The manual adjustment also make the TPH produce toggle-recoil like thrusts with high velocity motion energy shock waves.
The shock waves may be made by single or multiple adjustments against the vertebrae or extremities and will be transmitted as motion energy and absorbed in the treated tissue. The CNS will generally interpret the shock thrust as a trauma producing changes of the weight bearing function of the posture.
The “Trigger Point Hammer” technique has been developed by Dr. Jens Anders Kjersm, D.C., over the course of many years and is now been taught in the Nordic countries.
