Northgate Family Chiropractic North Colorado Springs
Northgate Family Chiropractic opened its doors in 2018 and has been serving the people of Colorado Springs ever since, from an office at 12245 Voyager Pkwy, Suite 124. The practice describes what it does as Health-Centered Chiropractic care, with a focus on finding the root cause of health issues rather than just covering up symptoms and on removing anything interfering with the body's ability to heal naturally. The team says chiropractic is about more than neck pain, back pain, and headaches, because the brain and nervous system control every function in the body and misalignments in the spine put stress on that system, which can lead to pain and dysfunction. Adult care centers on Structural Correction, where the doctors look at the spine as a whole and build a plan for long term correction instead of quick fixes, much the way braces straighten teeth. That process has let the office take on difficult cases including reversed cervical curvature, scoliosis in both children and adults, spondylolisthesis, spinal surgeries and fusions, torticollis, fibromyalgia, spinal fractures, Chiari malformations, muscle wasting, and hyper-kyphosis. Correction is delivered through safe and specific adjustments, spinal exercises before and after each treatment, and at-home rehab, with regular progress x-rays through the corrective phase and a correction review at the end of the recommended plan. The office also specializes in pediatric care, seeing children of all ages from birth to adulthood, where the focus shifts from pain to healthy growth and development, and in prenatal care, using gentle adjustments and modalities like the Webster Technique to support expecting mothers. Getting started takes three visits: an evaluation with consultation, history, examination, and any necessary x-rays, then a first adjustment, then a review of x-rays and a personalized plan of care. On cost, the practice publishes a transparent schedule that starts with a New Patient Special at $52 for the first visit, normally $130, and it accepts most government-issued Medicare, works with the VA, provides superbills for other plans, and takes HSA and FSA payments. The team is led by owner Dr. Marc Nickens alongside patient care coordinator Katie, patient care assistant Sidney, and marketing and communications coordinator Samantha, and the office promises to be honest and transparent, serve patients with kindness and respect, take good care of the whole family, and make people feel seen and heard.
