An injury shouldn’t decide when your season ends. At RESPORT, our chiropractors provide sports injury rehab in Chicago that combines physical therapy, hands-on chiropractic care, and progressive strength training in one plan, so you recover fully and return to the field, court, trail, or gym stronger than before. Our Old Town clinic serves athletes from the Gold Coast, River North, Lincoln Park, and across the Near North Side.
Sports injury rehab is a focused form of physical therapy that helps active people recover from injury and return to their sport safely. Resting until the pain fades isn’t the goal. Real recovery means restoring full range of motion, strength, stability, and confidence, then correcting the movement patterns that caused the injury so it doesn’t come back.
Because physical therapy is within our chiropractors’ scope of practice, you get spinal and joint care, soft tissue work, and rehab exercise from the same provider who knows your case from day one.
We work with acute injuries that happened in a single moment and overuse injuries that built up over weeks of training. Common conditions include:
If your injury isn’t listed, ask us. You can also read more about sprains and strains.
Our patients range from weekend warriors training for a first 5K on the Lakefront Trail to marathoners, triathletes, CrossFit and strength athletes, golfers, tennis and pickleball players, and adult league soccer, softball, and hockey players. Whatever your level, your program is built around your sport, your schedule, and your goals.
For ongoing support, many athletes add massage therapy or personal training after their rehab plan.
Every injury heals on its own timeline, but a typical plan is about 8 to 12 visits. Minor strains may resolve sooner, while ligament injuries and long-standing tendon problems can take longer. Once you’re back to full activity, we recommend periodic maintenance visits to keep your body performing well through the season.
If you’re looking for sports injury rehab in Chicago that gets you back to your sport and keeps you there, we’re here to help. Call (312) 900-2640 or book online today.
Physical therapy addresses pain, stiffness, and weakness after an injury. Through targeted exercise, manual therapy, and education, our chiropractors help athletes rebuild strength, flexibility, and proper movement so they can return to sport safely.
At RESPORT, you don’t have to choose. Our chiropractors provide physical therapy as part of their care, so your joint work, soft tissue treatment, and rehab exercise are coordinated in one plan.
Everyone heals at their own pace, but starting early is usually best. Delaying care can lead to stiffness, weakness, and compensation patterns that slow your recovery.
Most injuries benefit from a few days of protecting the area and managing inflammation, followed by gentle movement. How quickly you return to activity depends on the severity of the injury, and we build a plan to get you back safely.
For the first 24 to 48 hours, protect the area and use ice and compression to manage swelling. After that, gentle movement, good sleep, and proper nutrition support healing. A structured rehab plan helps you progress without setbacks.
It’s rarely too late. Rehab can reduce lingering pain, restore strength and mobility, and help manage injuries that never fully healed.
RESPORT is located at 1221 N La Salle Dr., Unit 2W, in Old Town, serving the Gold Coast, River North, Lincoln Park, and the Near North Side.
