Dr. Christopher Utrup — “Dr. Chris” to just about everyone — has been helping people feel better for over 20 years.
He started his pre-med studies at the University of Findlay in Ohio, then earned his Bachelor of Science in Human Biology and his Doctor of Chiropractic from Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis. He spent his first years in practice at a busy St. Louis clinic, where he built core-strengthening and rehab programs, and opened Back-In-Line Wellness Center in 2010. Along the way he taught anatomy and physiology, medical terminology and microbiology as an adjunct professor, and traveled to remote villages in Nepal as a volunteer with the Karma Thalo Foundation, bringing chiropractic care to people who’d never had access to it. He later brought Back-In-Line to Colorado — for the patients, and for the mountains.
Dr. Chris is certified in dry needling and in the Webster Technique for prenatal care. He blends chiropractic adjustments, dry needling and hands-on muscle work to fit what your body needs that day, and he’s cared for everyone from newborns to patients in their 90s.
He built the practice around a simple idea: getting better shouldn’t come with long treatment plans, insurance headaches or pressure. Just clear, simple pricing and care that meets you where you are.
When he’s not in the office, you’ll find him outside enjoying everything Colorado has to offer, or at home with his family and their fur-babies.
