Back exercises after adjustments?
Without knowing the extent of your situation (whether it was from trauma, strain, overuse) I could not safely give your recommendations. Please ask your chiropractor for recommendation as it would be negligent of me to give your recommendations without an exam and/or possibly imaging. Your chiropractor should know what is best for you in regards to stretching and exercises...if they are not willing to assist look for a chiropractor or clinic that will offer adjustments as well as exercises and stretching recommendations.

Do chiropractors typically take x-rays?
X-rays are a fairly common practice, but not always necessary (my own opinion). Some that perform X-rays will have X-ray units in their office. I personally do not do X-rays in my clinic, but have sent patients offsite so that we could rule out any contraindications to treatment (accidents, past injuries, etc would be a good reason for X-ray review).
