Living in Chicago means embracing every season—bundling up for those blustery winters, strolling along Lake Michigan in the summer, and powering through each day, rain or shine. But when back pain slows you down, even the city’s best moments can feel out of reach. Whether you’re navigating icy sidewalks in Hyde Park, commuting on the L, or enjoying an afternoon at the Museum of Science and Industry, discomfort in your lower back or upper back can disrupt the life you love. That’s where Back Pain Therapy at Athletico Physical Therapy – Hyde Park East comes in—helping you find lasting relief and get back to your favorite Chicago routines.

Your Chicago Lifestyle, Your Back Health

Chicago’s vibrant lifestyle means you’re always on the move—whether you’re running along the lakefront, cheering on the Sox, or simply carrying groceries up those classic brownstone steps. But with the city’s ever-changing weather, daily wear and tear can sneak up on your back. Maybe you’ve noticed a sharp twinge after shoveling snow, or perhaps your lower back aches after a long day at the office. Our Back Pain Therapy is designed for real Chicagoans like you, supporting your active life and helping you manage the challenges that come with city living.

How Physical Therapy for Back Pain Can Help You

Back pain is one of the most common reasons Chicagoans seek out physical therapy. Whether it’s persistent lower back pain from sitting at your desk, stiffness from a sports injury, or discomfort after a weekend of home improvement, our therapists are here to help. At Athletico Physical Therapy – Hyde Park East, we don’t just treat symptoms—we work with you to understand how your pain impacts your everyday life and create a personalized plan to help you move with confidence again.

What to Expect from Your Back Pain Therapy Journey

Your journey begins with a thorough assessment. We’ll listen to your story, ask about your lifestyle, and evaluate how your pain affects your movement.
