The atlas orthogonal precision instrument was designed to deliver a precise chiropractic adjustment based on the specific misalignment findings from your x-rays, Technically, the instrument delivers a percussion sound wave through a metal stylus with a measured force of approximately 3.5 pounds of pressure.
The percussion head & stylus

The stylus which lightly touches the patient then applies a portion of the sound wave to the Atlas (1st cervical vertebra) in order to make the appropriate adjustment. The instrument allows the doctor to adjust the Atlas misalignment with a very high degree of precision while applying minimal physical pressure. This unique feature eliminates patient discomfort during treatment.

Following the initial treatment, the doctor confirms the subluxation correction through
x-ray analysis.
