Through the years, I have been very appreciative of Dr. Hammer's column, but on this particular occasion, I was deeply offended by what he had to say about the Activator method.

I consider myself to be quite competent in manual manipulation and I choose to practice the Activator method because of the excellent results that it achieves and because no one ever gets hurt.
