Activator Methods and Flexion Distraction

[su_spoiler title=”About Chiropractic Medicine” style=”fancy”]

Chiropractors practise a drug-free, manual approach to health care that includes patient assessment, diagnosis and treatment. In particular, chiropractors assess patients for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, extremity joints, and their effect on the nervous system. Chiropractic is a regulated health profession recognized by statute in all Canadian provinces and American states.

Chiropractic Medicine, and “evidence based Chiropractic care” is known for acute management of sports, work and auto injuries. However, this approach limits the benefits of this therapeutic system to acute cases only, so why stop there ?

Bodywork, which includes Chiropractic, Massage therapy, Physiotherapy and Osteopathy should all be integrated to a wellness model, by optimizing one’s biomechanics:  addressing muscle & bone strength, joint function, and flexibility we can enhance health, and overall wellness.

Dr. Levy uses state of the art Hill Flexion Distraction Table (see below) in addition to the original Activator Classic (Generation 1), Activator II, and the most recent Activator IV as his adjusting instruments.

Dr. Levy strongly believe that risk of any procedure should always be kept to a minimum, an equation of risk versus benefit is applied to all form of care, and Chiropractic while is extremely safe is not an exception.

Benefits of Chiropractic Medicine

Chiropractic Medicine improves function by restoring normal biomechanics to our Musculoskeletal system

Chiropractic Medicine, is a valuable tool that supports wellness, performance and function, by eliminating “fixated” or “locked” or “hypomobile” spinal segments, and/or joint extremities, we allow for better joints biomechanics, therefore, improved ranges of motion, which leads to improved flexibility and strength, and ultimately to overall wellness.

Chiropractic Care ==> Optimal Biomechanics ==> Optimal Function

In acute painful conditions, Chiropractic may help with the following:

• Low back pain
• Neck Pain (NO forced rotary manipulation performed in our clinic.)
• Cervicogenic headaches
• Scoliosis
• Sports Injuries
• Work related injuries
• Motor Vehicle Accidents
• Herniated Disc
