Xrays Taken at Chiropractor | Are they REALLY necessary?

In this video, Dr. Todd discusses the need for chiropractic x-rays of the spine in conjunction with care. Is it even needed? Why? What information do these provide for chiropractic care?
While many chiropractors DO NOT take x-rays, and look at this process as something to be done only when all else fails, a Gonstead Chiropractor (who also practices Chiropractic BioPhysics), doesn’t only utilize pre and post x-rays, but these also guide the care process.
I know that many are addicted to watching sensational videos of y-strap chiropractic, where the doctor pulls on the head in a hard, jerking motion... would x-rays play a role in these moves?
Can x-ray analysis be helpful in understanding movement dysfunctions? Watch and find out! Dr. Todd cover some of the MOST common movement dysfunctions that we see and how this relates back to a specific finding on spinal x-ray.

    I would never want a dentist to work on my teeth without seeing what is going on underneath the surface first. Same concept with spinal x-rays. "What can be measured can me managed." Great content Dr. Todd

    I have had X-rays taken before at gonstead so they can properly assess my situation it made me feel as if I was a unique case they cared about

    Great video! Like you said, the only way to know what is going on with the spine is by taking an x-ray and see!

    As a LMT I can adjust my own back after icing and get relief I need. Things I don't want are: x-rays, and horrible drop tables. It's hard finding those who are really really good at chiropractic. I've had a great one who retired and haven't found great one since.

    Thanks doc!!! Pretty amazing video. Can you show us more about the machines that you use to generate traction on the spine? That will be amazing!!

    They are absolutely necessary. XRAYS are so amazing to me. No human anatomy is the exact same so let’s treat people as they are!! No assumptions! Good job TP
