Sigma ProAdjuster
Dr. Wolstenholme was interviewed by Cat Viglienzoni of WCAX Channel 3 News for a piece about the Sigma ProAdjuster.
It aired on the evening news on September 26, 2018.

Sigma ProAdjuster
The SIGMA ProAdjuster measures the stiffness of the tissue or joint by applying a light mechanical force in the form of an instantaneous shock wave and oscillating frequency; a signal is then reflected back to the piezoelectric sensor, which measures these reflective statistics, sending it to the computer for interpretation, all before the muscle can respond. The process occurs so fast that it reduces the normal defense mechanism or guarding response, caused by typical palpation.
The SIGMA ProAdjuster uses the same sensing technology that the aviation industry and engineers have used in order to test metal fatigue in aircraft and bridge spans. The Doctor uses this highly sophisticated technology to analyze joints and tissue with increased precision and confidence.
With this technology, musculoskeletal conditions can be managed by increasing range of motion, eliminating fixation and improving functional capacity of patients through specific manipulative techniques assisted by the instrument in a precise and reproducible manner. The ProAdjuster enables the Doctor to analyze using a sophisticated instrument, treat the dysfunctional area and then reanalyze. This provides pre and post data which is very beneficial while overseeing the patient's course of care. It provides a method to track treatment progression that is precise, gentle and preferred.
