Testimonials
I started seeing Dr. Nelsen after I was involved in an automobile accident. I had tried exercise therapy and frequently took pain medication, but my low back, neck, and shoulder wouldn’t give in. Dr. Nelsen started me on a plan with adjustments and Spinal Decompression. Now I feel like I am able to truly function, and standing, sitting, and walking do not bother me anymore. I’ve learned to listen to my body and it always knows when it’s time for my maintenance visit. Dr. Nelsen and his staff are all very caring. They make every visit seem pleasant and cheerful. Thanks for all your help!

A few years ago I had a fall that resulted in severe low back and hip pain. I had always enjoyed walking for exercise; however, due to this accident I was no longer able to walk a short distance without pain, much less walk for exercise. I noticed that my gait had shortened, and my balance was off because I was constantly favoring my good side. The pain bothered me so much that I even had difficulty sleeping. All of that has changed since I started letting Dr. Nelsen treat my condition. I am now back to walking everyday, and get some of the best night’s rest I’ve ever had. I’ve also noticed an increase in my range of motion and flexibility that I never dreamed I’d be able to regain. Dr. Nelsen and his compassionate staff have helped me return to my normal activities pain free!

The Activator Method
 
 

The Activator Method Chiropractic Technique is a gentle, low-force approach to chiropractic care. The technique has been used safely on patients of all ages since the late 1960s, bringing relief to people with a variety of health concerns.

Incorporating the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological and chiropractic examinations, this unique system of administering spinal adjustments using research-based analysis and the Activator Adjusting Instrument can help restore spinal balance safely and comfortably.

Because of its effectiveness and gentle nature, the Activator Method has grown to become the world’s most widely-used instrument chiropractic technique.
 
 
How It Works
 
 
Restoring spinal balance safely and successfully has been the driving force behind the Activator Method Chiropractic Technique.

The technique utilizes specific protocols to detect spinal joint dysfunction, analyze leg length inequality, identify issues with body mechanics, and test neurological reflexes. By analyzing results of these examinations, an Activator doctor can initiate the process of restoring spinal balance in the patient, gently and effectively.

The Activator Adjusting Instrument is the tool more doctors choose to deliver low-force chiropractic adjustments. This unique hand-held instrument has been studied extensively with results published in hundreds of peer-reviewed research papers, and was designed to give patients a specific and gentle adjustment.

The Activator provides a controlled, fast thrust that is comfortable for the patient.  In fact, adjustments
with the Activator are so quick and measured, the body’s muscles are less likely to resist, allowing
for a more precise and accurate adjustment.
