Conditions We Treat in Lakewood

The Union Boulevard clinic sits just south of West 6th Avenue, close enough to Golden, Morrison and the foothills that trail and ski injuries are a steady part of the caseload alongside the everyday ones.

Headaches and Migraines

A large share of the headaches we see are not migraines at all. Pain that starts at the base of the skull, sits on one side, and worsens with a long drive or a long day at a screen usually comes from the upper cervical joints. That distinction matters because the treatment is completely different: cervicogenic headache responds to manual treatment of the neck, while a true migraine needs a different approach altogether. The examination is designed to tell them apart rather than assume.

Back Pain and Sciatica

Low back pain that stays in the back is a different problem from low back pain that travels down the leg. The first usually responds to manual treatment and a loading program. The second means a nerve root is involved, and the plan changes: imaging when the findings warrant it, and sometimes an injection to settle the inflammation enough that rehabilitation can do its work.

Neck Pain

Neck pain that refers into the shoulder blade or down the arm is examined for genuine neurological signs before anyone adjusts anything. Where it is a joint restriction, manual treatment works quickly. Where there is real nerve involvement, we say so and change the plan rather than continuing and hoping.

Knee and Shoulder Pain

Joint pain that has not settled after six weeks deserves a proper examination rather than more rest. Our physicians can order imaging from this office and perform image-guided injections when a joint needs quieting, and the physical therapy that restores the mechanics happens in the same suite.

The clinic is at 165 S Union Blvd, Suite 400, Lakewood, serving Lakewood, Golden, Wheat Ridge, Morrison and the west Denver metro.

How Our Pain Experts Can Help You

The Union Boulevard clinic sits close enough to Golden, Morrison and the foothills that trail and ski injuries turn up alongside the everyday desk-and-driving complaints. Both get the same start: an examination that establishes whether the problem is mechanical, inflammatory or nerve-related before anyone decides what to do about it. Conditions treated here include:

Chiropractic Care and Pain Treatment in Lakewood, CO

Looking for a chiropractor in Lakewood, CO? Our Lakewood clinic on S Union Blvd combines chiropractic care with physical therapy, acupuncture, and board-certified pain management in one building, so you are not driving between providers who never talk to each other.

We serve Lakewood, Golden, Wheat Ridge, Morrison, and the west Denver metro. Most major insurance is accepted, and we will verify your benefits before the first visit.

Physical Therapy in Lakewood, CO

Our Lakewood clinic on South Union 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.

Lakewood 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.

We serve Lakewood, Belmar, Green Mountain, Golden and Morrison. Learn more about our physical therapy approach, read our comparison of chiropractic care versus physical therapy, or see physical therapy across the metro.

Acupuncture in Lakewood, CO

Our Lakewood clinic on South Union 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.

Lakewood 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.

We serve Lakewood, Belmar, Green Mountain, Golden and Morrison. Learn more about our acupuncture approach, read acupuncture versus dry needling, or see acupuncture across the metro.
