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 Charlotte 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 Charlotte 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.

One word I'd like to use before I begin this review is Stellar. When it comes to chiropractic care I would like to consider myself a bit of an expert. Not only have I been a patient I've also have been on the other side lol. So I'm sure you asking what do I mean by that I'm going to tell you 😁. Growing up I can remember hearing about chiropractor care here there and the terminology that would be used was I'm not going to a chiropractor I'm not letting him "crack" my back. now that terminology is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I quickly correct people saying no that's called an adjustment. I have worked for two chiropractors in Texas and I also worked at Parker Chiropractic College in Texas. That being said Dr Tunis is one of the most thorough chiropractors I've ever come in contact with and trust me I've been in contact with a lot of them working at the college. His background in chiropractic care and other studies that support it, is extensive. He has chiropractic care in his bloodline. His dad used to work out of that very office. That being said. My neck completely seized on me one night. I used to pass his office and always want to go there because it looked like a little house. I went to the website filled out the form let them know what was going on to me they got me and I believe the next day. From the moment he began to adjust me I knew that he knew what he was doing. I was literally crying real tears he didn't panic. He immediately started working to give me some relief. He talked me through what he was doing He made me comfortable and gave me one of the best adjustments I've ever had. And yes he did x-rays and everything accordingly. His staff is absolutely amazing. His wife is absolutely amazing. So now I'm asking what are you waiting for Go get your adjustment tell him I sent you and take part in some of that amazement.

From the incredible Quick service, to the hospitable atmosphere, this place is your go to for any chiropractic needs. This husband and wife duo is top tier and I would recommend anyone to them. They truly helped me out when I needed it.
Drs. Tunis and Estela Hunt have been very instrumental in getting me fully mobile again. I came to their practice in mid-June in excruciating pain and with limited mobility due to sciatica. After being evaluated, they devised a treatment plan with the goal of fully restoring my mobility with several sessions of decompression and spinal adjustments. I followed the plan they put in place, and within a few weeks, I could tell and feel the difference. Upon completion of my sessions, I'm happy to say that my mobility has been fully restored, and most importantly, I'm pain free! Thank you for your expert guidance, exceptional care, and service shown throughout this process, and a big thank you to Jackie and Adrianna for the exceptional customer service and smiles always given! I'm so thankful for Hunt for Wellness!
Always welcomed with a smile. I feel valued as a patient and that my needs and well being is a priority. Very professional and pleasant front office staff as well.
