Sports Medicine Clinic Chicago
In Chicago, athletes and active residents need targeted care that keeps them moving. This page covers sports medicine services available at True Precision Rehab—from injury recovery to performance support.
Each service addresses specific sports injuries and movement issues common in active lifestyles.
We offer evidence-based treatments that help Chicago residents return to sport, work, and daily activity faster.
Herniated Disc Treatment in Chicago
Runners, weightlifters, and desk workers with radiating leg pain or numbness from disc injuries need relief that doesn't require surgery. Our herniated disc treatment reduces nerve pressure and improves spine mobility. Many people notice a change within the first few weeks of care.
This injury is common among Chicago's active commuters who sit long hours, then train hard on weekends across neighborhoods like Lincoln Park and Lakeview. We address the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. You can return to training, work, and daily movement without constant discomfort.
Dry Needling Therapy in Chicago
Athletes with trigger points, muscle knots, or chronic tension from overuse injuries benefit from targeted muscle release. Thin needles release tight muscle bands and restore normal movement. Sessions are short, and many people feel looser the same day.
This treatment is popular with Chicago marathon runners and CrossFit athletes dealing with persistent hip, shoulder, or calf tightness. We identify the exact areas holding you back and release them quickly. Many people move more freely after the first session.
Soft Tissue Therapy in Chicago
Anyone recovering from strains, sprains, or muscle tears—from recreational players to everyday movers—needs hands-on care that accelerates healing. Our soft tissue therapy breaks up scar tissue and improves blood flow to injured areas. This speeds healing and prevents re-injury.
The treatment is effective for Chicagoans who stay active through winter sports like hockey, skiing, or indoor training in the West Loop and River North. We use manual techniques to restore muscle function and flexibility. You can get back to your activities sooner and with more confidence.
Shockwave Therapy in Chicago
Patients with chronic tendon pain—Achilles tendinitis, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis—that hasn't improved with rest need advanced treatment options. High-energy sound waves stimulate healing in stubborn injuries. We use radial shockwave, usually once a week for 6 to 8 weeks.
This therapy helps Chicago's weekend warriors and older athletes return to golf, running, or pickup basketball without constant pain. We target the damaged tissue directly to trigger your body's natural healing response. You can finally move past injuries that have limited you for months.
Cupping Therapy in Chicago
Athletes seeking faster muscle recovery after intense training or competition benefit from improved circulation and reduced soreness. Suction cups increase circulation and reduce muscle soreness. Sessions last 10–15 minutes and can be combined with other treatments.
This recovery method is growing in popularity among Chicago's cycling and yoga communities, especially in neighborhoods like Wicker Park and Pilsen. We use cupping to help your muscles recover between training sessions. You can train harder and more consistently without excessive fatigue.
Knee Pain Treatment in Chicago
Runners on the Lakefront Trail, lifters and pickleball players often come in with pain around the kneecap, along the inside of the knee or just below it. Our knee pain treatment looks at the knee and at the hip and ankle above and below it, because the knee often takes the load for them. Care combines hands-on work, dry needling or shockwave where they fit, and strength work so stairs, squats and runs feel better again.
Hip Pain Treatment in Chicago
Tight, achy hips are common in people who sit all day and then train hard after work. Our hip pain treatment checks how your hip, low back and pelvis move together, then targets stiff joints and overloaded muscles and tendons. You leave with a short list of exercises that fit into a busy week.
Shoulder Pain Treatment in Chicago
Swimmers, climbers, lifters and volleyball players often feel shoulder pain when reaching overhead or lying on that side. Our shoulder pain treatment looks at the shoulder blade, the upper back and the rotator cuff, not just the sore spot. Hands-on care and dry needling calm things down, and a simple strength plan helps the shoulder handle your sport again.
Foot Pain Treatment in Chicago
Heel pain in the morning, arch pain after long walks and sore feet from new running shoes are common in a city where people walk everywhere. Our foot pain treatment covers problems like plantar fasciitis, and shockwave is an option for heel pain that has hung on for months. We also check the ankle, knee and hip, because how you move above the foot affects it.
Sports medicine for Chicago's active community
Chicago keeps people moving, from marathon training in the fall to softball leagues, cycling and pickleball in the summer and gym training through the winter. True Precision Rehab is at 371 W Ontario St in River North, a short trip from Streeterville, the Loop and the West Loop, with weekday hours until 8 PM and Saturday mornings so care fits around training and work.
