Do you take X-rays in your Lancaster office?
Yes. An X-ray is a picture of your bones. Sparks Family Chiropractic takes X-rays in its own office, so you do not have to go somewhere else. The doctor takes X-rays to find out if your problem can be helped and to plan the right care. Up to six X-rays are included in the $37 new patient exam. Other services are not included in the $37 exam.
What is hydro massage?
Hydro massage is a massage from jets of warm water while you lie fully dressed on a padded table. A waterproof cover keeps you dry. It is used to relax tight muscles, often before or after an adjustment. A hydro massage session at Sparks Family Chiropractic takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

A surface EMG is a test that measures the electrical activity of your muscles with small sensors placed on your skin. EMG stands for electromyography. It uses no needles. It shows the doctor how hard muscles along your spine are working.
What is infrared thermography?
Infrared thermography is a test that measures the heat of your skin along your spine with a handheld scanner. It uses no radiation and does not touch you in a way that hurts. The doctor may use it to compare the left and right sides of your spine.

Custom foot orthotics are shoe inserts made to fit your feet. They support the arches of your feet, which can affect how your knees, hips and back line up. The doctor checks your feet and orders inserts made for you. We go over the cost with you as part of your care plan.
Which service is right for me?
You do not have to choose. The doctor looks at your exam and X-rays and then explains which services may help you and why, and builds them into your care plan.
