Empowering people with long-term disabilities to live more fully.

Accessible, integrative healthcare personalized to you

Our Mission

At the Chanda Center for Health, we believe that people living with long-term physical disabilities have the right to create their own healthcare path, live independently, and be active members in the community. We provide accessible, integrative services, including acupuncture, massage, chiropractic care, physical therapy, behavioral health, care coordination, and primary care.

We aim to reduce health disparities, improve outcomes, and lower healthcare costs through compassionate, whole-person care.

"Words cannot express the gratitude I have for the Chanda Center. The staff and the providers and the services that they offer all have been a tremendous asset in my day to day life, as I live with chronic pain and function with a spinal cord injury. Thank you does not seem an appropriate enough phrase to share my gratitude."

What We Offer

The Chanda Center Icon

Integrative Healthcare, Tailored to You

Our services include acupuncture, massage, chiropractic care, physical therapy, mental health, primary care, and care coordination. These therapies work together to help individuals with spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, brain injuries, and other long-term disabilities live healthy, high quality lives.

Options for Access

Most participants receive care in person at our Lakewood, Colorado location. Care coordination, primary care, and mental health services are also available remotely for established participants. We accept Medicaid and Medicare, and individuals may pay standard rates or qualify for discounted rates based on income. For Coloradans outside the Denver metro area, our Remote Services program may be available if eligible.

Why It Matters

Living with a long-term disability often comes with chronic pain, isolation, and medication dependency without access to preventative care due to financial and physical barriers.

At the Chanda Center for Health, we focus on whole-person wellness, supporting physical and emotional well-being while creating opportunities to find connection in our community. In our Evaluation and Outcomes Report, our participants self-report their experience:

Advocacy & Systemic Change

We stand as a national model by reshaping the rules that determine access to integrative therapies. By pushing healthcare systems to evolve, we challenge traditional healthcare narratives to ensuring people with disabilities are getting the care they need. Rooted in lived experience and powered by two decades of relentless advocacy, the Chanda Center transforms individual stories into statewide change and national policy awareness, proving that systemic change is not only possible but necessary.
