Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is one of the oldest practices in healthcare. It is the physical manipulation of muscle and soft tissue through a variety of techniques. Ultimately, multiple body systems including the muscular, skeletal, lymphatic, nervous, circulatory, and immune system can show positive results, and has the ability to improve emotional wellbeing and decrease stress.
Post-Trauma Injury Massage
When you are injured in any sort of accident, your body experiences a level of trauma as well. Massage for injury and post-trauma symptoms can be an effective component of your healing. This type of massage focuses on both the mental and physical recovery.
Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage is the most general and introductory style of massage. It is known for leaving you completely relaxed. The focus of a Swedish Massage is geared more towards an overall wellness and relaxation.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a very common type of massage. It focuses on a specific area of the body. During the massage itself, the therapist will apply long strokes of deep pressure along the muscle fibers. Using these deep tissue techniques, the therapist can actually realign the deepest layers of muscle tissue, attachment points and fascia, which is the protective sheath surrounding them.
Prenatal Massage
Prenatal Massage is one of the best ways to support the health of a mother and her unborn child. This massage technique will help you release your stress and anxiety while also relieving a lot of your pregnancy discomfort.
Sports Massage
Whether you are a weekend warrior or you are playing for the Denver Broncos, athletes at all levels should be taking advantage of a Sports Massage service. Your session will be customized to your individual requirements.
Trigger Point Therapy
A Trigger Point can feel like a tiny “knot” under your skin. These knots are a part of your skeletal muscle. They are most commonly located in certain points throughout the belly of the muscle tissue.
Structural Integration
The term “pinched nerve” is somewhat of a catch-all phrase that is commonly used to describe the pain associated with a variety of conditions from subluxations, to tunnel syndromes to the referred pain from trigger points. Most of the time, what is called a pinched nerve is actually an irritated, or inflamed nerve where the nerve itself is not actually pinched.
Aromatherapy & Essential Oils
Aromatherapy Massage combines the qualities of Therapeutic Massage with the natural healing that Essential Oils can provide. The essential oils are highly concentrated oils compressed from the plants themselves and are mixed with a carrier oil and used topically on the body.
I have been seeing Dr. Scott for several years. He helped me through 2 awful car accidents. I would highly recommend him as he has helped me get back on my feet and now I only have to do check-ins a couple times a year(which is an improvement from daily after my accidents)! He is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to get to know you as a patient so that he can assist you with your recovery in the best way possible!

This guy is insanely good. Or maybe its because other chiropractors in Fort Collins are all so bad, but I went in with a dislocated rib and winged scapula and he loosened my spine up and went to work. I’m going in for a second session tomorrow but I already feel tremendous improvement in my back/shoulder. He doesn’t do light adjustments – he gets in there and fixes it with immense effectiveness (yes, the cracking will be loud).

Fantastic! Yesterday was my first time ever seeing a chiropractor. Dr. Scott is very knowledgable and is excitable to have conversation with. He definitely treated me like a patient (like a doctor should) but the conversations were also personal, which made me feel easy. There was an issue with my medical card so I had to pay for it with a gift card. Once I called the company and came back to the office, Dr. Scott was very quick to take care of the refund and charge the correct card. Not one minute was a bad experience. Thank you!
