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 El Dorado Hills 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 El Dorado Hills 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.
Getting X-Rays of Your Spine in El Dorado Hills
If you’re dealing with a health issue, it’s possible that it’s connected to your spine. The spine plays a major role in your overall health.

Dr. Steve and his entire staff are truly the best! You get not only fantastic chiropractic care but fantastic customer service from a team that truly cares!! There’s nothing better than choosing a team that loves what they do and makes you feel like part of the family!!
Dr. Steve is the Best, both my husband and I appreciate the great care that we receive! Yes indeed, We love our Chiropractor! Staff is always professional and kind!
I use chiropractic care as a preventative, and I have been a very happy patient of Dr. Steve’s for over 15 years. He has kept my family and me well with dynamic and personalized care, recommendations for remedial exercises, and adjustments that work! We love Town Center Family Chiropractic and Dr. Steve!
I like that they will text and remind me that I haven’t been in, in awhile. It helps me remember how good I feel after my visits with Dr. Long, so I make an appointment.
Dr Steve has been my go to guy when my body needs an adjustment! I have been seeing him on and off for 10 years! He gets me straightened out, and out the door, to live a happy life! All the office staff are first class in all areas!
Very professional from Receptionist to Doctor Long. Always a warm welcome and very well organized. They care about why you are there. I would recommend Dr. Long and staff to anybody.
I’m extremely happy with my treatment, I truly have been blessed to have been referred to Dr. Long and his associates. Very professional atmosphere, amazing staff! If you’re not seeing Dr. Long you’re really missing out.
Dr. Steve and his team are amazing. We moved here from the Bay Area, and of course it’s hard to find a good chiro! They are the best and are so so so good would athletes that are younger as well!<br><br>Thank you
20+ years of working in a military and law enforcement capacity really does a number on your body. Apparently, the mindset of “suck it up” doesn’t favor so well in the long run! After multiple procedures on my back, continuous migraines, and neck and hip pain, I finally made the decision to seek help outside of the typical recommendations of anti inflammatory drugs and pointless physical therapy. I could not be happier with my results, and I wish I started a loooonng time ago. My back is a night and day difference these days, and my headaches are few and far between, and this all happened in less than a year. Dr. Long is the man, and his entire office is top notch. Thanks to you all!<br>If you’re in LE/Fire or had a career in the military, etc, please do yourself a favor and stop sucking it up! Give these guys a call, your body will thank you!
I love these guys, they’re always so kind, responsive and understanding. They do a wonderful job of greeting everyone who walks through the door remembering everyone’s name from the 1st visit. Make you feel like part of their little family. Also today they had a dog, that earns an extra star.
I'm a newer patient but I am very pleased with Dr Long and his staff! I appreciate the way he explains his care and develops a transparent treatment plan that will last for a specific amount of time. I am feeling better already and it's showing! His staff are super warm and friendly, always willing to work with my schedule. Highly recommend this team!
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Steve at Town Center Family Chiropractic in El Dorado Hills. He did a very thorough evaluation, took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process. But what really impressed me was that he even followed up that evening to check on how I was feeling and if I had any questions. The office staff is just as great professional, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. Dr. Steve and his team truly go above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
This team is simply AMAZING! Very professional too and are always courteous putting the needs of their patients first. Dr. Steve Long is also the top doc in my care team circle for sure. He’s helped me understand the importance of Chiropractic Care in such a positive way that I throughly enjoy finding myself in conversations with friends and family trying to do the same when they share information on their aches and pains with me. I hope more and more people discover the same and most importantly feel the benefits of how maintaining proper alignment will contribute to increased overall health and wellbeing.
Dr. Steve is a generous practitioner and has always shown the rare skills of a listening brain, a gentle approach and a deep understanding for both athletic and less athletic people.
Dr. Steve is fantastic! I first visited a few years ago for back issues and fully recovered thanks to his expert care. Now I’m back for neck pain and already seeing great improvement. Dr. Steve is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about his patients’ health.<br><br>The clinic is clean and welcoming, and the staff is always friendly and professional. Scheduling is easy and they’re great about accommodating changes. Highly recommended if you’re looking for quality chiropractic care!
Dr. Steve is an exceptional chiropractor and a truly caring provider. He’s available when you need him most, and his entire staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommend!
