Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to get a full evaluation of a patient. X-rays help us rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you. If you have had recent x-rays or diagnostic tests please bring copies to your appointment.  All Ault Chiropractic locations have digital x-rays available for your convenience and to decrease radiation exposure.  Any x-rays we perform in office will be sent to our radiologist.
