With local chiropractor, Dr Christa Campbell, in the area of Stamford, Connecticut adhering to a low force adjusting method, also known as the Activator Method, which shows substantial benefits for neck pain treatment, afflicted residents may now consider this alternate, gentle way to resolve what can be a constant, taxing health problem.
Considering the human neck is tasked with supporting the equivalent to a bowling ball in head weight for most of the day while dealing with undue stress (incorrect work posture, emotional strain and even occasional physical trauma), it is evident why this particular type of discomfort is so prevalent. And yet, the most common approach is to address the painful symptoms with drugs and topical applications, rather than resolve the underlying cause, which can be achieved through a gentle chiropractic adjustment.
This low-force method that does not involve any twisting or cracked was developed by Activator Methods International Ltd., which has been providing care, resources and treatment since 1967. The company focuses on constant clinical research to develop both the techniques and associated adjusting instrument. Summarily, the cornerstone of the treatment is to first scan and identify with precision which points in the spinal cord are under problematic pressure, and then use this pinpointed information to relief the blockages via a very precise adjustment that does not involve any twists or cracks.
The treatment has been receiving steady recognition from its professional field, achieving even the "Honor Award" from the World Federation of Chiropractic, being the only method in the field to have received a grant from the National Institutes of Health (U.S. based) and is even recognized and covered by Medicare. The number of licensed professionals worldwide rests at about 150,000, making this the most widely used low-impact system.
Most neck pain situations are caused by vertebral subluxations, when the incorrect positioning of a vertebra causes pressure on the related joints and compromises the integrity of the nervous system. A gentle realignment is capable of restoring the correct flow of information between the brain and the body, with overarching health benefits beyond the scope of localized pain and discomfort.
More than intervening after a problem is revealed, this successful method is safe and non-invasive enough to take place as a preventative intervention. Much like regular optometry and dental checkups are considered in health-care planning to detect early conditions, regular chiropractic care may also prove essential in resetting the spine's essential balance to improve its functioning and prevent unnecessary pain and degeneration. Individuals with chronic conditions or those that exert a lot of posture strain during their professional activities are the ones to benefit the most from successive care, lessening the frequency and severity of their symptoms.
This low impact method is not only effective in itself, but broadens the age spectrum of patients that can benefit from this type of treatment, from newborns to seniors, while being favored by heavy-muscled individuals like athletes due to its simultaneously precise nature. This approach might just be the needed reassurance for lower Fairfield County residents who, in spite of suffering from neck pain and spinal-cord related discomfort, do not seek help from chiropractors, fearing the "twists and cracks" often featured in the movies with comical exaggeration. Rest assured, this will not happen with an Activator adjustment.
