X-Rays
In-office digital X-rays for accurate spinal diagnosis — so Dr. Chavez can see exactly what is happening in your spine before creating your treatment plan.
In-Office Chiropractic X-Rays in Lubbock, TX
Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. At Back 2 Health Chiropractic in Lubbock, TX, Dr. Brett Chavez, D.C. offers in-office digital X-ray imaging so he can see exactly what is happening inside your spine before recommending any course of care.
Chiropractic X-rays provide crucial information that a physical examination alone cannot reveal — including the precise position of each vertebra, the condition of the disc spaces, the presence of bone spurs or arthritic changes, and the alignment of the spine as a whole. This information allows Dr. Chavez to design a treatment plan that is precisely targeted to your anatomy, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
Why Chiropractic X-Rays Matter
Many patients visit chiropractors having never seen an X-ray of their own spine. They may have been treated for years based on symptoms alone, without a clear picture of the underlying structural issues driving those symptoms. Spinal X-rays:
- Reveal subluxations and misalignments — showing the exact location and degree of vertebral displacement that is causing nerve interference.
- Assess disc health — narrowed disc spaces indicate disc degeneration or compression that guides treatment decisions for conditions like herniated discs and sciatica.
- Identify scoliosis — the Cobb angle measurement from an X-ray is the gold standard for diagnosing and monitoring scoliosis.
- Rule out contraindications — fractures, tumors, infections, or advanced osteoporosis can make certain chiropractic techniques inappropriate or dangerous. X-rays help Dr. Chavez identify these conditions before beginning care.
- Track progress — follow-up X-rays taken after a course of care objectively document spinal changes and improvement.
- Educate patients — seeing your own spine on X-ray is a powerful motivator. Most patients gain a much deeper understanding of their condition — and why their symptoms feel the way they do — when they can see it visually.

Our Digital X-Ray Technology
Back 2 Health Chiropractic uses digital radiography, which offers several advantages over traditional film X-rays:
- Lower radiation dose — digital sensors require significantly less radiation to produce a high-quality image than conventional film.
- Instant availability — images are available within seconds, allowing Dr. Chavez to review them with you during the same appointment.
- Superior image quality — digital images can be magnified, enhanced, and viewed at multiple angles without losing clarity.
- Easy sharing — if needed, digital images can be easily transferred to other healthcare providers as part of coordinated care.
When Are X-Rays Recommended?
Dr. Chavez takes a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to ordering X-rays. Not every patient needs imaging, but X-rays are particularly valuable for:
- New patients with complex or chronic spinal complaints
- Patients who have experienced trauma, falls, or accidents
- Evaluation of suspected scoliosis or structural deformity
- Patients with symptoms suggesting nerve compression or disc injury
- Cases where physical examination findings warrant structural confirmation
- Monitoring progression of a known spinal condition

- Neck pain — assessing cervical curve loss ("military neck"), disc height, and alignment
- Scoliosis — measuring the Cobb angle to determine severity and track treatment response
- Herniated and bulging discs — assessing disc space and identifying the involved level
- Sciatica — ruling out structural causes and guiding decompression therapy
- Sports rehabilitation — assessing injury severity before beginning a rehabilitation program