I love Town Center Family Chiropractic. So much so that I drive almost an hour to get there. Dr. Steven is super informative and the staff is really nice. Thanks for keeping my family and me aligned.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dr. Steve is fantastic!<br>Came in feeling like a pretzel, left feeling like a person again. Dr. Steve is skilled, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. He explained everything clearly and made the whole process surprisingly enjoyable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a chiropractor who knows what he’s doing and makes you laugh.
Always feel cared for in a professional, friendly environment. Recently I had been feeling generally not-great much of the time… for months. Often like the beginnings of the flu, but then just lingering with frequent sinus & ear congestion. Immediately after adjusting my diet and my first adjustment, I felt noticeably better. Keeping to my new habits, i have felt great for a week… first time in months!! THANK YOU TCF Chiropractic!
Had my very first appointment with Town Center Family Chiropractic, and it was awesome. Dr. Steve took plenty of time to review my physical situation, read some test results that I had brought for him to review, and gave me his honest assessment of what he thinks would be the best course of action going forward. No pressure at all as to what he thinks I should do, just honest, straight forward information given so that I can make an informed decision on my care. I can not wait for my next appointment with Dr. Steve. Extremely happy and satisfied with my visit today.
Staff is friendly and professional. Dr. Long is an excellent chiropractor who clarifies everything he does. By being clear he is calming to his patients
Dr. Steve and his staff are amazing. My two young children and family are all patients of Dr. Steve. He even has a children’s chiropractor table (shaped like Nemo) and toys for children; I never thought my kids would enjoy going to the chiropractor, but they love visiting Dr. Steve! The care their team provides is extraordinary. Dr. Steve is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Their staff are very accommodating to their patients needs. I have been a patient of several chiropractors over the years, and none is better than Dr. Steve.
Back in 2005 i was in a car accident. I began seeing Dr. Steve right away and after a couple months of treatments, I was healed! No pain! Since then, anytime life happens (or in the latest case of going on most of the rides at Disneyland), I see him straight away and continue to live pain-free! He has a very caring and professional demeanor and the staff are fantastic-friendly, efficient, and accommodating!
My rating of Town Center Family Chiropractic is not only 5, but 500! You all are professional, friendly, and fun. Ed and I will be lifetime loyal to you all! Thank you for all your help and support guidance! Dr Steve, Kaileen, Lynette, Amberly - Kudos to you all! I would highly recommend you to my friends and family🙂
Dr Steve is a true blessing. He is intelligent, passionate, and kind. Highly recommend for anyone- especially athletes, you’ll appreciate his knowledge! You’re the best, Dr Steve!
Dr. Young and staff have provided exception service to me over the years. Where exceptional medical care seems to be becoming a rarity, I don’t find this to be the case with this office. I’m sure you’ll find this to be the same for you. You’ll find relief here. Be well.
El Dorado Hills Town Center Family Chiropractic are truly top notch! Their name says it all—they truly do take care of our entire family. Everything from their ability to listen, assess, customer service, scheduling availability—they are all 10’s in our book! …Well, if getting technical on Google, 5’s but truly perfection! We highly recommend Dr. Steve! Thank you for all you do! 🙏😉 -Josh and Family
I have been a patient of Dr. Steven Long for over 10 years. He is the best Chiropractor in El Dorado county as well as Sac county. Is overall attention to your general well being is always a priority! If you want to stay healthy all year long and keep your body moving in the proper, functional way, he’s your Chiro!!
Dr. Steve and his whole staff are just phenomenal! My daughter and I were in a hit and run accident in January and were both in so much pain. Dr. Steve got us all fixed up with regular chiropractor care, at home exercises and him and his staff members all made sure that our paperwork was always thorough and complete for our attorney.<br><br>Communication here is fantastic and we always truly felt like we mattered, cared for, and were always welcome when we were visiting. Now that our accident and lawsuit are in the settlement stages, I've decided to still see Dr. Steve once a month on their monthly plan. I believe In good chiropractor care and I've definitely found the one!
Always a pleasure to visit this clinic. I always receive great care, effective treatments, and safe and comfortable adjustments. Both my wife and daughter love this clinic and are regular customers.
Been seeing Dr Steve for 15 years now. Helped me with a serious issue that other chiropractors could not fix. Has helped keep me healthy and standing strait ever since!
