We often get questions at our office about insurance coverage for chiropractic care. Here at Body In Motion we're not currently "in-network" for any private insurance plans; however, that doesn't mean that you can't take advantage of health savings programs to cover the cost of your care. Many insurance plans and coverage programs these days either include or are eligible to be linked with a Health Savings Account, or HSA. Recently, we sat down with Joel Lee from HealthMarkets to find out more about how you can make the most of your health savings dollars.
Read MoreAs Colorado residents we're always very proud of the fact that we're one of the most active areas in the country. We have abundant opportunities at our doorstep to get outside and run, bike or climb in pretty much any direction we choose. The other advantage that we're now seeing come into full bloom is the boom of fitness and training options available to us in the front range. From high-intensity interval training classes, spin classes and climbing gyms to yoga, pilates and barre fitness studios there is an option on seemingly every block to keep us moving without ever having to battle I-70 traffic to the mountains.
Read MoreOne of the things we hear at least once a week in our practice is "my back is really sore, I think I need a new mattress". Though some of the time this may be the case, the biggest culprit for sleep related aches and pains can actually be a much more affordable fix: your pillow.
Read MoreContrary to popular belief, we didn't just pick this tape for the designs. At Body in Motion we use Dynamic Tape because it truly is the best functional tape on the market. The tape itself is made up of a stretchy blend of lycra and nylon, compared with that of traditional kinesiology tapes that are primarily made of cotton. These materials allow for a 4-way stretch in all directions instead of only two. Dynamic Tape can also stretch to 200% of its resting length and has many times the resistance and recoil of traditional K-tape products.

Many times people with these conditions think that they just have to wait it out, take some medications and avoid any activities that cause the pain.

Read MoreIf you've been to a chiropractor who does a lot of soft tissue work, you might have noticed a tray of oddly shaped instruments made of either metal or bone lying around. Have you ever wondered what those crazy looking things are for? At Body in Motion we utilize a set of tools for a treatment technique called Graston. The Graston Technique, combined with the principles taught in the FAKTR Method help us treat soft tissue disorders like plantar fasciitis, IT-Band Syndrome, shin splints and many more.
Read MoreOur main goal at Body In Motion is to have your leave our office feeling and moving better than when you arrived; however, as much as we rely on the power of the chiropractic adjustment, we are well aware that to provide complete and efficient care for every patient, we need more than that in our arsenal. One of the tools that we use quite a bit is called Advanced Muscle Integration Technique, or AMIT. This method helps us identify muscular instabilities in your body that could potentially lead to injury.
