Serving Golden from Wheat Ridge
We are at 44th and Sheridan in Wheat Ridge, a straight run east on 44th Avenue from Golden. Downtown to our door is about eighteen minutes.
Golden is the longest drive of any area we serve, and we would rather put that at the top of the page than bury it. Here is what it actually costs you in time.
| Where you are in Golden | Route | Drive |
|---|---|---|
| Applewood and east Golden | 32nd Ave east, Sheridan south | 12 min |
| Downtown and Washington Ave | W 44th Ave east | 18 min |
| Colorado School of Mines | 19th St to 44th Ave east | 18 min |
| North Golden and Hwy 93 | Hwy 58 east, I-70 east | 18 min |
| Lookout Mountain and Genesee | I-70 east to Harlan | 22 min |
| Golden Gate Canyon | Hwy 93 south, 44th east | 25 to 30 min |
Eighteen minutes each way is not a drive anyone makes for a routine crick in the neck, and Golden has perfectly good chiropractors. The people who come to us from Golden are almost always doing it for a specific reason: a crash that needs documenting properly, a stubborn soft tissue problem that has not responded to adjustment alone, or because they want needling, cupping and hands-on work from the same provider in the same visit. If that is not your situation, book closer to home with our blessing.
Golden is far enough that nobody drives here by accident. The patients who do make the trip are usually after one of four things.
Adjustment, soft tissue work, dry needling and cupping happen in the same visit with the same provider, rather than being split across three appointments or referred out. See what that looks like.
You will not be asked to prepay for six months before anyone has touched your back. Care runs as long as it is doing something and stops when it is not.
Dr. Andrew Allen trained at Palmer College of Chiropractic after a kinesiology and exercise science background, and spent years teaching human anatomy and physiology. You will get the actual explanation. More about Dr. Allen.
If your injury came from a crash, the notes matter as much as the treatment. We document properly and coordinate with your attorney when there is one. Car accident injury care.
Geography shapes injuries. The Golden patients we see cluster into a handful of familiar patterns.
US 6, Highway 93, Highway 58, Washington Avenue and the I-70 interchange produce most of the crash patients we see from Golden. The canyon roads produce fewer but worse ones. If you have been in one, two things are worth knowing.
Feeling fine is not the same as being fine. Soft tissue injuries frequently take twenty four to seventy two hours to declare themselves, and adrenaline at the scene hides a great deal. Getting assessed early creates a baseline, which matters clinically and matters again later if there is a claim.
The paperwork is part of the treatment. Injury care that is not documented properly is worth less to you at every stage. We keep records built for that, and we coordinate with your attorney when you have one. If you do not, that is fine too. You do not need a referral and you do not need a lawyer to be seen.

No, and Golden is a real drive from us. The clinic is in Wheat Ridge at 44th and Sheridan, about eighteen minutes east of downtown Golden. We see Golden patients regularly, but we will not pretend we are round the corner.
Roughly eighteen minutes from downtown or the Mines campus, twelve from Applewood, and up to half an hour from Golden Gate Canyon. The table further up this page has it by area.
Often, yes. We hold room for same day and next day appointments, which matters most after a car accident or when something has locked up overnight. Call or text (303) 351-0744 and we will tell you honestly what is open.
Neither. You can book directly. If you already have an attorney we will coordinate with them, and if you do not, we will still document your care the way it needs to be documented. More on car accident injury care.
No. There are no contracts and no prepaid packages here. We treat what is in front of us, tell you what we think it will take, and stop when you are done. Here is what a first visit actually looks like. See the full FAQ.
