What is ArthroStim?
ArthroStim is a small handheld instrument chiropractors use to give very quick, gentle taps to a joint or soft tissue. Each tap is precise and controlled, so it can be easier on the body than a manual thrust. Chiropractors use it to help restore normal joint movement, reduce stiffness, and support the body’s natural healing.
What to expect during treatment
Treatment with the ArthroStim is usually quick and comfortable. You may feel a series of light tapping sensations—sometimes you’ll hear tiny clicks, sometimes nothing at all. Most people experience little or no pain during the session, though mild soreness can happen afterward. Your chiropractor will explain the plan, check how you respond, and often combine ArthroStim with stretches, exercises, or other therapies for best results.
