Back pain back injury treatment at RIC

Back Injuries and Back Pain

The Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (RIC) provides services for patients of all ages requiring physical rehabilitation for back, neck and other musculoskeletal conditions, which include sports and work-related injuries.

Customized treatment plans are developed using state-of-the-art equipment and diagnostic tools. Comprehensive care plans employ a kinetic chain approach that treats the person, not the diagnosis, with the overriding goal of helping the patient manage their condition more effectively. In addition to facilitating recovery, emphasis is also placed on prevention of re-injury.

The treatment plan comprises not only medical care and specialized therapies (physical, occupational, massage, acupuncture, chiropractic and spinal injection) but may also incorporate athletic training and orthotics.

Spine and Sports Rehabilitation Center (SSRC) is an outpatient facility of RIC, located at 1030 N. Clark Street, in Chicago, with a strong emphasis on rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions and sports medicine. Comprehensive musculoskeletal services are also offered at several other RIC locations.
