Our clinics across Colorado Springs.
Mountain View Pain Center provides Pain Management in Colorado Springs from our clinics across the city — Central on N Academy Blvd, North near the InterQuest corridor, and South on Tenderfoot Hill Road. Whichever side of town you're on, you'll find board-certified pain care with Physical Therapy and Chiropractic in the same clinic.
Colorado Springs is a military community, and we proudly accept Tricare, alongside most major plans and focus on non-surgical, opioid-sparing treatment for back pain, neck pain, sciatica, neuropathy, and overuse and service-related injuries. We also serve Monument, Fountain, Security-Widefield, and Manitou Springs.
Spanish-language communication is available at every clinic through real-time translation.

Every clinic offers Pain Management, Physical Therapy, and Chiropractic care under one roof, so you are not driving across town between appointments.
Interventional pain medicine across Colorado is led by Shaun Gabriel, MD, our Medical Director, and Matthew Gray, MD — both double board-certified and fellowship-trained in interventional pain. Every clinic is open Monday to Thursday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Friday, 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Central scheduling is (720) 749-5599.
The Physician Assistants seeing Pain Management patients in Colorado Springs include Julianne Maitski, PA-C at Interquest. The full team is on the Colorado Pain Management providers page.
Hip and groin pain, and what each location of pain points to: hip pain treatment.
Our Colorado Springs pain specialists treat lower back pain, neck pain and headaches, sciatica and radiating leg pain, herniated and degenerative discs, spinal stenosis, arthritis and joint pain, peripheral neuropathy, shoulder and knee pain, and pain that lingers after an injury or surgery.
Back pain is the most common reason people come to our Colorado Springs clinics, and the first visit is a diagnostic one — history, physical examination, and imaging where the findings call for it. "Back pain" names a symptom, not a cause: a disc, a facet joint, the sacroiliac joint and the surrounding muscle can each produce pain in the same spot and each needs a different plan.
Most low back pain is treated without surgery. Physical Therapy restores movement and load tolerance, Chiropractic care addresses joint restriction, and you continue a short program between visits. When conservative care is not enough on its own, our pain physicians can add a diagnostic or therapeutic injection, a nerve block, or radiofrequency ablation — and because they work in the same building as your therapist, the plan changes without a referral out and without repeating your history.
We treat lumbar disc herniation and degeneration, facet joint pain, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, spinal stenosis, muscular low back pain, and back pain that has persisted after surgery.
Neck pain rarely stays in the neck. It refers into the shoulder blade, down the arm, and into the back of the head as a headache, which is why we examine the whole cervical chain rather than only the sore segment. Desk posture, an old whiplash injury and cervical disc degeneration all present differently on examination.
Care usually begins with Chiropractic and Physical Therapy — manual treatment, mobility work, and deep neck flexor strengthening — with Acupuncture as a drug-free option where muscle tension and headache are the dominant complaint. Cervical injections and medial branch blocks are performed at InterQuest when imaging and examination point to a specific pain generator.
Sciatica is pain that travels: from the low back or buttock down the back of the leg, sometimes to the foot, often with numbness, pins and needles, or weakness. The name describes the path, not the source. A lumbar disc pressing on a nerve root, a narrowed foramen, and a tight piriformis all produce it, and the examination is what separates them.
The great majority of sciatica settles without surgery. We start with Physical Therapy aimed at reducing nerve irritation and restoring the movement that provokes it, and Chiropractic care where joint restriction is contributing. If leg pain persists or weakness is progressing, an epidural steroid injection or a selective nerve root block can be performed at our north Colorado Springs clinic on InterQuest, guided by imaging.
Weakness that is getting worse, numbness in the saddle area, or any change in bladder or bowel control is an emergency — go to an emergency department rather than booking with us.
Hip pain is frequently referred pain. A lumbar disc, the sacroiliac joint or a gluteal tendon can each present as pain felt in the hip, so we examine the back and the hip together before treating either. What we see most is hip osteoarthritis, greater trochanteric bursitis, gluteal tendinopathy, and pain referred from the lumbar spine.
Treatment combines Physical Therapy to rebuild hip and core strength with Chiropractic care where the pelvis and lumbar spine are contributing. Where the joint or bursa itself is the problem and conservative care has stalled, an image-guided injection from our pain team is done at InterQuest, our procedure clinic in north Colorado Springs.
