Get Straight About Chiropractic
While we very much believe in preventative care, we also understand that a patient is unlikely to seek medical help unless a specific condition or symptom is present. Whether our patients are here for preventative measures or because of an acute condition, the whole health analysis and treatment are necessary to keep all components of the body working harmoniously.
The whole health analysis and treatment begins with a full consultation and examination. Dr. Frisina has remarkable diagnostic skills, helping her to find the root of most symptoms or trouble areas. The initial examination may include x-rays depending upon the nature of the symptoms and other exam findings. In any case, we will find what the true cause of the ailment is, allowing us to proceed safely with treatment.

Activator
Dr. Frisina is the only Advanced Certified Activator Methods practitioner in Springfield, IL. The Activator Method is one of the most widely researched chiropractic techniques and the only instrument adjusting technique with clinical trials to support its efficacy. It is gentle, low-force approach to chiropractic care. The technique has been used safely on patients of all ages since the late 1960’s, bringing relief to people with a variety of health concerns.
The technique uses specific protocols to detect spinal joint dysfunction, analyze leg length inequality, identify issues with body mechanics and test neurological reflexes. By the analysis results the Activator doctor can initiate the process of restoring spinal balance in the patient, gently and effectively. The Activator instrument provides a controlled, precise, fast thrust and accurate adjustment that is comfortable for the patient. In fact, most of our patients prefer it to other chiropractic techniques of “popping” and “cracking” of the bones. There is no twisting of the spine either, so our patients normally lay down, in a relaxed state for their treatment.
Our Wellness Center is pleased to bring you the benefits of Activator Method Chiropractic Technique through an Advanced Rated Doctor. By restoring spinal balance, chiropractor care aids the body in healing itself. As your partner in health care, we are committed to your good health and wellness.
