorate degrees to learn specific procedures to detect spinal joint dysfunction, analyze leg length inequality, detect body mechanics problems, and test neurological reflexes. Doctors can achieve and maintain Proficiency or Advanced Proficiency Ratings in Activator Methods by attending weekend classes with tests in basic scan protocol, proficiency written and practical, and advanced proficiency written and practical.

An Activator instrument is used to deliver a very specific, low force adjustment. Delivery is 300-1000 times faster than a manual adjustment allowing the muscles little time to resist. Research has shown that the adjustment the body receives best is the quickest. Patients receiving activator treatments tend to heal at least 20% faster than those being treated through other chiropractic techniques. Due to the speed of the adjustment, patients stay in a neutral positon throughout the entire treatment instead of being configured into a pretzel like position. Patients enjoy the results and appreciate how easy it is to get adjusted.
