The Insight Subluxation Station - Measuring the Nervous System

No items found.
March 11, 2023

The Insight Subluxation Station is a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool that our office uses to detect and evaluate subluxations, or misalignments of the spine that can interfere with the normal function of the nervous system. The Insight Subluxation Station uses advanced technology to provide our office with objective data about a patient's nervous system function, allowing our doctors to develop a personalized care plan to promote optimal health and well-being.

The Insight Subluxation Station uses three different technologies to assess nervous system function:

  1. Thermography: This technology measures temperature differences on the skin surface, which can indicate areas of inflammation and nerve irritation. Infrared sensors are used to detect these temperature differences, which are then displayed on an IPAD screen.
  2. Surface Electromyography (sEMG): This technology measures the electrical activity of muscles to determine whether they are functioning properly. sEMG can detect muscle imbalances and areas of muscle tension that may be contributing to nervous system dysfunction.
  3. Heart Rate Variability (HRV): This technology measures the variability in time between each heart beat to determine the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. HRV can be an indicator of overall nervous system function. It also helps us measure how well the patient's nervous system is adapting to their overall stress load.
Insight Subluxation Station

The Insight Subluxation Station provides chiropractors with objective data about a patient's nervous system function, allowing them to develop a personalized treatment plan to promote optimal health and well-being. By measuring temperature differences, muscle activity, and heart rate variability, the Insight Subluxation Station can identify areas of nerve irritation and dysfunction that may be contributing to a patient's health problems. We periodically reevaluate the nervous system by performing all 3 scans again.

We use the information gathered from the Insight Subluxation Station to develop a customized care plan for each patient. This may include chiropractic adjustments to realign the spine and restore normal nerve function, as well as lifestyle changes such as exercise, nutrition, and stress management to promote overall health and well-being.

The Insight Subluxation Station is a safe and non-invasive diagnostic tool that can provide valuable information about a patient's nervous system function.

In conclusion, this technology is a valuable diagnostic tool is something our office uses to assess nervous system function and develop personalized care plans for our patients. By providing objective data about a patient's nervous system function, the Insight Subluxation Station can help our doctors identify areas of nerve irritation and dysfunction, and develop effective treatment strategies to promote optimal health and well-being.

Patient Stories: Discover Reviews by Satisfied Chiropractic Patients

Hear what our patients have to say about their experience at Pinnacle.

Please if you are concern about your child’s overall well-being please go to Pinnacle Chiropractor, you won’t regret it, they have changed our lives.
We are so thankful with Dr. Matt, Dr. Jordan and all the staff. My son is a completely different kid. We contacted Dr. Matt because my son was getting sick all the time (he had the flu twice, strep, pneumonia, and tonsilitis this year) had a really hard time sleeping and was a picky eater. His pediatrician said that he would grow out of it, just to give him time, but I felt this was not enough. I wanted my son to thrive, to be a happy, healthy kid. So I talked to my pediatrician about Dr. Matt and she said to go a head and try it, that she goes to a chiropractor as well and that it has helped her a lot. So we made the decision to go, we paid for the whole treatment (people may say is “expensive”, but it is totally worth it, I would do it all over again) and the results are just amazing. My son is happier than ever, he is sleeping better, his appetite has increased, and the most important part he is healthy. He has gotten a cold here and there but he is fighting it off so much quicker and no high fevers like he used to get.
I’ve now become a patient of theirs too, and I hope to start my other two children there as well
My 10 month old has been delayed on her gross motor skills. At her 6 month checkup, her pediatrician recommended she get evaluated for PT. In her case, I felt like she needed more that just PT to get caught up. I’ve heard so many people speak highly of chiropractic care for kids, I thought we’d give it a try. I can’t remember how I came across Pinnacle (might have been on Instagram because they have a lot of helpful posts). But anyway, I called and setup the first couple appointments for intake and scans. The entire staff is super friendly. Dr. Matt listened very well to what was going on with my daughter and we came up with 3 goals for her to hopefully meet with 9 weeks of adjustments (2x/week). The afternoon after her 2nd adjustment, she literally reached 2 of her goals. I almost couldn’t believe it. I realize it could have just been a coincidence but it’s just too close to happening right after the adjustments for me to assume that. She’s had about 10 adjustments total now, and she is catching up on other gross motor skills. Because she is a baby, her adjustments are quite gentle. There’s no cracking or popping involved. I’ve now become a patient of theirs too, and I hope to start my other two children there as well!
