Best chiropractor I have ever been to! Have recommended him to several "chiro - skeptic" friends and family that have been in pain - and they always leave his adjustments presently pain relieved and full of gratitude for the referral. There are no jarring or forced movements with him (which I have unfortunately had from others). He is very knowledgeable, explains all his techniques, and his priority is definitely demonstrating outstanding patient care!

My family and I have been seeing Dr Bugg for "Bugg hugs" as my daughter called them, for 16 years. I myself have been treated by Chiropractors before him, and have had bad experiences. The kind that harm the credibility of Chiropractic medicine. I started seeing Dr Bugg for chronic issues to a curvature issue in my neck. Dr Bugg clearly educated me on what the issue was and how treatment would look over time. I no longer have the repeatedly occurring flare ups associated with that condition and now that I am in a maintenance level of care, have learned to be sensitive to when I need a tune up! On a side note, Dr Bugg is just an interesting fellow with the ability to adjust you and your horse... yes, your horse.
Dr Bugg is down to earth, honest, experienced and I and my family would not be as healthy as we are without his skill and caring.

I have been seeing Dr. Bugg consistently for two years. I was in a motor vehicle accident and as a result, I was left with a herniated disc in my lower L4/L5 lumbar. This affected all aspects of my life as I was in daily pain and when my back would flare up it was unbearable to the point I would be bed ridden. For the first year after the accident, I did weekly physio and found that it was not beneficial for my injury. I was recommended by a friend to go see Dr. Bugg and started seeing him once a week to gradually every three weeks. Before meeting Dr.Bugg I was very hesitant about seeing a chiropractor but Dr.Bugg was very supportive of my fears and walked me through all the procedures and worked around my comfort level. Thankfully because of Dr.Bugg's treatment, my back has been able to start healing and in return, I have not only avoided surgery but also my back pain has significantly diminished. I would highly recommend Dr.Bugg!

He is the best. He know exactly how to help you for long term injuries as well as short term
Would highly recommend him. I recently went to see him about a disc herniation and boy has he helped. Although an injury like this cannot be fixed over night, he has brought it along and it is getting a lot better. Blaine and his team are the best to have fighting on your side for any injuries.

My family and i have been seeing Dr.Bugg for 18 years. My wife and I are accomplished cyclists and skiers. We compete in road and mtb stage races and have had our fair share of falls and crashes. Myself in particular has sustained some brutal crashes. One in particular was a bike crash while doing a mtb stage race in Costa Rica. I did not know just how badly I crashed until my return home. The crash resulted in me fracturing a vertebrae and tearing my SC joint. Through careful adjustments surrounding the area of involvement my healing time was markedly increased.
We appreciate all that Dr.Bugg and his staff do for us and we have continually referred new patients throughout the years.
Do this day we would not be doing the things we do without Dr.Bugg on our team!

When I came to Dr. Bugg my condition was already surgical in nature, however, I can truly say that his efforts were responsible for any semblance of sanity I managed to maintain prior to what ended up being an L5-S1 disc replacement.
While going through what turned into a multi-year process before finally having surgery I exhausted every possible remedy in my search for any type of help, however minor it may have been.
Through all the trial and error it was Dr. Bugg who was able to provide me with windows of relief in what was otherwise constant pain.
Thank you Dr. Bugg for your support then and your continual maintenance now!

My recent MRI showed that I am suffering from Discal Degenrative Disease. At 62 years of age, my active life and quality of it was gradually worsening and really did not have one. My MD was very honest and explained that all I can do to for my excruciating pain was turn to pharmaceutical drugs. My MRI showed that . On advice from a nurse friend I went to see Dr. Bugg. I had never seen a chiropractor before so I was not sure what to expect. After just one treatment I feel so much more relief. At my age I figured it not likely to recover but I am feeling 80% better and very happy that I don't have to rely on pain relievers medication. Thank you Dr. Bugg for helping bring me back to what I loved to do.

Dr bugg basically has gone ahead and helped ruin my life. I suffered a L5-S1 disc herniation confirmed by MRI in April 2014. Went to see him on the advice of a friend. Pain at that time was 2/10 constant and 6/10 when at its worst. I went here because my friend said they do spinal scans and might be able to help me. Bugg laid me on the table and before I even knew what was happening he proceeded to do 2 rapid manipulations I. What felt like my thoracic and lumbar areas. I had some nervous laughter at the time as I was not prepared for this. The next day seems right now like it may be the beginning of the end of my life. My herniation that was liveable at least became instantly surgical. I had to make it into my dr and start on percocet just to get by. I also contacted the caleo clinic and was able to see a surgeon who triaged me as immediately surgical due to the extreme 10/10 burning pain in my left leg. Only relief I could get was by doubling my percocet dose and lying on my right side. I was under the knife at foothills 2 weeks after seeing him, the surgeon said it was so bad I should have gone to emergency. After all this the many health care professionals I have been dealing with cant believe that he would do these manipulations when I had a confirmed herniation, they have all said the risk is just to high. Now here is the next part of that saga... Starting at the same time that my back became surgical I started to notice I was having neck pain and numbness/tingling down my right arm, it was Intermittant so I tried to ignore it hoping it would go away. After a month when it did not my dr ordered a cervical mri which showed no herniation. Ever since bugg's "adjustment" I have been having pain in my lower thoracic spine area and dealing with what the doctors are describing as nerve tension causing return of my leg issues and I now have numbness/tingling in both arms and hands. I am now in the hole several thousand dollars in MRI, physio, acupuncture and massage fees trying to get all of this under control. I am unable to do my job as a firefighter, unable to play any sports at all and also more importantly now unable to play with my young children. People have asked me if I have told bugg all of this but I honestly would be sick to my stomach if I had to speak with him. I have no idea how he is with other conditions but I do honestly believe that my life as I knew it may now be forever ruined and changed. I am that guy you read about on the Internet and say wow that is awful.
