Our Technology is what sets us apart.
Our scientific, reproducible results allow us to pinpoint a problem in your spine which in turn allows us to reduce the number of visits it takes to correct it.
Digital Motion X-Ray
X-ray is a standard practice in our chiropractic office (with a few minor exceptions, such as pregnancy). There are two main reasons why we need X-ray for you to become a patient at OWL Chiropractic and receive chiropractic care.
First, it is important to rule in or rule out any contraindications to chiropractic care, anatomical variants and/or congenital abnormalities.
The second reason is for analysis purposes - to identify spinal subluxations. Understanding how your spine looks and moves structurally is extremely important in understanding your problem and if we can help.
This is so important that our office uses DDR or Dynamic Digital Radiography which allows us to see your spine in motion while using minimal radiation.
The Pierce Results System at OWL Chiropractic
The Pierce Results System (PRS) is a system of biomechanical analysis of spine kinematics developed by Vernon Pierce, D.C., Sr. The system uses cineradiography (motion X-ray) studies to determine loss of proper spinal joint function causing neurological dysfunction. This is known as vertebral subluxation complex.
After the specific spinal vertebral subluxations are identified in a patient’s spine, they are then paired with a patient’s infrared thermography scan reflecting the neurological dysfunction. On each visit, infrared thermography scans are done so the doctor can determine if and when the vertebral subluxation needs to be adjusted based on the scan.
In short, the DDR (motion x-ray) tells the doctor where the problem is, and the infrared thermography scan tells the doctor when to adjust it.
Pierce Results System doctors use specialized drop tables and precise adjusting instruments to deliver truly personalized care. This allows for a much more comfortable patient experience and the exact structural specificity needed to help you reach Optimal Wellness for Life.
