If You’re Not Getting X-Rays, You’re Not Getting Seen—Literally

Without full spine X-rays, chiropractic care isn’t specific... it’s speculation.

At Peak Potential Chiropractic, we don’t believe in playing guessing games with your health. That’s why we use digital full spine X-rays on nearly every patient (yep—exceptions exist, like during pregnancy or with young kids). But for everyone else? X-rays aren’t optional. They’re essential.

🔍 Why? Because symptoms lie—spinal structure doesn’t.

Your spine holds the key to what’s really going on. Pain is just the tip of the iceberg. X-rays give us your personal roadmap: a full, objective view of your spine’s health so we can pinpoint the exact root cause of your issues—not just chase symptoms!!

💡 The Gonstead Method Relies on Three Non-Negotiables:

Specificity

Objectivity

REAL Results

And none of those are possible without seeing what’s beneath the surface. Hands can feel tension. Eyes can observe posture. But only X-rays can reveal what’s actually happening inside your spine.

🔎 What X-Rays Reveal That Hands Never Can:

  • Early signs of degenerative disc disease

  • Spinal curvatures (like scoliosis or straight neck)

  • Congenital abnormalities

  • Fractures or red flags that contraindicate adjustments

Would you let a surgeon operate without imaging first? Then why let someone adjust your spine in the dark? Let me guess - you are worried about radiation? Don’t be—our digital X-rays use extremely low doses, comparable to what you’d get from a cross-country flight, and well within safe medical guidelines.

At Peak Potential Chiropractic, our mission is simple: “Unleash Your Peak Potential.”
That starts with clarity—not guesswork.
