The Arthrostim instrument delivers 12-14 incremental thrusts per second without activating undesirable pain receptors.  This allows Dr. Beachy to administer an extremely comfortable, and highly effective adjustment with less force than manual adjustments require.  This reduces the amount of force needed to achieve maximum effectiveness.  Individuals who may especially benefit from the use of the arthrostim include:

1.  Infants and young children

2.  Individuals in acute pain

3.  Particularily sensitive patients

4.  Individuals who dislike being "cracked"

5.  Elderly patients
