Your pain relief shouldn't be a one-size-fits-all. We offer a variety of treatments personalized to meet your needs. Large and small joint injections, such as the shoulder and knee, are given here in Lafayette by our PAs, along with Dysport (botulinum toxin) injections for cervical dystonia.
Spanish-language communication is available at every clinic through real-time translation.

Chiropractic here is one of four services on a single chart. The chiropractor works in the same building as the physical therapists, the acupuncturist and the Pain Management provider, so the plan fits what the examination found. You can book Chiropractic care on its own, including ongoing adjustments. Colorado does not require a referral to see a chiropractor, and appointments in Lafayette are usually available the same week.
If a car accident is what brought you in, we bill med-pay directly and work on a lien when an attorney is involved, so care for an east Boulder County collision does not have to wait on the claim.
Position-related neck and low back pain in cyclists is a regular part of this clinic's work.
Before anything is adjusted you are examined: range of motion, orthopedic testing, and neurological screening when symptoms travel into a limb. The examination sorts your problem into one of several categories that look identical to the patient and are treated completely differently: a restricted joint, a disc under load, a nerve root with genuine neurological compromise, or something that belongs to a different specialty altogether.
Where imaging should come first, we order it instead of adjusting and hoping. Techniques are Diversified manual adjustment, Activator instrument-assisted adjustment where a manual thrust is unwanted or unwise, and drop-table (Thompson) technique, with soft-tissue and myofascial work and home exercise between visits. Spinal decompression and dry needling are available as modalities alongside adjusting.
See Chiropractic Care for more.
Medicare Part B covers one Chiropractic service: manual manipulation of the spine to correct a subluxation, when it is medically necessary.
Dry needling is available at every Mountain View Pain Center clinic in Colorado and Arizona. It is used as a modality alongside Chiropractic and Physical Therapy, not as a treatment booked on its own.
Spinal decompression is available at every Mountain View Pain Center clinic in Colorado and Arizona. Every clinic has a decompression table, so you are not sent elsewhere for it.
See Dry Needling and Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression for more.
Our Lafayette clinic on Exempla Circle 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.
Lafayette 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 Management provider, your plan can change as you progress (imaging ordered, manual care added) without a referral out or a repeated history. The whole team reads one chart.

Our Lafayette clinic on Exempla Circle offers Acupuncture alongside Pain Management, Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy. No referral is needed, and most major plans are accepted.
Cupping is performed here as well; see cupping therapy.
Lafayette 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.
You can book Acupuncture here on its own. If you also see us for Physical Therapy, Chiropractic care or medical Pain Management, it is documented on the same chart, so your acupuncturist knows what your imaging showed and what your physical therapist is working on.

Back pain is the most common reason people come here, and the first visit is mostly about sorting. Pain that stays in the back and eases with movement is usually mechanical and responds to manual treatment and a loading program. Pain that runs down the leg past the knee, or brings numbness, tingling or weakness with it, points to a nerve root and needs a different plan, sometimes starting with imaging.
Hip pain is often felt in the groin, the outside of the thigh or the buttock, and it is regularly mistaken for a back problem. The examination separates them, which matters because the treatment differs entirely. Where a hip joint is too irritable to begin rehabilitation, an image-guided injection at the nearest MVPC procedure clinic can quiet it enough for the strength work to start.
Headaches that begin at the base of the skull and worsen through the day usually come from the upper cervical joints instead of from anything in the head. They respond well to manual treatment of the neck, and durably only if the desk, driving or sleeping position that produced them changes too.
Your first visit includes a movement evaluation, strength and mobility testing, and a plan with measurable goals plus a home program.
Expect your therapist to test how you move: range of motion, strength, and the specific movements that reproduce or relieve your symptoms. This is usually where the working diagnosis comes from.
Rehab is not linear, but a typical plan looks roughly like this:
Weeks 1–2: calm it down. Reduce the movements that keep provoking the tissue, restore what range of motion is easily available, and get you sleeping better. Some soreness after sessions is normal; sharp, lasting increases are not.
Weeks 2–4: load it up. Progressive strengthening for whatever was underpowered. This is the phase people skip, and it is the phase that determines whether the pain stays gone.
Weeks 4–6: make it stick. Return to the specific activity you came in for, with a maintenance program you can actually keep doing.
If you are not measurably better in the first few weeks, that is information, and the plan should change.
Sciatica and nerve-pain rehab: nerve glides, directional-preference exercise, and graded loading help most radiculopathy patients avoid surgery. Auto accident and whiplash rehab: early active rehab is the standard of care for whiplash, with thorough documentation for injury claims.
See Physical Therapy in Denver, Colorado for more.
Acupuncture is not a treatment for everything, and it is not usually the first thing tried. It earns its place where pain has become persistent, where medication is being avoided or has stopped helping, or where a nerve is involved.
Low back pain is the most studied use and the most common reason people book. It is most often chosen for pain that has settled into a pattern, not acute injury in the first days, and it can be booked on its own or combined with Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy.
Neck pain that comes with muscle guarding and limited rotation often responds well, particularly where the surrounding musculature will not release with manual therapy alone.
Where leg pain is driven by irritation along the sciatic distribution instead of by a disc that needs decompressing, Acupuncture is often used to reduce it. Leg pain with weakness needs a physician, not needles.
Knee pain from osteoarthritis is a common use, usually paired with the loading program that actually changes the joint’s tolerance over time.
Migraine and cervicogenic headache are different problems, and it is worth knowing which one you have before treating it. Acupuncture is used for both, more often as prevention than as rescue.
Pain that has outlasted the tissue healing behind it behaves differently, and the aim shifts from fixing a structure to changing how the system responds. That is where Acupuncture sits most comfortably alongside Pain Management, and where it is worth trying a course instead of a single session before judging it.

