OUR PHILOSOPHY & PRACTICE MODEL
|
At BodyWorks Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we pride ourselves on our high standard of patient care. This starts from the moment you walk into our office and are greeted by our friendly smiles, right through to your appointment where we are dedicated to educating you about your condition, how we can help, as well as how you can help yourself.
Our unique and effective practice methods combine traditional chiropractic adjusting techniques (to restore proper function and motion to joints to increase range of motion and decrease pain) with trigger point therapy and/or dry needling technique (to reduce associated muscle spasms and restore ease and balance), and passive stretching techniques (to restore proper function to surrounding tendons and ligaments in order to increase flexibility). When necessary, we include other therapeutic modalities such as heat or cold therapy and electric muscle stimulation. X-rays are not always required, however, when indicated, we refer you to a local radiologist. In addition, we teach you stretches and exercises that you can perform at home to assist you in your healing and help prevent future problems from occurring.
However, our concern goes well beyond the treatment of your symptoms. We are dedicated to finding the cause of your symptoms. Once we determine the underlying cause, we teach you the necessary changes that need to be made in order to prevent the same problem from returning in the future.
Although we arrived to Woodland Park in 2017, we have been in practice since 2004, and we have experienced success in treating a wide range of conditions for thousands of patients over the years. We are very proud of the fact that the majority of these patients came to us following a recommendation from family, friends or another healthcare provider.

STEPHANE ROY, DC, NMT
Dr. Stephane Roy graduated Summa Cum Laude from Texas Chiropractic College, in 2003. While in school, Dr. Stephane worked part-time alongside world renowned researchers in the Life University Research Department, where he conducted research studies and co-authored research articles that appeared in peer-reviewed research journals.
In addition to gaining practical hands on experience in both the student and outpatient clinic, he had the opportunity to participate in TCC's externship program where he was able to work alongside general medical practitioners and pain management specialists. Through his participation in this program, Dr. Stephane developed a strong grasp of his unique role within the healthcare spectrum. He learned first hand which conditions benefit greatly from chiropractic care, as well as when it is necessary to refer out to the proper medical practitioner. He witnessed corticosteroid injections, spinal surgeries, and follow-up visits to pain management specialists where he saw patients living numbly and out of touch with reality on numerous pain killing prescription medications. Although these treatments are necessary in many cases, Dr. Stephane is dedicated to helping as many people as possible avoid these invasive procedures by giving chiropractic care a try first.
Dr. Stephane was born in the outskirts of Montreal, Quebec, Canada in a small town called Les Cedres. He attended Marianopolis College and Concordia University in Montreal, where he worked on his undergraduate degree in Exercise Science. When he made the decision to further his studies and become a chiropractor, he moved to Georgia where he began his chiropractic program at Life University Chiropractic College. He has always been and continues to be dedicated to learning as much as possible, in order to be able to best help his patients in their quest for health and wellness. This is what drove Dr. Stephane to learn a wide variety of chiropractic adjusting techniques as well as to receive additional training to become a Certified NeuroMuscular Therapist (NMT), and to become certified in dry needling technique, which has enabled him to treat a wider array of conditions, with greater levels of success, than could have been obtained with chiropractic alone.
Dr. Roy practiced for 6 years in Vernon, NJ and 7 years in Potsdam, NY. He relocated to Woodland Park, CO in 2017 in order to be able to add dry needling to his practice as well as to live in an area that suits his great love of the outdoors. He is totally committed to serving the people of his community with excellent chiropractic care and gaining their trust in him, so that he can continue to help as many people as possible achieve their maximum health potential.
