At Arbor Vitae Chiropractic in Bentonville, Dr. Tom Niemela specializes in neurologically-based chiropractic care and uses the Torque Release Technique to deliver chiropractic adjustments. This technique is different than more traditional manual thrust techniques in that spinal adjustments are delivered in a gentle, safe method using just the right amount of force while the spine is in a relaxed position. When the spine is in proper alignment, the body is then able to function optimally as well as utilize its unique healing properties to ease pain and heal the body.
The Integrator
The Torque Release Technique (TRT) uses a unique tool called the Integrator to deliver the necessary force required to bring the spine back into alignment. The Integrator is a handheld tool that uses torque and release to deliver pressure to the spine. It is an innovative, effective, and science-based tool that focuses on improving the central nervous system through the use of low force thrust on the spine. This unique tool is able to provide three-dimensional, specific, and accurate adjustments. It is a non-invasive, no-pain technique that doesn’t use the traditional methods of cracking and popping to bring the spine back into alignment. With this tool, Bentonville chiropractor Dr. Tom Niemela can get right to the source of nerve interference for improved health and overall quality of life.
What to Expect
When you schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Niemela of Arbor Vitae Chiropractic, he will first examine your spine to locate spinal misalignments. Once Dr. Tom has located the exact locations of vertebrae that are twisted, turned, or out of place, he will use the unique integrator tool to remove nerve interference that impacts the central nervous system’s function. The pre-cocked integrator tool uses only six pounds of pressure. When this pressure is released at 1/10,000 of a second, the tool will torque, or turn slightly to break up neurological patterns that cause spinal misalignments. The integrator tool sends an impulse into the nerves and muscles surrounding the spine, causing them to relax and fall back into place. It is the quickness of the tool combined with the torque and recoil that are key to the Torque Release Technique.
How Does This Impact Overall Health?
Nerve interference impacts how the brain communicates with the rest of the body. Without proper communication, the body’s systems are thrown into chaos, leading to all sorts of issues from back or neck pain to headaches, infertility, chronic pain, along with a myriad of other health conditions. Using TRT, Dr. Tom is able to remove nerve interference so the brain and body can function in conjunction once again, improving overall health and wellness.
