Dr. Matt in Denver, CO

I am contrasting the mad rush to get to Sea-Tac after adjusting until 4pm on Friday with 3 hours to relax in the warm fresh air outside DIA.  So, it is 78 degrees with a little breeze (and old school 90’s Alternative rock playing at the bar in the background). Prior to this trip, I had heard that Colorado has some pretty crazy weather extremes. Yesterday, there was some massive hail, tornados the day before I got here, and now, it is pleasant and sunny!​​

​What a weekend! I am writing this, sitting outside at the Denver International Airport, yes, outside.  ​There is a really cool outdoor area just before you reach the security gates, with a lawn for pets, and they even have that beanbag game, Cornhole, available to play while you wait to catch your next flight! 

Ha!... nope, not in Seattle anymore!

​One of my hometown chiropractors (I have 3), Dr. Zach Pope, has been adjusting me with the Impulse IQ for a couple years now. Very generously, he offered to let me borrow his “spare” IQ to “try it before I buy it.” He was pretty sure that I would eventually get one of my own, and he was right, sort of...  I actually got 3... one for each adjusting room!  

​​As many of our patients know, I have had my own IQ’s since last September, and have been using them on several people as the exclusive adjusting technique. With many more patients, I have been using it in selected regions. Most patients report that the adjusting tool is very comfortable, and it is certainly lighter force than a manual or drop table adjustment. The way I see it, the more tools that I have in my tool belt, the better. This seminar helped tremendously in helping me understand the analysis and protocols that went into developing this technology. I'm excited to put what I learned into practice.

So, why was I in Denver this weekend instead of enjoying the weekend with my awesome wife and 4 boys? Well, I had a chance to attend an adjusting technique seminar with only 7 other chiropractors. This meant that I got a personalized instruction and even 2 adjustments in the 2 days!

​This instrument has evolved from the release of the Impulse in 2006 to the Impulse IQ more recently. This has included a significant jump in technology with the newer instrument. Without boring you with the details about the instrument itself, it has some pretty sophisticated tech inside that actually senses a problem area. In other words, it knows whether a bone or tendon/muscle is not moving properly, and, the even cooler part, it knows when to stop once it is corrected! This Impulse is intelligent, hence the name IQ.

​This has created a quantum leap for chiropractic adjustments. This seminar this weekend focused on the spine, but several other areas of the body were touched on. When the next “Extremities” module is given, I will be there. My favorite thing that I learned was the pretty neat protocol for the Pelvis/hip/low-back that I can’t wait to implement at McCann Family Chiropractic. Also, the upper neck/TMJ (jaw) protocol holds some exciting potential for things like headaches and vertigo. In fact, the whole protocol is remarkable, and the analysis can be used and corrected with some of the other techniques that I am already proficient in. All in all, I feel very fortunate to have attended the seminar this weekend. I am re-invigorated and armed with new information, and ready to help all of our awesome patients at MFC.  Give us a call today or check out our special offers to experience this awesome adjustment technique!
