Dr. Joe

GREEN GRASS

Loud&Clear caught up with Dr. Joseph Arvay, DC. A down-to-earth, faith-driven, kind-hearted chiropactor in Northglenn, Colorado that knows that the power of God not only saves, but heals.

Over 30+ years serving the community!

Meet Dr. Joseph Arvay, DC Dr. Joe’s mom was a nurse. He was long intrigued by doctors and knew early on that he wanted to be a sports doctor. As an Olympic hopeful in wrestling, he beat his body up quite a bit and ended up in the chiropractor’s office.

That was all it took for Dr. Joe to bartend his way through undergrad, then move to Marietta, Georgia. There, he attended Life University. The first day of school, he was informed that chiropractic was invented on September 18, 1895. A lightbulb went off in Dr. Joe’s head. That is the same day as his birthday! At that moment, he knew it was meant to be, and from there, Dr. Joe fell in love with the healing principles that guide Chiropractic.

While there, he was President of Thompson Club, teaching this technique to doctors and students alike. He also had the opportunity to learn the Webster Technique from Dr. Larry Webster DC himself.

Following God’s Given Path Dr. Joe graduated from Life University with a Doctor of Chiropractic in 1991. The person who’d arrived there four years previous wasn’t the same as the one who walked out. Dr. Joe took his knowledge, skills and passion and applied them to his practice.

I’m a SpineGeek, which means I am all about the spine first. That’s where the power is.

Instead of following his Olympic dreams, Dr. Joe decided he’d rather be a gold medal husband, dad, and doctor. Little did he know that years later, he’d end up at the Olympics taking care of athletes in 2012 and 2016. The athletes Dr. Joe took care of ended up bringing home the Gold medal. “I trusted God’s way, and I ended up helping athletes achieve their Gold Medal dreams.”

Giving Back Dr. Joe is passionate about righting human injustices locally and all around the world. That’s why he’s involved with several different charities, each on their own mission to save people. These organizations include

The Keala Foundation, The Dancer Love Foundation, Operation Underground Railroad, and Compassion International.

Dr. Joe has also traveled to Zimbabwe twice. There, he helped establish a chiropractic clinic to bring health and healing to more people and worked with area churches.

A Life That’s Full, Vibrant and Active Since 1989, Dr. Joe has been married to his wife, Ilene. They have four kids: Leah, Mae, Grant and Luke. They have all worked at the office at various times. Mae is in chiropractic college at Life University, and Luke intends to become a chiropractor, too.

When it’s time for fun, Dr. Joe does CrossFit. It’s his goal to one day make it to the CrossFit Games Master Division. He’s a creative person and loves to write, with a hope to publish books and teach around the world. One day, it’s his vision to have a training center in Colorado, where he can teach and train others about the SpineGeek way of life.

What is your name?

My name is Dr. Joseph S. Arvay, D.C. a.k.a. Dr. Joe.

What is your job title and how long have you been working in this career?

I am a Doctor of Chiropractic. I have been in private practice since 1991.

What are the job responsibilities? Responsibilities?

Change the way humans of all ages look at and apply being healthy and strong. Reach, teach, and touch the people of this world so they can wake up each day rested, recovered and ready to win their day. Manage a team of assistants. Perform exams on all ages of people, from pregnant moms, new born baby’s, children, teens, adults and senior citizens.

Our world has forgotten that we are created in God’s image. We were created with everything we need to live a strong and healthy life.

What types of interpersonal skills (people skills) are used on the job?

I am a servant leader. I need to be a good listener and provide simple solutions to people’s problems. I need to be an encourager, to give people hope when they are losing theirs. I make the time spent with a patient, all about them and the solutions they looking to find when it comes to their emotional and physical health.

What type of technology do you use? Has this changed from when you first started in this occupation?

Great question, less paper files, and X-ray film, and more digital everything. We still find that personal touch and great customer service is key in our world. There are many digital online serviceswe can use to keep us organized. We use social media to educate our community and find people who want what we do. But one-to-one connection with people is still valuable to what we do each day.

What is most frustrating about this type of work?

We live in a profit over people world. From the time a baby is born there is a message they are told by the media, TV commercials, and pharmaceutical marketing that your life will be happier and better if you take our medicine or have our surgery. Our world has forgotten that we are created in God’s image. We were created with everything we need to live a strong and healthy life. As long as we learn how to live each day focused on having a peaceful mind, good posture stong body with exercise, eat food that fuels us, and protect ourselves from toxic food, drink, and people, we will be okay. So, we give into the lies and never reach our full potential. The kind of Doctoring I do rescues people from the lies, and teaches them and helps them regain their health in a safe and natural way.

Dr. Joe and his wife, Eileen.

What is most satisfying about this type of work?

I get to join Jesus everyday in His restoration process. I get to help people who are sick, suffering and sad find rest, recovery and they are ready for a new and better day. I have been to 2 Olympics helping my athletes win their gold medals. I’ve help people lose 50+ pounds, seen diabetes reversed, heart diseased reversed, cancer reversed, depression reversed, infertility reversed, chronic pain dissapear and hope restored in so many people.
