1. Do the
Insight Millennium tests hurt?
Absolutely not.
The tests do not utilize any needles, electrical shock, or heat
whatsoever. They are receiving important information
from
your Central Nervous System.
2. Why does
the chiropractor administer these tests?
Our purpose for administering these tests is to detect and
pinpoint abnormal function in the spine which cannot be seen on
X-ray. Abnormal spinal function causes abnormal Nervous System
disturbance. The three standard tests will measure: 1) SEMG - the
amount of electrical current in the muscles, 2) Thermography - skin
temperature along the spine, and 3) Inclinometry
- range of movement of the spine.
3. Why is it
important to monitor the results?
Your chiropractor wants the best results for patients like yourself.
He/she can easily monitor your changes through periodic progress
exams. It has been proven that a very slight amount of pressure (the
weight of a dime!)* can disturb the communication of the Nervous
System whether or not symptoms are
present. How can the chiropractor measure the results after
removing pressure? The advanced technology of the Insight
Millennium. This is vitally necessary to monitor how the spine is
working. It is key to improving your health and well-being.
4. How will this test benefit me?
For years, a major concern of the public has been, "Why do I have to keep
coming back when I'm pain-free?"
or "How do I know if 1m getting the
proper amount of adjustments?" Now you are able to
actually see the changes, and it will be easier to understand the
amount and type of care you are receiving. Because of this
technology, your chiropractor can provide a "tailormade" program to
meet your specific health needs.
