Chiropractic Care in Colorado Springs, CO

Our Colorado Springs clinic on North Academy Boulevard has licensed chiropractors on site, working alongside pain physicians, physical therapists and acupuncturists. If you are looking for a chiropractor in Colorado Springs, you can book directly — no referral is needed.

Colorado Springs patients most often see our chiropractors for lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica and nerve pain, headaches and migraines, joint dysfunction, and whiplash after a car accident. Your adjustments are tailored to what your exam shows and what you are comfortable with, from traditional hands-on adjusting to low-force and instrument-assisted techniques.

What makes chiropractic care here different is what sits behind it. If your adjustments help but progress stalls, your chiropractor can bring in a physical therapist for strengthening work or coordinate with a pain physician for imaging — in the same building, on the same chart, without a new referral or a repeated history. Most patients never need that next step, but the path is already in place.

We serve central and east Colorado Springs, including the Academy Boulevard corridor. Learn more about our chiropractic care approach, see our Colorado Springs chiropractic clinics, or read about car accident chiropractic care.

Physical Therapy in Colorado Springs, CO

Our Colorado Springs clinic on North Academy Boulevard has licensed physical therapists on site. Colorado is a direct access state, which means you can begin physical therapy here without a physician referral — bring your insurance card and book.

Colorado Springs patients come to our physical therapists for lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica, knee pain, shoulder pain, post-operative recovery, sports and work injuries, and loss of balance or mobility. Sessions are one-on-one, and your plan is built around what you need to get back to doing.

Because your physical therapist works in the same clinic as your chiropractor and your pain physician, your plan can change as you progress — imaging ordered, manual care added, an interventional option considered — without a referral out or a repeated history. The whole team reads one chart.

Acupuncture in Colorado Springs, CO

Our Colorado Springs clinic on North Academy Boulevard offers acupuncture alongside pain management, chiropractic care and physical therapy. No referral is needed, and most major plans, Medicare and Colorado Medicaid are accepted.

Colorado Springs patients most often choose acupuncture for chronic pain that has not fully settled with other treatment, nerve pain and neuropathy, headaches and migraines, neck and back pain, and the muscle tension that builds up around a long-standing injury.

Acupuncture here is not a standalone service. It sits inside the same treatment plan as your physical therapy, chiropractic care and medical pain management, documented on the same chart — so your acupuncturist knows what your imaging showed and what your physical therapist is working on.

N Academy Blvd is one of three Mountain View Pain Center clinics in Colorado Springs, alongside InterQuest to the north and Tenderfoot Hill to the south. For how we diagnose and treat a specific problem across all three — back pain, neck pain, sciatica, hip and knee pain in Colorado Springs — including which conditions call for an injection and which do not.

Conditions We Treat in Colorado Springs

Most people arrive here having already tried rest, ibuprofen and a few weeks of hoping it would settle. Here is what we actually do about the problems we see most often on Academy Boulevard.

Back Pain in Colorado Springs

Low back pain is the single most common reason people come to this clinic. The examination separates a mechanical problem — a joint that has stopped moving properly, a muscle guarding an old injury — from a disc under load or a nerve root under real pressure. That distinction decides everything after it: manual treatment and rehabilitation for the first, imaging and possibly an injection for the second. We can order imaging from this office rather than sending you across town and asking you to come back next week.

Neck Pain and Cervicogenic Headaches

Neck pain that refers into the shoulder blade, and headaches that start at the base of the skull and get mistaken for migraine, usually trace back to the upper cervical joints. Both respond well to manual treatment combined with the postural work that stops them returning — which matters if you spend your day at a desk or behind a windshield.

Sciatica and Nerve Pain

Pain that travels below the knee, or arrives with numbness, tingling or weakness, is a nerve problem rather than a muscle one, and it is treated differently. Where a nerve root is genuinely compressed, a diagnostic nerve block does two jobs at once: it identifies which level is responsible, and it relieves the pain while rehabilitation does the longer-term work.

Shoulder, Hip and Knee Pain

Joint pain that has not settled after six weeks is worth having examined properly. The physicians here treat joints as well as spines, including image-guided injections for shoulders, hips and knees, and physical therapy in the same suite handles the strength and mechanics that let the joint tolerate load again.

All of it happens at 3204 N Academy Blvd, Suite 300. Pain management physicians, chiropractors and physical therapists work from the same chart, so nobody re-takes your history and no one is sent across town for the next step.
