RN-1 Now Available!
RN-1 is a handheld training device for chiropractic and osteopathic students learning HVLA manipulation.
HVLA thrusts happen too fast to correct once they begin. You don’t adjust during the movement, you commit to it. RN-1 trains that moment before the thrust, where speed, timing, and control are set in advance.
At first, the goal is simple: produce a clean, repeatable thrust. From there, practice deepens. A consistent thrust becomes a starting point for variation; shifting intent, adjusting pressure, and noticing how small changes shape the outcome.
And you can do it all outside of class, in your own space, with something real to work against; making setup control, pressure, speed, and recoil visible every time.
This is an exciting new device, and it’s best introduced through the short video below.
BENEFITS
Practice on your own terms
RN-1 gives you a way to practise between classes and tutorials, without needing someone else present. You can revisit techniques in your own time and build familiarity through repetition that is entirely self-directed.
Something consistent to work against
Each attempt gives you immediate information about what just happened—how stable your setup was, how much pressure you used, how fast you moved, and how you released. It becomes a fixed reference point as your technique develops, so you can see what is changing and what isn’t.
A more thoughtful kind of repetition
Instead of repeating the same movement, you start to notice variation. Small changes in timing, intent, and coordination become visible through repetition. Over time, this builds control, consistency, and confidence in your hands.
FEATURES
THRUST ANALYSIS
Monitors setup stability, thrust pressure, thrust speed, and recoil intent during each complete thrust.
IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK
Clear visual feedback shows how each thrust comes together, designed to allow rapid review and focused repetition..
ADJUSTABLE GOALS
Pressure range, thrust speed range, and recoil intent can be adjusted to suit different training goals.
PORTABLE & SELF-CONTAINED
Battery powered, power efficient, and ready to use anywhere.
PROGRESSIVE SCORING
A cumulative scoring system adapts through three learning phases — with thresholds that adjust in response to recent performance patterns.
PRACTICAL DETAILS
No app or external device required
Works on any flat stable surface
Latex-free contact point
