Spinal and other osseous joint adjusting instrument
First Claim
1. An instrument for adjusting osseous joint subluxation comprising:
- a portable portion, comprising a moveable stylus to be held adjacent to the patient in the proximity of the osseous joint to be adjusted, which stylus may move either laterally along the axis of the stylus or radially about the axis of the stylus, a central portion containing the driving means for imparting motion to the stylus, a means for holding said portable portion, and a display means to indicate when the said portable portion is properly aligned with the patient,said driving means comprising a means to actuate said moveable stylus in both linear and rotational direction, said stylus being activated by a series of specific square wave pulses, said pulse means generated in said driving means, anda fixed portion, comprising display and adjustment means, to set and display the lateral and radial components of the energy to be transmitted to the patient;
the proper alignment of the portable portion of the instrument with the patient;
generating means for said complex energy waveform to provide the desired signals to the stylus driving means and the power supply and switches to actuate and operate the instrument.

Abstract
An instrument for adjusting vertebrae and other osseous joint subluxation and luxations comprising a device for generating a complex energy waveform, of varying frequency and amplitude, to be applied to the patient in the proximity of the vertebrae or other joints to be adjusted comprising a hand held portion with a moveable stylus at one end, which imparts lateral and torque components of energy, a stylus driving apparatus, a display array to indicate proper alignment of the hand held portion and a pistol grip for ease of handling of the hand held portion; and a fixed controller portion which is used to program the proper alignment of and energy to be applied via the stylus in the hand held portion, and the method for adjusting vertebrae and other osseous joint subluxation and luxations using the said complex energy waveform.
