About Dr. Mike
Dr. Mike has been helping members of his community achieve better health naturally without drugs or surgery since he received his Doctorate degree from Parker in 1996. His desire to help others with Chiropractic care started from his own life changing chiropractic experience as a child. Since that time, his goal and mission has been to help improve, change, and save lives through Chiropractic. If everyone new and understood how powerful their spine (their bodies lifeline) was, they would take care of it with the highest priority.

Cervical Extension Traction Protocol as well as "Reverse Posture Exercises" are combined with Specific Adjustments in order for Predictable Spinal Corrective Results to be obtained. PSC is a very safe, comfortable adjustment.
Dr. Mike's Chiropractic Story
When I was 11-years young, I joined the local little league football team. On one of the first practices, we were learning how to use proper form while tackling. I went to make a tackle and my head was pushed back and compressed into my shoulders. I immediately stopped breathing and collapsed. Luckily, my coach was right there and was able to bring me out of it.
I was quickly taken to the medical doctor. The MD asked me a couple questions and that was it. He didn’t check my spine or do any examination. He told us that I was a completely normal kid and nothing was wrong.
My mother had a sense that the MD had missed something vital, so she took me to several different MD’s for second opinions and they all said the same thing (not once ever checking my spine). I was cleared to go back to football practice.
With permission from the MD’s, I went back to practice. The first day back at practice and with my first tackle, the exact same thing happens again. I then stopped breathing and collapsed for the second time. Frightened and concerned for my health, my mother didn't know what else to do.
She then "broke down" and took me to see the local Chiropractor. I remember being scared because of all the rumors and lies my family had heard about Chiropractors. We told him exactly what we told the MD’s and then what they had said. The Chiropractor immediately told us the nerves that primarily control breathing come from the neck. He asked us if any MD had thought to check my neck. We look at each other in amazement that with all of the MD visits, none of them thought to check my neck.
The first thing he did was check my neck and my spine by ordering pictures (X-Rays) of them. What the pictures found was severe arthritic degeneration of the bones and discs of my spine. This was caused by multiple severe misalignments (Vertebral Subluxations) in my neck that had been there for years (in my case all 11).
My Chiropractor pointed out that when the spine (which surrounds the spinal cord) is breaking down, it can block your brains ability to communicate with your body.
When I was born, birth trauma caused multiple Vertebral Subluxations (misalignments) in my spine. These Vertebral Subluxations were blocking the nerve supply going through the nerves from my neck to my diaphragm (which controls breathing). When I had my neck compressed, it completely shut down the nerve supply to my diaphragm. Without enough nerve supply, ALL body parts/organs will lose function and stop working properly. I was unable to breathe because my diaphragm was essentially temporarily paralyzed due to the lack of nerve supply and loss of function.
My Chiropractor said I would be okay to go back to practice once the problems in my spine (Vertebral Subluxations) were corrected through a series of Chiropractic adjustments.
After receiving Chiropractic care, I hesitantly went back to practice and was extremely nervous about making a tackle. On the first tackle and all subsequent tackles, nothing happened. My coach, my self, and my mom were all extremely relieved that the problem was finally being taken care of.
Since I had my spine checked by a Chiropractor, corrected through Chiropractic, and kept that way, I have been extremely healthy. The strep throat and the flu that I had been getting every single year were no longer occurring. My concentration in school was much improved. My sleep, which had been a problem, was now great. My body was suddenly functioning much better. I have not missed one day of work due to sickness. I have had no prescription medication in my body for sickness. My arthritic problems were stopped and follow up x-rays have shown that there was no further bone spur formation or disc degeneration in my spine. My physical health and mental well-being have been incredible, and I owe it all to Chiropractic.
What makes the Broadway Chiropractic Center so unique?
We are the orthodontists of chiropractic care. We analyze posture and correct structural problems in your spine and nerve system. We never guess about your health in our office. That is why we take specific pictures of your spine so we can find out exactly what is going on in your spine.
Chiropractic care comes in a variety of forms and techniques. Which one do you use?
Dr. Mike practices a chiropractic technique called Precision Spinal Correction. This technique is specifically designed to restore normal posture and alignment of the spine. With these adjustments there is no cracking of the neck or twisting or turning of the neck or back, just great results and a higher quality of life for our patients.
The Broadway Chiropractic Center is for patients of all ages and needs.
Scoliosis (curvature of the spine), asthma, allergies, migraine headaches, TMJ, poor posture, and much, much more. The fact is that less than 10% of your body perceives pain. In most cases symptoms are the worst indicator of health. By the time you have symptoms, the problem has usually been there for a very long time. This is why we recommend proactive health care for children before they develop disease and eventually symptoms.
If your spine was on your face, do you think you would take better care of it?
We would love for each and every family in the Denver area to come visit our office and receive a posture analysis to see how your spine and nerve system are working. Don't wait until you are in pain. Dr. Mike can be reached at Broadway Chiropractic Center located at 487 S. Broadway Suite 90 Denver, CO 80209 or by phone at 303-733-3522.
