ACTIVATOR METHODS, INTERNATIONAL®
CORPORATE PROFILE
Activator Methods International, Ltd. ® (AMI), celebrating its 50th
anniversary in 2017, has been providing chiropractic care, resources and training worldwide since 1967.
Founded on the principles of clinical research, AMI’s major contribution to chiropractic care is discovery and development of the Activator Method Chiropractic Technique and the associated Activator Adjusting Instrument.
Founder and Chairman Arlan W. Fuhr D.C. has more than five decades of experience in clinical research and private practice. He has been honored by the profession numerous times, including the industry’s prestigious World Federation of Chiropractic “Honour Award.”
AMI has published clinical and scientific peer-reviewed papers beyond that of most chiropractic analytical treatment procedures. AMI’s mechanical force, manually assisted adjusting
instruments are recognized and covered by Medicare. Globally, tens of thousands of licensed professionals are trained in the Activator Method, making it the most widely used low-force chiropractic technique in the world.
Education, training and advancement of the chiropractic profession are at the heart of Activator’s mission. Each year, AMI offers more
than 75 technique seminars around the world to provide instruction and certification opportunities. Additionally, AMI provides online training in the Basic Scan Protocol, the cornerstone of the Activator Method, through Activator Online (www.activatoronline.com). Through these seminars, doctors can achieve and maintain Proficiency or Advanced Proficiency Ratings and become part of the exclusive, web-based Referral Service of Proficiency Rated Doctors.
Additionally, students are trained in the Activator Method of instrument adjusting through 14 university systems in the United States and in 9 international schools, colleges and universities. First published by Mosby/Elsevier in 1997, the textbook “The Activator Method,” is now in its second edition and remains the definitive work on this controlled, low-force adjusting system.
Activator has been the subject of 23 clinical trials, and is the only instrument and instrument technique to have been the subject of clinical trials. More than 150 abstracts and manuscripts on the Activator Method have been published with the support of the National Institute of Chiropractic Research. Additional research efforts have been funded by the National Institutes of Health, as well as universities in the United States and internationally. The resulting abstracts and manuscripts have been a valuable tool to support the practitioner’s treatment of problems of the spine.
