"As chiropractors, we get to help people who suffer from a variety of health issues. Naturally, chiropractors help traditional back and neck pain, but chiropractic has also produced wonderful results with a variety of other health problems including headaches, acid reflux, shoulder pain, hip pain, sinus problems, ear infections, etc. Newborns, seniors and everyone in between can benefit." Dr. Leah McAlpine
November 12, 2011 - The garage will be coming down in the next month to create a larger parking area. On some nights there has been congestion in the existing lot and the new lot should allow for an additional 5-8 spots. Pardon our dust.
February 20, 2011 - Since moving to our new location we are again able to offer massage. This is being performed by Pamela Moore, a 15 year certified massage therapist (CMT). Currently first time massage appointments are $55 for a FULL 60 MINUTE massage. Most hour massage appointments only consist of 50 minutes actual therapy time. Massage and chiropractic pair extremely well together and have a potentiating synergistic effect (1+1=more than 2). Call Tammie or Carla to schedule your massage with Pam today. If not today check back as we will be offering deeper discounts on massage this spring.
Make it a great day!
January 16, 2011 - As chiropractors we are required to take yearly continuing education courses. This weekend I (Dr. Jim) am attending an upper extremity adjusting class and after getting thru the 1st day I'm already very excited to get in the office on Monday and use some of my new evaluations and techniques with patients. These new skills I am acquiring will be very helpful diagnosing shoulder issues (frozen shoulder, impingement, nerve entrapment, etc.), carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS), costoclavicular syndrome, hand numbness/weakness, etc. I am also learning techniques and exercises to rehab these various conditions. See ya Monday!
January 15, 2011 - Not just when you feel thirsty, by then you are already dehydrated. Many of the issues we see in our office on a regular basis (headaches, constipation, muscle soreness, etc.) can be greatly affected by water intake or lack thereof. As a general baseline for water intake I recommend people to take their weight in pounds divide by 2 and drink that many ounces per day. This would be for the average person, if you are highly active you would need to drink more.

January 13, 2011 - After our initial "soft" opening on October 4th we had our Grand Opening on December 5th. This was tied in with our 2nd annual Santa Day which included free pictures with Santa. This in collaboration with Toys for Tots. Altogether, we were able to donate over 50 toys. Wishing all a great year in 2011.
We've Moved
November 9th, 2010 - Alpine Chiropractic has finally moved to our new location at 11990 Colorado Blvd. in Thornton and we have added massage to better serve our patients needs! First time massages are only $ 55.00. Call the office to make your appointments!
Eat Organic when possible
August 11, 2010 - It is so important to be aware of what we put into our bodies and eating organic is the best way to implement that. Even though organic can be expensive, many grocery stores have sales weekly on their organic items. If you are to eat one thing organic, make it butter! Butter has the highest amount of pesticides than any other food that is non-organic.
July 21, 2010 - With school fast approaching, make sure your kids are using the proper backpacks. There are backpacks available with lumbar support and if you have any questions, feel free to ask either Dr. Hoffman or Dr. McAlpine. It is very important that our children's spines are being properly supported so that they do not have future back problems!
June 2nd, 2010 - One of our very own pediatric patients has been picked as a feature story in the june/july 2010 issue of "Today's Chiropractic" . Aiden has been adjusted since birth and his preventative adjustments have helped him to be the healthy 2 year old that he is today! The adjustments keep his immune system strong and he has never had an ear infection like so many other children his age do. We take care of many babies and children in our office! When was the last time your child's spine been checked?
