The RACC recently sat down with Dr. Jason Bojar with Balance Medical Integration to learn more about Ridgway's family-owned professional medical practice.

1. Can you tell us who are the owners of Balance Medical Integration and provide a bit of history to what led you to Ridgway?

My name is Dr. Jason Bojar and along with my wife, Dr. Jessica Balbo, we are the co-founders and owners of Balance Medical Integration, in 2017. Locating our office in southwest Colorado came to life after a family visit to Ridgway, where we were instantly captivated by the town’s charm. The picturesque mountains, cozy community atmosphere, and convenient access to the nearby reservoir played a significant role in our decision to set roots there. We have offices in both Ridgway and Telluride (Mountain Village).

2. What is your favorite part of the work that you do?

We appreciate the connections we make with our patients and that we are able to help them with something that is very important-their health.

3. What sort of treatments does Balance Medical Integration offer?

Balance Medical Integration offers a range of integrative and advanced treatments designed to promote well-
being and address various health concerns. Here are some of the key treatments available:

Chiropractic Care - Focused on musculoskeletal health, this includes spinal adjustments, sort tissue therapies and therapeutic exercises to alleviate pain and improve mobility​.

Regenerative Medicine - Utilizing therapies like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cell treatments to enhance the body’s natural healing processes​.

Shockwave Therapy - A non-invasive treatment using acoustic waves that targets tissue repair and reduces inflammation through focused sound wave technology.​

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy - Involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber to accelerate tissue healing and improve circulation.​

Rapid Release Therapy (RRT) - Employs high-frequency vibration to relieve muscle tension and reduce pain​.

Functional Medicine - A personalized approach addressing the root causes of chronic diseases.​

X-Ray Diagnostics - Provides detailed imaging to support accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plans​.

4. Do you have tips to stay healthy during the winter months?

Here are three health tips for winter from the doctors at Balance Medical Integration:

Stay Physically Active: Regular exercise, even indoors, is essential to maintain circulation, flexibility, and overall well-being. Chiropractic care can also help alleviate winter stiffness and improve posture, which contributes to better health and reduced stress.​

Strengthen Your Immune System: Focus on eating a nutrient-rich diet with seasonal vegetables and fruits. Supplements like vitamin D and probiotics can also play a critical role in bolstering immunity during the darker months when cold and flu cases rise.​

Hydrate and Manage Indoor Air Quality: Use humidifiers to combat dry air, which can irritate the respiratory system. Staying hydrated helps keep mucous membranes moist and supports the immune system in fighting off seasonal illnesses​.

5. Anything else you would like the Ridgway community to know about your business?

We love working with so many amazing people in our community and are beyond thankful for
all the support we’ve received through the years. It truly means the world to us!
