The clinic says the first visit starts with a conversation about your symptoms, concerns, and goals. This is followed by an examination focused on the spine, posture, and range of motion. If appropriate, the visit may also include evaluation by the athletic trainer, X-rays if needed, treatment, and a customized care plan with guidance for what to do at home.

No. Compass states that X-rays are only taken when the examination shows they are necessary. The office has digital X-rays onsite for cases where imaging is needed.
