My current chiro - she's wonderful. She spend about 30 minutes with me - about 15 with heat packs & relaxation (sound machine & lights off) - and 15 minutes hands-on time. If there are specific problems I'm having, she'll focus on those areas. Otherwise, it's a bit of back massage, then chiro treatment/adjustment (that part only lasts like 5 minutes). I've never had xrays at a chiropractor - I've had an ultrasound before, but never xray. <br />I'd suggest keep looking if you're not happy.

You can try self treatment with stretching and heat and maybe Naproxen or Ibuprofen. It is true that X-Rays rarely effect treatment-most likely you would have had the same treatment with or without X-Rays. X-rays are overutilized driving up the cost of healthcare and exposing patients to unnessary radiation.Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07265867227953745716noreply@blogger.com
