What is Koren Specific Technique?
Koren Specific Technique (KST) is a gentle, specific chiropractic technique developed by Dr. Tedd Koren. It uses a combination of precise analysis and the ArthroStim adjusting instrument to locate and correct subluxations (areas of nerve interference) throughout the body. KST can find and address subluxations that other methods may miss.
What makes KST unique is its ability to analyze and adjust the body in any position -- standing, sitting, or lying down -- allowing Dr. John to address problems in the posture and position where they actually occur. This makes corrections more accurate and longer-lasting.
Why Choose KST?
Precise Corrections
The ArthroStim delivers rapid, gentle impulses to precisely correct subluxations that other methods may miss, ensuring thorough and effective care.
Comfortable for All Ages
From infants to seniors, KST is gentle enough for anyone. No twisting, popping, or cracking -- just precise, comfortable corrections.
Full-Body Assessment
KST can address subluxations anywhere in the body, including areas that are difficult to reach with traditional manual techniques.
How the ArthroStim Works
The ArthroStim is a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers rapid, gentle impulses at a controlled force. It produces 12 to 14 gentle "taps" per second, which is fast enough to stimulate the nervous system without engaging the body's protective muscle guarding response. This means corrections are more comfortable and more effective.
Unlike manual adjustments that rely on a single forceful thrust, the ArthroStim's repetitive impulses gently encourage the joints and tissues to move into proper alignment. The force used is so gentle that patients of all ages -- from newborns to elderly patients -- can be comfortably adjusted.
No Twisting, Popping, or Cracking
Many people are hesitant about chiropractic care because they are uncomfortable with the idea of manual adjustments that produce popping or cracking sounds. With KST, there is no twisting of the body, no sudden thrusts, and no popping or cracking. The ArthroStim delivers precise corrections that are comfortable and gentle.
Conditions KST Can Help With
Because KST addresses the nervous system at a fundamental level, patients with a wide variety of conditions have found relief and improved function through this technique.
Pain & Discomfort
Back pain, neck pain, headaches, migraines, joint pain, sciatica, and other musculoskeletal conditions respond well to precise KST corrections.
Nervous System Function
Digestive issues, sleep problems, stress, anxiety, and general nervous system dysfunction can improve when subluxations are corrected and nerve flow is restored.
