Mountain View Pain Center provides pain management in Colorado Springs from three 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.

Our three Colorado Springs clinics

• Colorado Springs Central — N Academy Blvd: our central-city clinic, closest to downtown and the Patty Jewett and Knob Hill neighborhoods.

• Colorado Springs North — InterQuest: serving the north side, Briargate, and Monument.

• Colorado Springs South — Tenderfoot Hill Rd: serving the south side, Broadmoor, Fountain, and Security-Widefield.

All three clinics offer pain management, physical therapy, and chiropractic care under one roof, so you are not driving across town between appointments.

Conditions we treat

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 and Low Back Pain in Colorado Springs

Back pain is the most common reason people come to our three 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 programme 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 in Colorado Springs

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 available at all three clinics when imaging and examination point to a specific pain generator.

Sciatica in Colorado Springs

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 here, 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 in Colorado Springs

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 available at all three Colorado Springs clinics.

Knee and Joint Pain in 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.

Treatments available in Colorado Springs

• Interventional pain management — diagnostic and therapeutic injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency ablation performed by board-certified physicians.

• Physical therapy — hands-on treatment and progressive exercise that rebuilds strength and keeps pain from returning.

• Chiropractic care — adjustments and soft-tissue work for spine and joint pain.

• Acupuncture — a drug-free option for pain, headaches, and muscle tension.

Hurt in a car accident in Colorado Springs?

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, what to expect from a chiropractor after a car accident, and personal injury chiropractic care, or read our guide to whiplash treatment.

Paying for care

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.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a referral to be seen?

For most plans, no — you can book directly. A few plans require a referral, and our front desk will tell you when you call.

How soon can I get an appointment?

New patients are usually seen within a few days, and sooner for recent injuries.

Will I be put on opioids?

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.

Do you take Tricare?

Yes. We see active-duty service members, veterans, and military families across all three Colorado Springs clinics.
