Instrument-Assisted Adjusting
From the plain-English glossary.
Definition
Adjusting delivered with a small handheld spring or electronic instrument producing a precise, light impulse instead of a manual thrust.
Why it matters to you
A genuinely useful low-force option — for patients who prefer gentleness, and joints where manual thrust isn't appropriate.
