X-ray has been an integral part of the practice of many well established chiropractic techniques to ensure safety and efficiency of care. In times when imaging has proven to be a great scientific asset for patients and doctors; it is amazing to believe that a professional group would adopt a contrary measure to science and common good for the public and the profession

This is the first chiropractor to xray my back & neck, now I understand why I couldn't walk. Correction in my neck & back has me walking again within 2 months. I still have a long way to go but with xray we know how to further treatment. Without xray it has been years of blind man's bluff, physio & acupuncture has only been treating the symptoms.

In times when technology is a requirement for diagnosis even when alternatives exist, this tailored restriction on a none-mainstream branch of healthcare appears less evidence based and more politically motivated.

Fraud at work. Routine and repeat X-rays for analysis of spine deformties (aka subluxation) is definitively an evidence-based practice - regardless if a chiropractor chooses to practice this way or not. Ignorance of data does not support practice limiting policies. The Corso et al. 'rapid review' that provided the sole support for the radical policy change to restrict full X-ray rights that has not been considered a healthcare crisis for 87 years is a flawed study. Corso included only 9 papers for the whole history of X-ray use in the chiropractic profession!! The review was a joke. There are literally 100s in not 1000s of studies that support routine and repeat use of X-rays in the treatment of patients by manual therapies.

The use of timely X-rays by qualified practioners, with certified and maintained equipment , along with the knowledge of the patients' X-ray exposure from other sources is always beneficial to the patient and there care.

I don’t know how my chiropractor could possibly treat me with this highly effective non violent and safer type of chiropractic without x-rays to guide him.

The removal of this diagnostic tool from their practice should not take place. They have been allowed the certification and uphold the regulations of use, why the change now?

This is an outrageous assault on the profession of chiropractic by those who fail to understand that an accurate diagnosis of a patient is often predicated on the findings from x-ray studies. Accuracy of diagnosis and the safety of patients should be of paramount consideration.

This is a microcosm of the COVID agenda. Propaganda, attack on natural health, collusion, bribery, etc. It's sickening. Absolutely no consideration of the clients.

I am opposed to this restriction on chiropractic use of xrays. Xrays are an integral tool in the application of chiropractic care.

To see is to know and to not see is to guess. Why would one guess on anything in life, especially in regards to someone’s health?