Lafayette sits on the commuter line between Boulder County and the north metro, and the collisions follow it.
The injury you have on the night of a crash is rarely the injury you have by Thursday. Swelling and muscle guarding build over roughly forty-eight hours, so the worst morning tends to be the third one.
Book the assessment before that point, even feeling capable. What it captures is a baseline, and a baseline is the only thing that later distinguishes a week-two symptom from an unrelated ache.
Some presentations belong in an emergency department, not here: any loss of consciousness, weakness that is deepening, changes in bladder or bowel control, or severe pain following a rollover or a high-speed impact.
Three billing routes exist: the med-pay benefit on the auto policy, a lien if a lawyer is acting for you, or your own health coverage. Having a lawyer is not a condition of being treated.

It is a smaller site than our metro clinics, which in practice mostly means shorter waits: Pain Management, Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy still work from the same building and the same chart. Conditions treated here include Upper Back Pain, Lower Back Pain, Neck Pain, Nerve Pain, Pelvic Pain, Migraines, Arthritis, Sciatica and More.

This catchment moves a lot, and the injuries reflect that more than they reflect accidents. Cyclists with neck and low back pain that is a position problem instead of an injury. Runners with sacroiliac and hip complaints. Climbers with shoulders and elbows. Skiers in season.
Underneath all of it sits the ordinary desk-related neck and upper back pain that arrives regardless of how active someone is at the weekend.
Overuse injuries are the ones people put off longest, because there is no moment they can point to. They are also the ones that respond best to early examination.
This is an unusual place for a chiropractor to practice, and the difference is mostly about what happens when manual care is not the answer.
A standalone practice that finds something outside its scope has to refer you out and hope you follow through. Here, imaging is close, the Pain Management team is in the same clinic, and Physical Therapy is down the corridor. The handover is a conversation rather than a referral letter.
A recurring presentation here is the knee, shoulder or back that was managed years ago, resolved, and has returned, usually with a different mechanism than the patient assumes. Treating it as a repeat of the old problem is the commonest way to waste six weeks.
Ordinary degenerative spine pain is still the largest single category, and still needs sorting into disc, facet joint or sacroiliac before it is treated. Overuse injuries rarely have a dramatic onset, which is exactly why they get tolerated for months before anyone examines them.
Most pain here resolves with Physical Therapy, manual care, load management and time, all available in this clinic without a new referral.
When the examination and imaging agree on a structure, the interventional options are epidural steroid injection, medial branch block, radiofrequency ablation and sacroiliac joint injection. These procedures are performed at Northglenn, InterQuest and MVSS, our surgery center, and spine injections are also done at Lowry on scheduled days; evaluation and scheduling happen here. Each is diagnostic as well as therapeutic: what happens after a block tells us whether we identified the right structure.
When a case turns out to need a spine surgeon, a rheumatologist or a neurologist, that referral is short and local, not a two-month detour across the metro. And if we do not think a procedure will help, we will say so instead of scheduling it.
