Since we have the Pro Adjuster computerized adjusting in our Frederick office, we rarely use the activator technique. Every so often, we have a patient who is familiar with the activator (usually because another chiropractor used it on him/her) and wants to continue to be treated with the activator. We keep the activator around for these patients, but we have found that most people enjoy the Pro Adjuster computerized adjusting more and feel it works better.
