An x-ray is a diagnostic test that uses electromagnetic waves to create pictures of the inside of the body. This type of x-ray is called a digital x-ray. A digital x-ray uses a computer to create the x-ray image, which can be stored on a computer.
A digital x-ray is different from a traditional x-ray because it:
Is more clear and detailed
Uses less radiation
Can be stored on a computer
Provides images quickly
Why Get a Spine X-Ray?
A spinal x-ray can give our chiropractor in Walpole important information about your spine. The imaging can help diagnose problems with your bones, joints, and discs. A spinal x-ray can also help find problems with the ligaments, muscles, and other soft tissues in your back that are tougher to diagnose without the images.
It is not always necessary to have an x-ray. In some cases, your symptoms, a physical exam, and your medical history will be enough for our chiropractor in Walpole to come to a diagnosis. In other cases, we may recommend an x-ray or other imaging tests to get more information about your condition before beginning treatment.
We would only recommend an x-ray if we felt it was medically necessary to help with diagnosis and guide us with treatment options. X-rays do expose you to radiation, so it’s best to only use this course of action if it’s deemed necessary.
What to Expect When Getting a Spinal X-Ray
If it’s decided that a spinal x-ray would be beneficial, one of our team members will take you to the x-ray room in our office. You will be asked to remove any jewelry or other objects that might effect the imaging. You’ll be positioned with the x-ray machine and our team member will step out of the room to snap the image. We may take multiple images from different angles to make sure we have the best outcome. You may be asked to hold your breath at certain points during the x-ray to prevent movement that could blur the image.
Usually taking x-rays only take a few minutes. Once we are done grabbing the images, we will be able to review them on our computers within minutes. We can show you the images and talk through exactly what we are seeing and how this is playing a role in your health.

I am very happy with my treatment & results from Full Power Chiropractic. I have been going for almost 1.5 years now. I first went in for neck pain from sitting at a computer all day for work. Dr. Pallis diagnosed my symptoms, took an x-ray, and quickly set me up with a plan including adjustments & use of the spinal decompression technology he has at his office. Scheduling appointments is so convenient & flexible. I would recommend Dr. Pallis & his staff to anyone - they are great!
Wish I’d gone sooner. First visit, they found what was pulling on my neck, adjusted it cleanly, and explained it without rushing. Stood straighter and slept better that night. Already booked the next one. Five stars.
I have been consulting Dr. Pallis regarding pregnancy-related concerns since my final trimester, and I observed noticeable improvements after just a few sessions. I am truly appreciative of the care and treatment he provides. Additionally, his staff members, Lisa and Marianna, are wonderful and remain consistently welcoming and accommodating.
The Dr. and his staff were very kind and professional. I highly recommend!
After visiting for myself and my wife we feel they are truly the best place to go. They are knowledgeable and efficient .

I was experiencing pain from my lower back down and swelling. I was recommended full power by a friend and gave them a call asking if I could be seen asap as I couldn’t move much or bend down. I was told to come in and was seen, x rayed and corrected within the hour. Dr. Derrick walked me through my X-rays and explained everything to me, and pointed out my L5 was out of alignment and pressing my sciatic nerve. After the first 2 visits I noticed a dramatic difference ! Highly recommend
Dr Derrick and his team are first class. Started going a few years ago with continued neck discomfort from workouts and golfing. Wasn’t a huge believer in chiropractic treatment, but after a few years of continued regular treatment (2x month), my discomfort is completely gone, no more recurring neck pain issues. Highly recommend Dr. Derrick and his team, they are great!
Dr. Pallis, Lisa and Mariana are the absolute best. My husband, Rich, who recently turned 80, suffered from sciatic pain for years. It was getting progressively worse and had become debilitating, causing him to not be able to stand or walk upright or play golf, which he loves. He tried physical therapy at two local places with really no benefit. My sister, Carol, recommended Dr. Pallis highly, so we decided to give him a try. We thank God that we did. Rich started to feel much different after just a few treatments and now, months later, is almost completely pain free and is able to live life fully again. We plan to go back as often as needed in the future. Dr. Pallis' staff, Lisa and Mariana, are as kind, welcoming and efficient as anyone you'll ever meet. Thank you all so very much for all of your help! We'll always be grateful.
I'm adding to my review to tell everyone that I, too, have been greatly helped by Full Power Chiropractic. I really needed help with neck pain caused by constant jarring while going over terrible potholes almost daily for months. The pain was sometimes so severe that it felt like someone was sticking a knife into my neck. It also caused vertigo, which almost became disabling at times. After twenty-two visits, I am now feeling so much better that it's hard to put into words how grateful I am to Dr. Pallis, Lisa and Mariana. You will not meet finer people anywhere. I definitely will be back to see you all!
