Benefits of using the ArthroStim Instrument
As technology advances, your chiropractor might discover new ways to provide treatment to his/her patients. As you can imagine, your doctor sees many different types of people of all shapes and sizes every day, each with different sensitivity levels and pain thresholds. With such a wide variety of patient needs, sometimes the manual adjustment a chiropractor can provide might not be as effective or efficient, which his why your doctor might use a tool like the ArthroStim Instrument to enhance their treatment sessions.
What is ArthroStim?
The ArthroStim Instrument is a handheld machine that aids your chiropractor in performing adjustments. This powerful tool delivers 12-14 incremental thrust per second, making it much stronger and faster than a typical single thrust administered by a chiropractor. By dividing the energy of single thrust into rapid successive inputs, the ArthroStim Instrument modulates the force your doctor applies in adjusting, but in a much more comfortable and effective manner.
How does the ArthroStim Instrument work?
In order to understand how an ArthroStim Instrument works, you have to understand how the chiropractic adjustment works. A chiropractic adjustment produces precise movements which stimulate “neural receptors” in an injured/affected area. These receptors will the produce nerve impulses which transmit important information to the brain. The brain will process this information and use it to update its awareness about the condition of an area. Once the brain evaluates the changes prompted by the adjustment, it can begin sending out self-correcting commands to the muscular system, and other systems, to bring about healing within your body.
The ArthroStim is just another way to administer these adjustments, but it is faster, more comfortable, and efficient due to its controlled repetitive input. This input produces a “snowballing” effect on neural receptors and allows it to transmit more information to the brain with less effort, pain, and force.

Out of the largest human population research study in chiropractic history comes the Integrator™.
The Integrator™ is the only chiropractic adjusting instrument that was developed out of randomized clinical trial, blinded and with placebo control. The study was designed by Robert Duncan, Ph. D., biostatistician, at the University of Miami, School of Medicine, together with the Holder Research Institute and funded in part by a grant from the Florida Chiropractic Society. Years of development, testing, and design went into creating an instrument that would deliver that 3rd dimensional dynamic that adjusting by hand embraced but that no other instrument in chiropractic delivered.
“TORQUE” and “RECOIL”.
THE INTEGRATOR reproduces the entire thrust and movement components of TOGGLE and RECOIL, the classic Chiropractic Method of adjusting by hand at a speed of 1/10,000th of a second. No other features are built into the Integrator; however, the pre-cocking/tip sensitive automatic release mechanism makes the Integrator the first and only chiropractic adjusting instrument capable of totally true inter-professional reproducibility.
This instrument, also known as the Torque Adjustor™ is unlike other hand held instruments. The Integrator has true force adjustment as well as choice of three tip sizes, shapes, and density characteristics to allow for the chiropractor the greatest outcome in correcting almost any subluxation that can present itself.
The Integrator™ is a legally marketed device for the adjustment of the Vertebral Subluxation; it is only available to licensed Doctors of Chiropractic.

Thanks to new technology, we can now PROVE that Chiropractic helps the body’s nervous system restore natural balance and healthier function.
It is a daily challenge and it affects all aspects of our daily lives, but what do we really know about stress?
The most important aspect of stress is the body’s response to a stressor. Your stress response is controlled by your nervous system. Let’s say you are involved in a near miss automobile accident. Your stress response would include: Seating, goose bumps, increased respiration, pupil dilation, increased hart rate, elevated blood pressure, increased adrenalin secretion, increased blood delivery to the muscles, decreased blood delivery to the gut, decreased hand temperature and heightened brain activity.
All of these responses are normal during a life-threatening event, and are very demanding on the body. However, if this highly aroused state is inappropriately activated and/or remains in effect for long periods of time, not allowing the body to return to a normal relaxed state, it creates severe damage to the normal functions of the body.
Therefore, the real challenge of the stress response is the ability of your nervous system to regulate the response appropriately. When the nervous system loses the ability to regulate this system, our long-term health is at risk.
The Relationship Between the Stress Response, Neurologically Based Chiropractic and Brain Training
The Neurologically Based Chiropractic adjustment stimulates a complex nervous system response. It interrupts and breaks old neural pathways that have been responsible for a NEGATIVE stress response. Brain Training including neurofeedback and biofeedback create new neural pathways which are responsible for a POSITIVE stress response. This brings the body’s physiology back in balance. Todays technology with the NeuroInfiniti now offers the possibility for nervous system change. We can clearly demonstrate the true benefit of the Neurologically Based Chiropractic care and Brain Training in helping the body’s nervous system restore natural balance and healthier function.
So what does the SRE tell us?
The NeuroInfiniti Stress Response Evaluation is now providing reproducible data showing that Neurologically Based Chiropractic care improves the neurological regulation of the stress response. Most people are under the misconception that Chiropractors simply move bones and joints, when in fact, the greatest benefit of Chiropractic adjustment is the ability to re-establish the appropriate regulation of the body through enhanced neurological control of all of the body’s systems, including the stress response! Our office is now using the NeuroInfiniti Stress Response Evaluation to ensure that you and your loved ones are getting the most of your care and the most out of LIFE! What are you waiting for?
