Why might I need an x-ray?
As a new patient at Myers Chiropractic you will be asked to give some information on your medical history as well as let us know what is currently bothering you. Dr. Myers might have you do some different stretches to see your range of motion in the area that is bothering you.
Most of the time the next step is the chiropractic adjustment which is where Dr. Myers will manually adjust your spine using different chiropractic techniques. However, sometimes it is necessary to do a digital x-ray to further assess what is going on with your bones that could be causing your pain or discomfort.
What if I need an x-ray?
Most conditions that you would come to the chiropractor for are muscular and wouldn’t show up on an x-ray. However, x-rays can come in handy when a chiropractor is unsure what is causing pain or if they suspect it could be something more than just muscular causing the pain.
An x-ray allows the chiropractor to see what is going on with the bones in your body and their alignment. An x-ray can also show scar tissue and the presence of arthritis which could be a cause of your pain. Knowing these things can help your chiropractor properly treat you and can help get you relief from your pain faster.
