Services in this area

01

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic at CIHW is structural work inside a sports medicine and regenerative model. The adjustment is one tool in a plan, with rehab that makes the change last.

How we approach this

02

Physical Therapy & Rehab

Rehab is how structure becomes capacity. Our physical therapy and functional rehabilitation programs are built to get you back to sport, work, and training without a vague home-exercise printout.

How we approach this

03

Therapeutic Massage

Massage here is treatment for recovery, pain, and tight soft tissue - coordinated with chiropractic and rehab when you need it.

How we approach this

04

Sports Injury Treatment

A sports injury is tissue, load, and sometimes recovery or hormones. Treating only the sore spot is how it returns. Sports injury care at CIHW lives next to rehab and performance in the same building.

How we approach this

05

Dry Needling

Dry needling helps with muscle and trigger-point pain. We use it to get you back to movement and loading sooner - always paired with rehab, not as a one-visit fix.

How we approach this

06

Soft Tissue Therapy

Joints do not move well if the tissue around them is glued down. Soft tissue therapy at CIHW is clinical work on muscle, tendon, and fascia - next to adjustment and rehab, as part of the same plan.

How we approach this

07

Return-to-Sport

Pain-free is not the same as ready. Return-to-sport is the bridge from rehab to the field, court, or lifting platform, with criteria you can understand.

How we approach this

08

Joint, Muscle & Tendon Care

Most pain that walks in here is a joint, a muscle, or a tendon that has been compensating. We treat the tissue and the reason it failed - then we load it so it lasts.

How we approach this

09

Concussion Care & Baseline Testing

A concussion is a brain injury. CIHW treats concussion care and athletic baseline testing as sports medicine: history, exam, and a return-to-play path you can follow.

How we approach this

10

Kinesiology Taping

Tape is not the treatment. It is a short-term way to support tissue while chiropractic, rehab, and loading do the real work. We use it when it changes how you move today.

How we approach this

11

Athletic Baseline Testing

Many school computer baselines do not capture enough to guide return-to-play after a hit. Baseline concussion testing at CIHW is a clinical athletic assessment. Families across the Chicago area use it when they want a file we can actually compare later.

How we approach this
