Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique
Elite-Level Expertise | Less Than 1% of Chiropractors Hold This Credential
Both Dr. Chris Perron and Dr. Hewad Azizi are credentialed at the highest level possible, ‘Advanced Proficiency’ for the Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique, a distinction held by less than one percent of chiropractors worldwide.
Dr. Chris Perron has been a national instructor for Activator Methods since 2000 and currently serves on the Clinical Advisory Board for Activator Methods, a select group of only a dozen of his peers.
Activator Methods is a gentle, precise, and scientifically backed technique that uses a specialized instrument to deliver low-force adjustments with maximum effectiveness. It is ideal for:
- Patients seeking a comfortable, targeted approach
- Those with sensitive conditions who prefer a gentle alternative
- Individuals looking for highly precise spinal alignment
With unmatched expertise, our team ensures that you receive the highest quality Activator care available anywhere.
Therapeutic Exercises
Many patients come to us after trying other treatments—only to find that their problems keep coming back. One of the biggest reasons? Their muscles have spent months or years compensating for subluxations, creating ingrained movement patterns that pull their joints back out of alignment.
Chiropractic adjustments restore proper alignment, but if the muscles aren’t retrained, they will often pull the body back into old patterns.
Targeted therapeutic exercises are a necessary part of long-term success. By identifying and correcting compensating muscle patterns, we:
- Reinforce proper joint positioning to prevent future misalignments.
- Break the cycle of recurring issues that patients often experience elsewhere.
- Ensure stability and long-term spinal health, rather than just temporary relief.
Many of our patients have sought care elsewhere but never had this missing piece addressed—which is why they finally achieve lasting results in our care.
Lifestyle Optimization
Identifying the Hidden Causes of Subluxations & Chronic Issues
Not all spinal misalignments come from obvious traumas like falls or car accidents. In fact, most subluxations develop over time due to small, daily habits that fly under the radar—making them even more dangerous because they lead to recurring and unresolved issues. Our approach goes beyond adjustments to identify these subtle lifestyle factors that may be contributing to your condition, including:
- Postural habits at work, home, and during sleep
- Repetitive motions that strain the spine over time
- Movement patterns & ergonomics that create imbalance
- Everyday stressors that impact spinal health
By addressing these hidden causes, we help you break the cycle of recurring issues, ensuring that your care isn’t just about temporary relief, but about true long-term stability and well-being.
Hidden Spinal Stress: How Subluxations Disrupt Your Health
A subluxation occurs when spinal bones shift out of alignment, interfering with nerve communication between your brain and body. This hidden spinal stress doesn’t just cause pain—it can contribute to a range of health issues, including:
- Stiffness, tension, and reduced mobility
- Chronic fatigue and poor sleep quality
- Digestive issues and immune imbalances
Your nervous system controls every function in your body, and when your spine is misaligned, your body can’t perform at its full potential. Chiropractic adjustments are the only natural way to correct subluxations and restore proper nerve flow—allowing your body to heal, function, and thrive.
If you’re experiencing unexplained pain, discomfort, or recurring health concerns, a chiropractic exam can determine if subluxations are affecting your well-being.
How come I’ve never heard of subluxations before?
How can subluxations be corrected?
How can I tell if I have subluxations?
While pain or stiffness can be warning signs, they aren’t the only indicators. Many subluxations go unnoticed until they begin affecting movement, energy levels, or overall well-being. A chiropractic evaluation is the best way to determine if hidden subluxations are present, allowing us to correct them before they lead to bigger issues.
Can subluxations clear up on their own?
Common Chiropractic Myths – Debunked!
Myth: Chiropractic isn’t based on science.
Truth: Chiropractic is backed by decades of research on the spine, nervous system, and musculoskeletal health. Studies show that chiropractic adjustments improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance nervous system function—all key factors in long-term health and wellness.
Myth: Once you start chiropractic care, you have to go forever.
Truth: You’re always in control of your care. While many patients choose to continue chiropractic care because they feel better, move better, and function at a higher level, there’s no obligation to keep going—just like you don’t have to keep exercising or eating healthy, but doing so helps maintain a better quality of life.
Myth: Chiropractic is only for back pain.
Truth: Chiropractic care optimizes whole-body function by improving nervous system health, reducing stress, enhancing mobility, and supporting overall wellness. Patients often report better sleep, improved digestion, reduced headaches, and higher energy levels after chiropractic adjustments.
Myth: Chiropractors aren’t real doctors.
Truth: Chiropractors complete extensive training in anatomy, physiology, neurology, and diagnostics—paralleling medical school in all areas of diagnosis and understanding of the body. Where chiropractic and medicine differ is not in the science, but in the approach to treatment.
Chiropractic is based on the principle—backed by science—that the body is designed to function and heal itself when given the right conditions. Chiropractors detect and correct subluxations that interfere with the nervous system, restoring the body’s ability to self-regulate and perform at its best.
Modern medicine, in contrast, operates on an override system—relying on external interventions like drugs or surgery to force a change in function. Chiropractic focuses on removing interference, not adding external control, allowing the body to express health as it was naturally designed to do.

For 10 years I made 40-mile round trips to my wonderful chiropractor in Washington DC. There was no other chiropractor who came close to helping chronic issues with my neck, back and hips. I had tried many chiropractors but ran away from them. It wasn’t easy to leave my DC doctor, who was genuinely happy because he cared for me and knew that I would choose wisely. You see, I break out with severe hives and can have difficulty breathing if an adjustment is too strong, or... read more

May 28, 2020Perron Chiropractic has been life changing for me! As someone who has lived with chronic head and neck pain for three years, seen over 38 doctors, and spent unbelievable amounts of money on pain relief for Occipital Neuralgia, cervical instability, and TMJ, I am blown away that I’ve found someone who is so helpful so close to my home. I wanted to find a chiropractor who uses an activator and was gentle yet effective, and Dr. Aziz and Dr. Perron are incredibly knowledgeable and effective. I... read more

June 30, 2022Dr. Perron is the best. I've seen several chiropractors throughout my life and just love this practice. The Activator method is the least intrusive chiropractic method and I will never go back to traditional care. I travel through 3 counties to see Dr Perron, that's how much I appreciate his care. Update: Dr Perron has added another Chiropractor to his practice. Both he and Dr Azizi are fabulous. I have only praise for them.

Let me start by saying that both Dr. Perron & Dr. Azizi are excellent at their practice of Chiropractic care. I was very debilitated from extensive neck surgery that left me physically unable to do much of anything & I was taking pain meds for a very long time. Through their dedication & expert guidance, they helped me to stop taking pain meds and to guide me through a rehabilitation plan that enabled me to get back to a more normal, pain free, and... read more

March 26, 2024Dr. Perron and Dr. A have really helped my chronic lower back issues that I have had over the years from being a Chiropractor myself. Their techniques are a little different than the ones I use in my office, but I plan on implementing them with my techniques for my patients. Highly recommend. Very pleasant staff that makes you very comfortable.
