The Arthrostim Instrument and KST

What is that instrument you are using?

In this office we have taken special training in the use of the ArthroStim hand held adjusting device. It was designed to introduce a specific amount of force to the body to correct subluxations.

A subluxation is a distortion in your body/nervous system that interferes with your flow of energy and information. Subluxations interfere with internal communications and adversely affect body function. KST quickly locates subluxations and releases them using this instrument, permitting your body/mind to function at a higher level of efficiency, harmony, communication and health.

The Arthrostim & KST

The instrument essentially becomes and extension of the hand and using it permits us to accomplish better corrections (adjustments) in a shorter period of time. The Arthrostim introduces a gentle force into your body at 12 - 14 "taps" per second. This speed is technically referred to as the somato-motor rhythm beta rate that is associated with relaxation of the nervous system. Twelve to fourteen cycles per second is also considered a harmonic of what is referred to as the Schumann frequency. It helps to affect the positive changes in the body.

The Different Sleeves We Use

We use different sized sleeves in order to adjust or correct different parts of the body. Depending on what we are trying to adjust we will utilize the bare stylus for cranial bones and upper segments of the cervical spine (neck) and some soft tissue elements such as vertebral discs.

For larger bones such as the hips, arms, ribs, shoulders, pubic bones and legs, we'll use the larger, flat nosed sleeves.

Parts of your hands require using the ball sleeve and your spine will be adjusted using one of the two, forked sleeves.

Individualized Care

The goal of KST is to give you individualized care tailored to your specific lifestyle and needs. Using the ArthroStim and KST, we can help you accomplish your goal.

No More Poking and Cracking

The ability to quickly discover where your problem is with KST, combined with the extremely gentle power of the ArthroStim adjusting instrument, we can find and correct the specific pattern of subluxation that has plagued you perhaps, for years. This technique is so gentle that it is welcomed by the elderly and children alike. To them, it just tickles! ArthroStim® Instrument produces TWELVE thrusts a second. This frequency, known as the low beta somatomotor rhythm, is two to three time

THE DIFFERENT s the rate of other multiple thrust instruments. This outstanding rapidity supersaturates the target area with specific adjustive energy/ forces. The energy continues to ripple through the joint to surrounding fringe tissues. This releases secondary trigger points and sites of muscular spasm, providing the relief and corrections that doctors want. Patients typically notice a positive difference with the first treatment.
