Back Pain Therapy in Chicago, IL

Personalized back pain therapy at Athletico Physical Therapy in Chicago’s Rogers Park (Touhy & Western), helping residents overcome discomfort from activities like shoveling snow, long commutes, or walks along the lakefront, so they can enjoy city life pain-free.

Enjoy Chicago’s Seasons Without Back Pain Holding You Back

Living in Chicago means embracing every season—whether you’re cheering on the Cubs at Wrigley, braving icy sidewalks in winter, or enjoying long walks along the lakefront in summer. But when back pain strikes, even simple joys like strolling through the farmers’ market at Touhy Park or tackling weekend gardening can feel out of reach. At Athletico Physical Therapy – Rogers Park (Touhy & Western), we understand how back pain—whether it’s a nagging lower back ache after shoveling snow or a sharp twinge from hours at your desk—can disrupt your Chicago lifestyle. That’s why our Back Pain Therapy isn’t just about relief; it’s about helping you get back to the activities and community you love.

Why Back Pain Therapy Matters for Chicagoans

In a city that never stops moving, back pain can be more than just uncomfortable—it can keep you from fully participating in all that Chicago offers. Maybe you feel tightness after a run along the lake, or you’re struggling with lower back pain after a long winter commute. Our Back Pain Therapy is designed to address the unique challenges of living in Chicago, from the repetitive strain of shoveling snow to the posture pitfalls of working from your home office in a classic Chicago bungalow.

Whether you’re dealing with lower back pain, upper back pain, or stiffness that just won’t go away, our experienced physical therapists will create a plan tailored to your needs. We know every Chicagoan’s routine is different, so your therapy will be as unique as the city itself.

Our Approach: Personalized Physical Therapy for Back Pain

At Athletico Physical Therapy – Rogers Park (Touhy & Western), we know that no two backs—or lifestyles—are the same. That’s why we start every journey with a comprehensive assessment. We’ll listen to your story: When does your back hurt most? What activities do you want to get back to? What have you already tried? From there, we’ll build a program using proven physical therapy for lower back pain and upper back pain relief.

What to Expect During Your Back Pain Therapy
