Citizens for Chiropractic and the Continued Use of X-rays

What next???

I have found NUCCA to be of much more assistance to me than anything else that I have tried and would be devastated to lose this treatment. Please reconsider your recent bylaw.

NUCCA chiropractic treatment has been so effective that I was able to continue work for several more years. Not burdening society when I had exhausted other options presented to me. Please let these practioners carry on with their current practise of taking Xrays in there offices or provide them with access to do so at accredited facilities on an urgent basis. Thank you Debra

This service is required, necessary and successful for my well-being

It's so much importante tool for the chiropractic care

I had had terrible trouble with my neck and upper back & shoulders and had tried everything; physiotherapy, massage therapy, conventional chiropractic and acupuncture and literally with my first and second treatments my problem vanished! I was impressed and happy so this restriction by the College seems contrary to healing!

I think this is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of spinal issues. I've been using chiropractic services for well over 30 years and the ability for the doctor to use x-rays has played a very important part.

We as DOCTORS have the right to practice within our scope and that includes radiographs. If the patient gives their informed consent then there is no reason we shouldn’t be using this tool.

x-rays are an essential tool for the Nucca practise

A governing body limiting the ability for Doctor (& Patient) to access to imaging as a routine aspect of clinical assessment will place both Doctor & patient at greater risk and significantly limit the variety of techniques available to the people of British Columbia. It would effective eliminate all upper cervical specific and structural based techniques for the public access. Further more this is a likely a gateway for the college to impose other severe restrictions.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS SPECIFIC, SCIENTIFIC, IMPORTANCE AWAY FROM CHIROPRACTIC ANALYSIS

High handed approach to a nopn problem. Just like COVID

This treatment was the only thing that helped me. This would be such a disservice for so many people.

Soy quiropráctico y son fundamentales las radiografías

I support allowing chiropractors to take xrays.

NUCCA has the best methods for chiropractors. We need them and their methods of treatment

The ability of the chiropractor to use dianostic imaging is not only paramount to the efficacy of their care but a necessary means of ensuring safety of the public. and the profession.

Use of X-rays is necessary for Chiropractic practice

I have been having chiropractic adjustment since the 1970's but it was not until the early 1990's when I started NUCCA treatments that I found recovery. An essential part of that recovery was periodic x-rays to determine my present condition. It was with the use of x-rays that my doctor was able to keep up with my ongoing changes over the decades. I believe that the use of x-rays has been a vital part of my continued success in health.

Why restrict a tool that could give more knowledge and understanding of the issues to help with the direction of treatment ?
