What to look for in a Chiropractor

01/18/2016 By Michael E Roccaforte, DC 21 Comments

If you live in Denver, CO and you’re looking for a Denver Chiropractor, this blog post will give you a wealth of information in making the right choice!

Experience & Qualifications

Doctors of Chiropractic have some of the most stringent educational and licensing requirements in the healthcare industry.

Chiropractors are educated in nationally accredited, four-year doctoral graduate school programs  through a curriculum that includes a minimum of 4,200 hours of classroom, laboratory and clinical internship,  with the average DC program equivalent in classroom hours to allopathic (MD) and osteopathic (DO) medical schools.   In addition, Chiropractors can pursue specialties in orthopedics, neurology, pediatrics and sports rehabilitation.

This extensive education prepares doctors of chiropractic to diagnose health care problems, treat the problems when they are within their scope of practice and refer patients to other health care practitioners when appropriate.

Treatment of Specific Condition

As a Denver Chiropractor I have helped many people like with a broad range of conditions.  Chiropractic can help treatment for  a vast variety of conditions including, but not limited to headaches, migraines, neck pain, back pain, sciatica, hip pain, knee pain, tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, shoulder disorders, TMJ syndrome, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, carpal
tunnel syndrome, scoliosis, sports strains, scar reduction and enhanced sports performance. Chiropractic care can extend outside muscle and joint issue to provide treatment and guidance to overall health. Chiropractors can provide direction on nutrition, dietary support, supplementation, ergonomics, exercises and stretches for additional preventative care.

Modalities of chiropractic care utilizes a variety of protocols and therapies proven clinically effective such as (but not limited to) multiple chiropractic manipulation techniques, cold laser therapy, therapeutic ultrasound, infrared sauna therapy, physiotherapies, nutritional counseling, kinesiology taping techniques, myofascial release techniques
and neuromuscular re-education.

Bedside Manner of Denver Chiropractor

It is important to feel comfortable and have a good rapport with your chiropractor for a positive experience.  You need to feel at ease to discuss your present issues as well as any chronic health and wellness which may be on your mind. M3 Chiropractic believes in a strong doctor-patient relationship providing patient education, a balanced active and functional rehabilitation for acute and chronic symptoms and issues.

I’ve had a thriving Denver Chiropractic Practice for several years…And I’d be happy to help you reach your healthcare and wellness goals.  Call me at (303) 539-9362 or sent an email to info@m3chiropractic.com.

    My boyfriend sees a chiropractor for his back pain and each visit helps him heal faster. I had no idea how experienced each chiropractor is. It’s great that they are so skilled in their field and know different techniques and therapies to help. Thanks!

      Annie, I’m glad you found my blog posting informative and an ‘eye-opener’. For a long time now the general public has been mislead or misinformed about Chiropractic Medicine. Thank you for the feedback. If there is anything I can do to help or you have any questions just give us a call, 303-539-9362.

    Hi Michael, it is a very informative blog I have come across. Recently, I went to the chiropractor for the treatment of my back pain and I was so amazed after the first session that almost half of my pain was magnified. Chiropractors are so skilled and also perform their duties so well.

      Jerry,
      I had the same experience my first time through a reputable Chiropractor’s office. He did such a wonderful job on my neck injury I was convinced to go back to school and become a Chiropractor myself. He is now one of my mentor’s.

      Keep up the good work with alternative care.

      Regards, Dr. Roccaforte

    That’s good to know that you can always find chiropractic services that deal with specific conditions. I have a brother who suffers from lower back and sciatica pain, so it’s possible the he could benefit from a chiropractor that is well trained in dealing with sciatica pain. I’ll have to talk with my brother and see if we can find a good chiropractic service that fits his needs. I appreciate the information!

    This is some great information, and I appreciate your suggestion to find a chiropractor that can treat your specific condition. I recently had surgery on my arm, and I want to visit a chiropractor so I can regain full rotation. I’ll definitely make sure that wherever I go, they are able to help me with my specific problem. Thanks for the great post!

    Wow, I never realized chiropractors have to go through so much training! 4,200 hours is a lot of time spent learning and practicing. I’ve had bad migraines for a few years, now, but I never realized I could get it fixed through a good chiropractor. I’ll have to check and see if there is a good one in my area that could help me out. After all this time, I really want to find a solution to my headaches!

    I am an athlete and I’ve always been on the look out for a Sports Chiropractor that could help me on my everyday pain. As known, we are always exposed to constant body activities and someone have advised me that Chiropractors can help. I’ve also learned that most professional athletes seek help from them for optimum body efficiency.

    It’s good to know what to look for in a chiropractor. I’d definitely want a chiropractor who is experienced with at least 4,200 hours of experience in that line of work. My brother just got in a car accident, so I’ll let him know about this.

    Lately, my husband has been experiencing some lower back pain. We want to help him find the right chiropractor to provide some relief. As you suggested, we’ll be sure to look for someone that is properly educated and has their certification for the job.

    My wife was in a car accident a couple of weeks ago, and has been having pain ever since, so we’ve been considering hiring chiropractic services. I like that you talked about choosing a chiropractor who has good bedside manner and who you are comfortable with throughout the whole experience. I’m going to have to see if we can find a reputable chiropractor and hopefully get my wife some relief from the pain she’s been dealing with!

    I agree that it’s key to find a chiropractor that has years of experience and the right qualifications. Asking for a referral is one of the best ways to find a good one.

    My friend has been experiencing pain and discomfort in his lower back but specialists couldn’t find any underlying medical conditions that could cause it. In the light of these circumstances, he asked me for any recommendations and we are currently looking for alternatives for his condition. If we are to go with chiropractic care, it would only make sense to have a chiropractor that is experienced and knows just the right treatment for his condition.

    Thanks for your tip to look for chiropractors who have studied their field well and have received degrees in it too. I like how you said that they should be able to work with all sorts of back and shoulder pains. I am looking into qualified and well-trained chiropractors for back pain that I’ve been experiencing.

    I never realized chiropractors have to go through so much training as almost 5000 hours is a lot of time spent learning and practicing. My brother has just got into a car accident, and we were advised to find a chiropractor for him to help him recover sooner. I hope that we will find a skilled and experienced specialist who could ease his pains and make him move smoothly again!

    My husband has been experiencing a lot of back pain and we have been wondering how to find a great chiropractic clinic to get help from. So I like your suggestion to find a specialist that you can talk to easily and feel comfortable with. Since we’ll be putting my husband’s welfare in the chiropractic specialist’s hand, we will definitely find one that we feel comfortable talking with.

    My wife is looking for a chiropractor to help with some back pains she’s been having, but she isn’t sure where to start. I didn’t realize that chiropractors go through a minimum of 4,200 hours of classroom training. We’ll be sure to ask if the chiropractors here are this qualified so we know they can treat the problem right. Thanks for sharing.
