I dont know what I would have done without this place.. other than to be stuck living in horrible pain forever. Lower Disc Degen already, an accident in July basically crippled my back and anything attached to it, which is like everything. It was to the point where I couldnt even close my hands, hold anything no matter how light, move or turn my head, neck, or any other part of my body w/o pain (the exceptions being my eyes nose and mouth) for about 3 months. After three months I had had little to no recovery aaand it was really starting to seem dire. I had some successes in the past with the Activator back home, so I found Parker Wellness where they practice a similar method (and actually take my insurance). They use a kind of automated activator along w other methods previously unknown to me but undeniably effective. I find the "activator" thing a perfect substitute for cracking which is not something I like, especially when dealing w/injury.. Dr Bakko makes you feel super comfortable right away, is very knowledgeable, kind, and listens to what you have to say which is really impt. He also explains things really well, and gives you ways to help the treatments yourself at home. I got immediate relief after the first session, and frankly cried with relief. After the First week, the improvement only gained momentum, and I finally had hope. Now I am finally able to start living a normal life again. I can sit up, dress, bathe, walk, gently stretch, exercise, leave my home, ride in the car.... laugh again. Not to mention the treatments are helping to improve and manage the disc degen/lower back issues, something I was previously unaware could ever get better... but it is. These things would have *never* been possible without Dr Bakko and the staff here at Parker wellness center. I am grateful every day, these guys are my miracle. They are professional, accommodating, genuine and incredibly kind. I will continue to see them forever... the results cannot be argued with and are just amazing.. If you are looking for relief from chronic pain or just cant get rid of issues from an accident, there is hope, and it will get better. Nothing to lose, and everything to gain. Thanks you guys:)

For over a year I broke out in sever and painful hives all over my face. I spent hundreds of dollars at the dermatologist trying to treat my problem. I was consistently given harsh topical creams and medications that made me drowsy to treat the hives as they told me they were related to allergies. I was consistently missing work because the medications made me so drowsy ( more money lost), and the hives sometimes turned into blisters that bled making wearing makeup impossible and later left a scar that resembled a large bruise. As my wedding date quickly approaches, the stress of a face full of hive, blisters, or scars was mounting. I finally noticed that my hives were significantly worse surrounding my menstrual cycle so assuming it was hormone related I consulted a gynecologist who was unable to find a reason for my monthly reactions. After a year of the hives becoming worse and spreading to my neck and even my eyes I decided to try a different approach. I visited the Parker Wellness Center in Denver and was treated by Dr. Bakko and Dr. Parker. They were both confident that they could help me, were incredibly knowledgeable and had excellent bed side manner. Of course I was skeptical at first because every other doctor for the past year hadnt been able to help me but I followed a strict diet and supplement routine that Dr. Bakko and Dr. Parker placed me on and have now been free of hives for a full 2 months!!! I thought for sure it would take at least a month to see even a slight improvement but I went to the Wellness Center a few days after I had broken out in severe and painful hives and literally havent had even the smallest outbreak since. I will never be able to fully express my thanks and gratitude to the Parker Wellness Center doctors. I would highly recommend Dr. Bakko and Dr. Parker to anyone with any health concern, they are true miracle workers. Dont waste all your time and money! Go see them first! Thank you so much Dr. Bakko and Dr. Parker!!!!!!

Ive experienced chronic neck issues for years and Ive experienced multiple practitioners who "set" me and within hours to a day or so afterwards my "cranky" neck would still cause pain. I had extremely limited rotation to one side. I receive massage therapy on a regular basis and do neck and back exercises faithfully. I change my pillows regularly and do all the things Im supposed to do. I was referred to Dr. Bakko by my massage therapist. I immediately liked his patient mannerisms; he makes direct eye contact, he LISTENS, he is empathetic. As we talked and I explained my pain he offered to try NET with me. He asked a series of questions as he was muscle testing my body. Then the questions became more pointed as he honed in on stressors in my life. When we discovered the "trigger", Dr. Bakko walked me through release techniques. I had immediate relief in my neck that I hadnt experienced for YEARS! I was dumbfounded, surprised, elated and skeptical - Id experienced relief before but it was always temporary. Ive had full rotation in my neck since my first visit. Ive had some "crankiness" but it hasnt impeded my ability to rotate my head. I am so happy that Im learning what causes the issues for me, but even more so, that Dr. Bakko has provided me with techniques I can use to self-heal, re-set or whatever you want to call it. My husband and I attended one of the evening informational sessions with Dr. Parker and Dr. Bakko. It was great to hear their stories, to meet other patients and learn some new things. Ive referred friends and family and am very excited about the caring possibilities for their wellness and improvement. This is a wonderfully caring, empowering environment. It is well worth your time and effort to give them a try!

I had never been to a Chiropractor before and did so because I had tried everything else to address the pain in my leg due to several herniated disks, confirmed by MRI. I lost 20 pounds, went to a physical therapist, walked daily, stretched daily, took anti-inflammatory meds, had deep massage weekly, tried heat, tried cold packs but it just got worse and I started to lose muscle tone. So reluctantly I went to see Dr Bakko with not much hope of him making a lot of difference because nothing else had. But I didnt want to have surgery and I was willing to try anything to feel better. Within 2 sessions I started to feel dramatic improvements and I have full functioning and no pain in my leg any longer. I decided to ask if he could help 2 other areas that I had troubles with, for over 20 years, but had given up any possibility of making a change: My sense of smell was almost completely gone even to very strong, intense smells and the circulation in my toes was so bad that they would turn white if I didnt wear socks and slippers even in the summer time. My sense of smell is returning and my toes we are still working on but due to my prior experience, I am extremely hopeful that will improve too. I would recommend seeing Dr Bakko BEFORE you spend money on MRIs and other things because it would have saved me a ton of money and made my recovery much shorter.
