PulStar Perfect Impulse

Fri, 04 May 2012 13:58:13 -0400

Chiropractors occasionally ask how the PulStar impulse differs from a manual adjustment, sometimes adding "Isn't it just a vibration?" It’s as if they believe that the PulStar is only a massager and not a "real" adjustment. So we put together a slide presentation to show the similarities between the PulStar impulse and the ideal manual adjustment. We illustrated the manual adjustment using the work of Dr. Walter Herzog (Clinical Biomechanics of Spinal Manipulation). As you will see in the slides, the PulStar adjustment perfectly mimics the form of the ideal manual adjustment but is much more repeatable. The PulStar adjustments are delivered with no telegraphing and are hundreds of times faster than a single manual impulse. This allows the force levels of the PulStar to be far lower than the forces used in manual adjustments while still giving excellent patient results.

PulStar Patient Testimonial Contest!

Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:30:57 -0400

We want all the PulStar patients to like our page and post a testimonial on the Sense Technology Inc. - PulStar wall. We'll review all of the testimonials and the one judged to be the best will receive a New iPad. Not only that, but the PulStar doctor's office that the patient frequents will ALSO receive a New iPad!

You can register for the contest here:

Don't forget to post on the wall to finalize your registration!

We'll run the contest until the end of September so that the iPad ships before the Holidays.

Special note: All employees of Sense Technology and their relatives are ineligible for this contest. ;-)

Sneak Peek

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:43:42 -0500

Here is a sneak peek at one of the things we are working on right now. It's been in the works for many years but we finally have a prototype together. This version has a 7 inch touch screen and does analysis only. It also incorporates a new sensor that we just developed and multiple-impulse analysis. So instead of just one impulse during the analysis it impulses 4 times at more than 60 impulses per second so it's faster than you can imagine. Check it out at the March 10th-11th PulStar seminar in Pittsburgh this year!

Latest Software

Mon, 24 Oct 2011 20:35:48 -0400

We released the latest update to the PulStar software today and shipped a CD to all the doctors who attended seminars this year. The new updates include:

(For PulStar G2s and previous* version 9.7 ...)

New preload indicator and preload settings
New patient encounter timer
New Inter-segmental differences indicator in the analysis
New total number of impulses for the visit and warning when 2000 impulses is reached for cooling
Fixed - First patient selected for the day defaults to correct analysis force level
Fixed - Default force level for analysis is reset when a new patient is selected from the list

(PulStar G3** version 10.1.1 includes the above and …)

New check for updated firmware version on launch of the program
New preference to order the selected vertebrae to your liking
Updated - auto shutoff now waits for a % decrease in stiffness before shutting off

I think everyone will like the new changes.

*Older PulStar systems will require a firmware update to work with the 9.7 software properly. They require version 9.9 of the firmware minimum. Most PulStar G2s will support the new software. There is a fee for firmware updates to the older PulStar models.

**All PulStar G3s are enabled with a USB firmware update program which allows the firmware to be updated in the field without being required to be shipped in to Sense Technology for an update.

Protocol Sneak Peek

Well, it's been some time since I updated everyone. I wanted to add a sample of some of our new protocols that we teach at the seminars. Below is a video sample of the soft tissue protocols that Dr. Walton has developed for use with the soft tissue tools. Enjoy this sample and remember you can find more information at our Online Learning Center too!

Steve Jobs

Thu, 06 Oct 2011 10:59:59 -0400

It is a sad day for many in the technology world. Steve Jobs passed away October 5th but has left us with quite a legacy. Over the last 30 years Steve Jobs helped create a new paradigm of easy computing available to a large group of the world. His idea of simply making things work without having to know the details behind CPUs and Operating Systems has created a workplace or home that can focus on the productivity and results of the computing experience rather than dwelling on the process of getting the job done.

We design our products based on the concept created by Steve Jobs and Apple always trying to make things as simple as possible and yet get the most information you can from the simple interface we provide.

We will miss you Steve, but we will continue to instill your ideas in each and every product we design and build. Thank you for showing us all that thinking out of the box can help further innovation and productivity.

New Develpment

We are working on some new things these days, as always, but sometimes it takes more time to get something ready than we expect. We have been working on something new for about 5 years now. Worked late getting the next steps ready last night. Shouldn't be too much longer now....

Working Hard

Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:23:59 -0400

Had a great day helping doctors implement the PulStar in their practice. We spend quite a bit of time working with doctors so that they can get the most out of the PulStar System. It's never easy to change and adopt new technology but it's great to see doctors excited about starting a new day with a new system to analyze and treat patients. I love hearing the doctor's voice when they call to tell me how much fun they are having with their patients and the PulStar!
