Move Freely Through Chicago—Find Relief with Knee Pain Therapy

Chicago life keeps you moving—whether you’re walking along the Riverwalk, catching a pickup basketball game at Maggie Daley Park, or simply braving the icy sidewalks in winter. But when knee pain strikes, even a stroll down Michigan Avenue or climbing the ‘L’ steps can become a challenge. If you’ve noticed discomfort during those lakefront jogs or after a long day exploring Chicago’s neighborhoods, you’re not alone. At Athletico Physical Therapy – River North (East Bank Club), we understand how knee pain can interrupt your rhythm and keep you from enjoying everything this vibrant city has to offer. Our Knee Pain Therapy is designed to help you get back to your active lifestyle, no matter the season.

Whether it’s winter’s icy conditions leading to slips and twists, or summer’s festivals and sports leagues putting extra stress on your knees, Chicagoans deal with a unique set of knee challenges. We see it all—from weekend warriors recovering from a meniscus injury after a game at Grant Park, to everyday athletes needing ACL rehab, or those managing knee arthritis after years of city adventures.
