FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you take X-rays on site?
Yes, digital X-ray is available in the clinic. Whether imaging is needed is a clinical judgement made during the examination — it is not taken as a matter of routine.
Is chiropractic treatment appropriate for everyone?
No. There are conditions where spinal manipulation is not indicated, which is why the examination comes first. If your presentation is better handled elsewhere, we will tell you.
Do you also offer acupuncture?
Yes, acupuncture and therapeutic massage are both available, and are often used alongside adjustment rather than instead of it.
