Kids entering the Whole Child Wellness program love getting their spinal adjustments. Not only do they think it is nice to see a doctor and not have to worry about getting shots, and it's cool to ride the adjusting table, but it makes them feel great too!
Dr. Flemming is trained and licensed to use the Activator Method of adjusting. The Activator Method uses a small, hand held tool, to reposition the spinal joints to their proper alignment. The Activator tool enables Dr. Flemming to control the exact amount of thrust and the direction of the adjustment, and minimizes any soreness or soft-tissue stretching typically associated with chiropractic treatments. There is no "twist and pop" with the Activator Method.
Children getting adjusted step onto a small platform that lowers them down on the adjusting table, allowing Dr. Flemming to see their standing posture. She asks them to move different areas of the body. A spinal joint that is functioning properly will accept this movement without any consequence. A spinal joint that is functioning improperly will respond negatively, tightening the surrounding muscles and altering the child's resting posture. This is a clear indication that objectively diagnoses an area that needs to be realigned. Dr. Flemming then uses her Activator tool to gently and effectively move the joint into a better functioning position.
Most kids respond very quickly to chiropractic adjustments and require only a few treatments before obtaining noticeable results. For information about why adjusting children with neurobehavioral disorders is so important, please log on to www.wholechildwellness.blogspot.com .
