Activator:

This is a low force technique that uses a leg length differential, positional posture, and tissue changes to direct patients' needs. The chiropractor uses a handheld instrument called an activator to administer the adjustment. The activator is a spring-loaded device that administers a rapid force in a small surface area to correct subluxation. This is one of the gentlest adjustment techniques practiced.
