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 Eagan 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 Eagan 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've gotten adjustments from Dr. Ryan; he's really good. Massages from Kyle; he's very knowledgeable and professional, and made the appointments very comfortable. Red light therapy from Caroline; she’s very welcoming and wonderful.<br><br>I go to Dr. Caleb the most. I was having a tough time sleeping, so I went to the Eagan location on a Wednesday morning just to get an adjustment; I usually go to the Lakeville office. I got so much instant relief that I was able to take a nap on my lunch break.<br><br>I highly recommend this team; they're all amazing and really friendly, and they keep the facilities tidy and clean.
I’ve had a great experience working with Danielle at the Alpha Spine Eagan location. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and takes the time to really listen to what’s going on before jumping into treatment. She genuinely cares about her patients’ well-being and it shows in the quality of care she provides. I highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a chiropractor who is both skilled and compassionate.
Due to a broken neck in 1999 I've required treatments ever since. Worthington Wellness kept me mobile and Alpha Spine continues to keep me pain free and away from surgery. I've been to MANY chiropractors and they are not all the same. Alpha coordinates treatment between your doctor, their chiropractors, massage therapist and accupuncturist. You can't do that on your own. Professional, caring, friendly staff makes it feel like home. A+++
I greatly appreciate Dr. Danielle's expertise and care. I've been going to her for a while now, and when she joined Alpha Spine the care became even better.
I’ve had both massage and chiropractic services here, and every experience has been top tier. The team is professional, knowledgeable, and truly cares about their clients. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived - highly recommend!
Dr Danielle has transformed our entire family’s health for years! She has helped us through chronic ailments, and sports injuries, always supporting us with kind and masterful care. I highly recommend you add her chiropractic care to your routine.
My experience at Alpha Spine Health & Injury Center has been great! As a long time patient, l can say that the whole team is welcoming, and Dr. Danielle listens and personalizes her care to ensure that your chiropractic needs are met.
Best chiro experience I have had. They treat you like an actual person and not just a number. Danielle is absolutely fantastic. She has been so incredibly helpful in relieving pain in my neck and hips, and especially during my pregnancy. Not to mention how incredibly kind she is. Highly recommend!
Karlily gave an amazing massage! You can tell she puts a lot of care and attention into her technique and reading what your body needs. She always made sure I was comfortable and the space felt so relaxing!
Truly one of the best massage experiences I’ve ever had! Karlily did a phenomenal job kneading out the kinks in my neck and lower back. She moved at my pace and comfort level and was happy to share the knowledge of her craft when I would ask questions. She took time to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. I can’t wait to go back!
The chiropractor really knows his stuff and I highly recommend. I had a terrible back injury I came in with. He adjusted me and gave me ways to strengthen, stretch, and treat my back at home for quicker recovery. $180 evaluation and 1st adjustment, $60 every visit after.
Always patient centered, individualizing my needs according to what my body needs and I really appreciate the overall wellness approach and offers acupuncture which is a great addition for myself.
Dr. Heather, Dr. Danielle, and Sarah are wonderful. My family and I have been going here since my son was little (he just graduated high school). Would highly recommend them all!
Dr. Heather, Dr. Danielle, and Sarah have been helping me manage chronic conditions from back pain, carpal tunnel, anxiety, and more for over 5 years. They are part of my core wellness program and I cannot recommend them enough! Their office is calm, and low stress to promote a healthy mindset.
I have seen Sarah twice and each time I felt a noticeable difference! She is very knowledgeable and takes a great deal of time explaining what she is doing and why. I've learned a lot and feel like having a better understanding has really impacted my healing. I would recommend Sarah to anyone in need of someone with vast knowledge and a huge heart! I am so grateful to be working with her! .
My visit to Worthington Wellness was, as it has been each time, professional, pleasant and quite thoughtful regarding my comfort. I always leave the office feeling a lot better than when Iarrived.
Dr Danielle is wonderful! Always able to get me moving again and provide things I can do at home as well. Everyone at Worthington wellness is so friendly and genuinely cares about the patients.
I have been enjoying services at Worthington Wellness Center for the past couple of years and consider it to be an essential piece of my wellness routine. In the absence of these services on Military deployments, I could tell the toll it took on my body. All staff at this center are amazing, knowledgeable, and wonderful humans all around. Highly recommend!
I love how the chiropractors Dr. Heather and Dr. Danielle are gentle when adjusting and they are interested in what’s going on in your life. They are flexible with scheduling appointments.
I came from a chiropractor that adjusted every patient the same everytime. Then I found this group and have been extremely pleased. The appointments are long enough to target specific areas even if those areas change over time. I leave feeling knowledgeable to what is causing an issue and have direct feedback to what I can do different at home to help the adjustments last longer. Highly recommend!
Worthington Wellness is top notch. They are detail oriented, thorough, friendly, and always on time. I would be happy to recommend a friend to this clinic.
Been a 12+ year client. Broke my neck in 2000 and injured lower back in 2008. They have kept me virtually pain free and fully active. My angels. No in and out in 5 minutes. They take their time to give you what you need. I have been to several others in my lifetime but no one comes close to Worthington Wellness.
My first time trying acupuncture. Michelle was very informative and helpful with explaining the process and side effects if any. My next appointment was scheduled for the following week. I felt a big difference after my first appointment of just 30 minutes. My next appointment will be an hour. I'm very excited as acupuncture is beneficial imagine ongoing treatment. I'll be back to my old self in no time.
I love all the ladies at Worthington Wellness! I have suffered from low back pain for so many years. The pain in my legs and loss of feeling drove me to back surgery. I was ok for several years but was then in a car accident which brought me to Dr Heather. I have been under her care for 6 years. She got me straightened around, literally. Medical Drs talk about fusing my back but with regular monthly appointments I am able to avoid that. Now I get adjusted once a month, have cupping done, and a monthly therapeutic massage. If I have to miss an appointment due to work I can feel it! I now live over an hour away..... But these ladies are worth the drive. Thank you for keeping me moving!!
After years of being very active, I suddenly developed neck and lower back pain that forced me to give up all of my activities. I saw medical doctors, physical therapists, massage therapists and acupuncturists. One medical doctor was able to give me some relief with medication, but not enough to allow me to resume any activity. I saw Dr .Danielle at Worthington Wellness Center. She evaluated my neck and lower back, and developed a corrective care plan, consisting of spinal adjustments, stretches and exercises. After five treatments with Dr. Danielle, I have found relief to the point that I have been able to resume some of my activities. I am confident, that with Dr. Danielle's continued care, I will continue to see improvement. Thank you, Dr. Danielle!
After trying to treat my chronic migraines with doctors, pain specialists, neurologists, massage, twelve different medications, and an array of other treatments I have found Dr. Heather and her techniques to be the most effective course. I've struggled with daily migraines and headaches for just over a year, and Dr. Heather has made it so I can attend school again, work through a full day without having to lay down, and regain the energy I had before I was diagnosed with chronic migraines. Dr. Heather's chiropractic work and push for living a healthy lifestyle has done more for me than two rounds of botox injections into my head, trigger point injections, and countless medications. I would refer anyone to Dr. Heather wholeheartedly.
