Dr. Tiegs Asks some important questions of interest to Boise residents - Chiropractor Boise Dr. Tiegs Asks...

What's the difference between maintenance, prevention and wellness?
Maintenance chiropractic care is an attempt to keep a dynamic, ever-changing and adapting organism (you) in a static relationship with your environment. Preventive chiropractic care is mostly about early detection. Wellness chiropractic care is an attempt to optimize our health and be all that you were designed to be.
Why do so many drugs require a prescription?
Because they can be dangerous? I chose a chiropractic career specifically because it avoids artificial means of pain relief. Our Boise chiropractic practice attracts health-conscious families that prefer a safe and natural solution. Ready to get started? Call our office today.

Impulse Adjusting Technique

The handheld instrument directs the needed energy at the proper angle.

We use a small hand-held adjusting instrument called the Impulse. This instrument offers many advantages for our patients.

 

Precision

By its very nature, we can provide an ideal angle and direction to the energy we apply to your spine. Unlike adjustments performed by hand, this instrument can make your adjustments more accurate. Besides being more precise, patients often remark they find this approach more pleasant.

Speed

When compared with adjustments delivered by hand, an Impulse adjustment is fast. Very fast! Because the thrust is many times faster than is possible by hand, patients are less inclined to “brace” themselves and tense up. This results in more energy actually reaching the vertebrae, with considerably less force needed. In other words, it works better.

Frequency

When the trigger pulled and held, the Impulse Instrument enters the multiple pulse mode, thrusting 12 times in a row during the course of 2 seconds. Turns out this frequency (6 Hz) is very special. It resonates with the frequency of your body, creating optimal results.

We use the Impulse instrument because of the excellent results it produces and the positive patients comments we receive.
