Postural and Work-Related Injuries in River North, Chicago
We treat postural and work-related injuries at our River North clinic. Neck and back pain are extremely common among people who spend time working at a desk. Treatments for postural-related pain may include manual techniques, stretching and mobility, and functional strengthening in order to fix the underlying problem rather than just mask the symptoms.
Common Work-Related Conditions We Treat
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Upper back and shoulder blade pain
- Low back pain from sitting
- Tension headaches
- Carpal tunnel syndrome and wrist pain
- Tennis elbow and other repetitive strain injuries
- Hip tightness from long hours at a desk
How We Treat It
Every session is sixty minutes, one-on-one, with the same physical therapist. We find what's driving your pain, then combine hands-on treatment with a strength and mobility plan you can fit into a workday. If your desk setup is part of the problem, we'll help with that too through our postural and ergonomic education.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I need to stop working?
Rarely. Most people keep working while they recover. We'll show you how to adjust your day so you can.
Do I need a referral?
No. Illinois is a direct access state, so you can see a physical therapist without a physician referral.
