The Denver Post Wednesday reported that the TravelCenters of America plaza at the Ward Road exit on Interstate 70 in Wheatridge, Colo., now features wellness and chiropractic services, and will add medical testing in January.

As of last month, the paper reported, truckers can have their spines aligned and muscles massaged when they stop at Wheatridge for fuel or food. The InnerPeace Wellness Institute will treat aches, leg cramps and sleeping problems with traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, herbal medicine and therapeutic massage.
Services typically cost $60 an hour, the report said.
Meanwhile, chiropractor Patsy Lowe operates a clinic in a trailer parked at the truckstop and H&L Drug Compliance Inc. will offer alcohol and drug tests beginning Jan. 2.
A TravelCenter spokesman told the paper that the idea came from more than 3,000 truckers surveyed last summer. Among the top suggestions, he said, was an on-site clinic for physical exams required for Colorado and federal Transportation Department certifications, a barbershop, a pharmacy and a holistic health center.
According to the spokesman, the company is searching for a barber or hairstylist to relocate into space just down the hall from the InnerPeace Wellness Institute, which is operated by Kymm and Gregory Ciccu.
