To evaluate the biomechanical integrity of your spine we take a series of small, specifically targeted x-rays. In total, these smaller x-rays are equivalent in radiation to one full spine x-ray, but we are able to get better, more precise measurements from the smaller series. A full spine x-ray requires a much stronger beam and produces greater tissue damage in comparison to our targeted views. With the information gained from these x-rays we can apply specific corrective adjustments, prescribe exercises, and design rehabilitation and weighting protocols. The end result is a measurable reduction in the severity of your scoliosis.
