Specific Upper Cervical Digital X-Rays
If the history and exam indicate the presence of a spinal misalignment, then a series of precision digital x-rays are taken. It is imperative to know you will only be accepted as a patient if the consultation, history and exam indicate that you would benefit from upper cervical chiropractic care.
Each adjustment is calculated from x-ray measurements. The upper cervical adjustment is dependent upon precise angles, physics and biomechanics. By taking specific x-rays we eliminate any need for guessing or using excessive force during adjustments. The x-rays play a critical role to ensure the spinal correction is accurate and effective.
Thorough analysis of these x-ray images reveal the direction and degree of upper cervical misalignment; and subsequently, how to properly restore spinal balance. The Blair technique utilizes precise x-rays of the upper cervical area to determine which way the vertebrae has misaligned so that a precise and specific adjustment may be tailored and administered to that individual.
