Question
I woke up with stiff neck- it occasionally happens. I plan to see chiropracor- Can he adjust my shoulder and neck without taking X-ray?

Last time I saw this D.C. was about 2 years ago

Answer
Manny,

Thanks for the question and I hope I can help.

My policy is that if I see a patient with no contraindications to manipulation or complicating factors, then I will adjust the patient with your complaints without xrays.  You may ask the doctor's office what their policy is.

Dr. Boss
