Spinal X-Rays: Understanding Your Spinal Health

Chiropractic care is about more than just relieving pain—it’s about identifying and correcting the root cause of your problem. Digital X-rays play a crucial role in this process, allowing us to: detect spinal misalignments (subluxations), identify disc injuries, degeneration, or arthritis, assess postural imbalances and spinal curves, and ensure that every adjustment is safe, specific, and effective. By evaluating your spinal health under weight-bearing conditions, we gain a comprehensive understanding of how your structure impacts your overall health.

Your spine doesn’t work in sections—it functions as a whole. That’s why we often take full-spine X-rays, or digital X-rays, giving us a complete picture from your neck down to your pelvis. Problems in one area of the spine can create stress and compensation in another, so a whole-body view is essential for effective chiropractic care, helping us treat the source, not just the symptoms. Benefits of Digital X-Rays include high-resolution images for accuracy, immediate results available during your visit, lower radiation exposure than traditional film X-rays, and a clear roadmap for your personalized care plan focused on improving your spinal health.
