Why We Take X-Rays
At the Ipswich Spine Clinic, we prioritise accuracy in assessing your health. Spinal X-Rays can uncover critical issues such as spinal arthritis or other disorders that might be silently developing. Think of X-Rays as a detailed map of your spine, highlighting any misalignments. This insight allows us to tailor the most effective treatment plan for you. By using X-Rays, we ensure a more precise diagnosis.
However, please note that X-Rays are not always necessary for every treatment. We only perform them when clinically indicated, in accordance with IR(ME) regulations. If you’re looking for a chiropractor, make sure they take X-Rays when clinically indicated; otherwise, how can they accurately determine the cause of your problem?
Understanding Spinal Decay (Subluxation Degeneration)
Spinal decay is similar to tooth decay; it often results from neglect. This condition can affect anyone, regardless of age. While it is more common in older adults, it is not simply a part of the ageing process. Spinal decay stems from uncorrected spinal misalignments (subluxations) and is the body’s response to the stress of gravity. Unfortunately, many people experience spinal decay because they have ignored spinal issues for years.
