History and Exam

It is extremely beneficial to have an exact visual record of your spine in a weight bearing position. This gives your Chiropractor valuable information to assist him or her in better understanding your particular condition.

The reason the films are taken in a weight bearing position (upright) is because this give your Chiropractor a better understanding of your body as it relates to gravity. We spend the majority of the day in an upright position (e.g. sitting and standing) therefore this gives a clearer indication of how gravity is affecting your body.

Special care is taken to reduce X-ray exposure.