Knee pain in Colorado Springs is often load-related — running the Incline, skiing, or standing all day on a hard floor — and it responds to changing how the joint is loaded rather than resting it. We assess the hip and ankle alongside the knee, because a stiff ankle or a weak hip changes what the knee absorbs with every step.
We treat knee osteoarthritis, patellofemoral pain, meniscus irritation, post-operative knee recovery, and arthritis in the shoulder, hand and other joints. Care runs from Physical Therapy and Chiropractic through to therapeutic injection when the joint needs to settle before rehabilitation can progress.
Get evaluated early — whiplash and soft-tissue injuries often feel worse two or three days after the crash. Our Colorado Springs clinics treat motor vehicle injuries daily and can usually see you within a day or two. Learn more about car accident Chiropractic care and personal injury Chiropractic care, or read our guide to whiplash treatment.
We accept Tricare, Medicare, and most major commercial plans, and we handle workers' compensation cases. If you were hurt in a car accident, care is usually billed to auto insurance or med-pay, and in many cases we can treat on a lien so you can start now and settle the bill when your claim resolves. Call and we'll verify your benefits before your first visit.
For most plans, no — you can book directly. A few plans require a referral, and our front desk will tell you when you call.
New patients are usually seen within a few days, and sooner for recent injuries.
Our approach is opioid-sparing. We start with the least invasive options that work — Physical Therapy, Chiropractic, targeted injections — and build a plan around restoring function.
Yes. We see active-duty service members, veterans, and military families across our Colorado Springs clinics.
Yes, along with most major commercial plans, workers' compensation, and auto and lien cases. We verify your specific benefits before your visit.
Photo ID, your insurance card, any prior imaging (on disc or through a patient portal), and a list of your current medications. If you were injured in a crash or at work, bring your claim number.
Plan for a full evaluation rather than a quick check-in. Your physician will take a history, examine you, review imaging, and leave you with a plan before you go.
No. Many patients only ever see one. The advantage of the integrated model is that if you do need another discipline, it is already in the building and already reading the same chart.
Yes. The focus is non-surgical, opioid-sparing care, escalating only when it is needed.
Yes. If a surgeon has recommended an operation, our pain physicians will review your history and the imaging you already have, and go through the non-surgical options first — injections, physical therapy, chiropractic care and spinal decompression among them. Bring any relevant imaging to the first visit. No referral is needed to be seen.
Mechanical back and neck pain — the kind driven by joints, discs, muscles and nerves under load — is treated by Chiropractic and Physical Therapy. Pain that has outlasted those, or that travels into an arm or a leg, is the ground a physiatrist or an interventional pain physician works on; our page on what a physiatrist is sets out the difference. What decides it is not the label on the door but whether someone examines you and identifies the structure producing the pain before treatment starts.
Pain that does not change with position and wakes you at the same time each night. Fever or unexplained weight loss alongside it. Weakness or numbness in a limb that is getting worse. A change in balance or in hand coordination. Any change in bladder or bowel control. Those are reasons for prompt examination rather than for waiting to see whether it passes. Back pain that arrives suddenly with chest pressure or breathlessness is a different problem and belongs in emergency care.
Call (720) 749-5599 or request an appointment to get started.
Treatment follows the diagnosis. A diagnostic block numbs one structure at a time, and the response tells us which one is producing the pain before anything longer-lasting is done.
Alongside these, Physical Therapy, Chiropractic care and Acupuncture run in the same Colorado Springs clinics, so a plan can move between them without a new referral or a repeated history.
Board-certified Pain Management physicians and physician assistants see patients across our Colorado Springs clinics, working alongside the chiropractors, physical therapists and acupuncturists in the same building. You can see who practices where on our Colorado Pain Management providers page, or browse the full provider directory.
Crash injuries follow a different path through the clinic. Care is generally billed to auto medical-payments coverage or on a lien where an attorney is involved, and the documentation is written as the treatment happens rather than assembled afterwards.
See car accident injury treatment in Colorado Springs for how that works, or read about whiplash treatment and seeing a chiropractor after a car accident.
Conditions: sciatica, herniated disc, low back pain, neck pain, knee pain and neuropathy.
