What Your X-Rays Say About Your Spine (and What They Don’t)
Description
Ever wondered what your spine actually looks like on an X-ray? Or why chiropractors sometimes take them? In this episode of The Health Commute, we dive into the real purpose of spinal X-rays, what they can reveal about your posture, alignment, and joint health—and just as importantly, what they don’t show.
We’ll break down common findings like arthritis, loss of curve, and degenerative changes, and explain why some people with “bad” X-rays feel great while others with “normal” X-rays are in pain. We’ll also tackle misconceptions, like whether chiropractors overuse X-rays and whether they’re necessary for every patient.
Tune in to learn how imaging fits into chiropractic care, when you should get an X-ray, and why your pain story is bigger than just an image.
