News and Upcoming Events
This month we’re celebrating the profession that gets people back to running, lifting, dancing, chasing their kids, and sitting at their desks without pain. Physical therapists are movement experts, and in Illinois you can see one directly, without a referral. At Dynamic Physical Therapy Chicago-River North, that means a full hour, one on one, with the same therapist every visit.
All month long we’re introducing each of our five physical therapists on social media. You’ll learn about their training, their specialties, and what they love about helping patients. Follow along on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to meet the team and find the right PT for you.

Hypermobile and always feeling tight? Stretching more may not be the answer. When your joints move more than they should, the muscles around them work overtime to keep you stable, and that effort often feels like constant tightness, fatigue, or pain. Our new blog explains hypermobility, hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), and hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD). It also covers how physical therapy builds the strength, control, and confidence you need to move well. Sarah Kemmerer, DPT, OCS, treats many of our hypermobile patients, and every visit is a full hour of one on one care. No referral is needed in Illinois. Read the full post.
New Running Education Resources
Our therapists recently published new blog posts focused on injury prevention and performance for runners, including guidance on effective cross-training and selecting appropriate running shoes. These resources are designed to help runners stay healthy throughout the season.
