Why I Need X-rays and Traditional Chiropractors Don’t
X-rays measure the spine’s Positioning. They are a snapshot of how the bones in the patient’s spine are
Positioned or Aligned. They do not show Motion, so it is inappropriate for a traditional chiropractor to
say that they use the x-rays to help them know how to Mobilize the joints in the spine. It makes no
sense.
I need to take x-rays in order to measure the spine’s positioning so that I can calculate the exact angle to
correct the problem. I correct the problem without any twisting/cracking/popping since my goal is not
Mobilizing. The correction that I do feels like I’m taking your pulse. Very gentle. After I correct the
positioning, I take the exact same x-rays again after the first correction
