Find Relief with Activator in Westerville, OH

Are You Tired of Living with Pain or Discomfort?

If you prefer a subtle, controlled approach to chiropractic adjustments, Activator Technique is a method for spine and joint pain relief. Using a handheld instrument, this technique delivers gentle, precise adjustments perfect for those with arthritis, osteoporosis, or sensitivities to manual adjustments. At Hughes Health, our experienced chiropractic team is committed to helping you move better and feel your best. We’ll assess your specific needs and determine whether the Activator is right for you.

What Is Activator?

The Activator Technique utilizes a small, handheld device that delivers a controlled, low-force impulse directly to specific areas of the spine or joints. This scientifically designed method ensures precise adjustments, reducing discomfort and promoting healing. Unlike traditional manual adjustments, the Activator provides gentle, accurate care without sudden movements.

This approach is especially beneficial for individuals who prefer a lighter touch or have conditions that make manual adjustments challenging.

Who Can Benefit from Activator?

Activator Technique is ideal for:

Athletes seeking gentle, targeted adjustments to improve performance
Seniors or those with osteoporosis requiring low-impact care
Patients with chronic pain looking for non-invasive relief
Individuals with joint inflammation seeking a comfortable treatment option
Those with previous injuries who prefer a more controlled adjustment

How Does It Work?

Using the Activator device, our chiropractors provide precise, measured adjustments to restore proper alignment and mobility. This technique:

✅ Reduces pain and stiffness by correcting joint dysfunction

✅ Supports nervous system function by improving spinal alignment

✅ Alleviates muscle tension and promotes relaxation

✅ Enhances mobility and flexibility for better movement

✅ Accelerates healing by stimulating the body's natural repair processes

What Are the Top 5 Conditions Activator Treats Best?

What's the Difference Between Activator and Arthrostim?

While both are instrument-assisted, low-force chiropractic methods, they have distinct differences:

Activator delivers a single, precise impulse for highly targeted adjustments, making it ideal for sensitive areas or specific misalignments.
Arthrostim provides multiple impulses per second for a broader treatment area, often used for more complex musculoskeletal conditions.
Activator is often preferred for patients who need a gentler, more localized approach.
Arthrostim may be recommended for those seeking comprehensive adjustments across multiple regions.
