Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Josh: A Must-Read for Those Seeking True Relief I rarely leave reviews, but Dr. Josh has truly changed my life, and I feel compelled to share my experience. After struggling with spina bifida and a self-induced spinal fusion for 20 years, along with countless physical therapy sessions, muscle relaxers, painkillers, and various back massage devices, I finally found relief with Dr. Josh. In just one week, he provided an honest diagnosis of my core issue, which surprisingly had little to do with my back. He identified the root causes related to my mouth breathing and an old ankle injury, simply by observing how I sit. I am now in my third month with Dr. Josh, and for the past 10 out of 12 weeks, I haven't even thought about my back pain. His targeted exercises have made a genuine, visible difference within days. Dr. Josh's understanding of the human body's core issues and his ability to provide precise, effective exercises is unparalleled. If he told me to run through a wall, I would do it without hesitation (of course, using the proper techniques he taught me). I highly recommend Dr. Josh to anyone seeking real, lasting relief.

This review is for Dr. Josh Akin (also, Chicago Chiropractic moved its Northfield office to 562 Green Bay in Kenilworth). I'll start by saying over the past decade, I've been to a few chiropractors with limited benefit and after the first couple appointments, would dread going and wasting the time/money, feeling fairly sure the "treatment" was getting me nowhere. The difference can be summed up by the fact that I look forward to appointments w/ Dr. Akin. I strained my back showing snow in Feb 2021, saw a couple of chiros, a couple PTs, had X-rays and an MRI -- nothing was helping. I coincidentally heard about Dr. Akin from a friend of a friend and started w/ him in March 2022. Our first appointment was enlightening: So many things not even related to my back that he picked up on that had been causing mild discomfort for years; for me, a locked up ankle that was causing tightness on that same hip and pain in the opposite heel and knee. A lot of drs will tell you low back pain is a result of a weak core. While that's true, Dr. Akin's approach to building the core is unlike anything I've done or seen on websites, social media/bloggers, etc. If you've been struggling with back pain for a while and the big box chiros/sport med practices aren't getting you anywhere, you owe it to yourself to call Chicago Chiropractic.

I have been to a ton of chiropractors in the Chicago and St. Louis area and this place stands out as the best I have ever been to. First of all, the front desk staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. They were able to work with my insurance company to make sure I am making the best financial choice for me based on how many times I anticipate coming.As for the chiropractors, I personally see Dr. Jon Sebby and he is absolutely incredible. When I came to him, I was overweight and wasn’t able to move pain free at all. During our first few visits, Dr. Sebby spent plenty of time with me answering all of my questions and explaining each procedure he was doing on me. On top of that, I was sent home with exercises I could do at home so I wasn’t just relying on the one visit per week to make progress. Along the way, I got a bit overzealous in the gym and wound up not being able to get off the floor and was carried out and taken home only to be taken to the hospital later in the day. Within two weeks of visits with Dr. Sebby, I was back on my feet, walking, and lifting weights again. It was truly an incredible experience that I did not think was possible. To this day, I am still able to move pain free and have since joined martial arts with no issues. Without the help of Chicago Chiropractic and Sports Medicine, I do not think I would be able to do this. There are many other perks of going here as well including massage therapy, nutrition advice, and everything you need to get and stay physically healthy. I can not recommend this place enough. If you’re in the area and need chiropractic work, look not further.

Dr. Sebby is the best. I refer everyone to him. He fixed my shoulder when months of physical therapy did nothing. One session with him made 10x more progress than 3 months of pt.

I have been working with Dr. Sebby for several years. I had a painful shoulder issue that was affecting my ability to work. After seeing several other doctors and chiropractors he was able to completely strengthen the shoulder, adjust my upper back and within 3 visits the pain was gone! He is a talented doctor and cares about his patients.

This place is one of the best chiropractic institutes I have ever been. Dr Sebby and his team are some of the best, and most professional chiropractors in the business. I've had lower back pain and severe neck pain and with Dr Sebby's help was able to overcome both of those issues. He is the first person I recommend to all of my friends and family when any injuries aches or pains arise.

Dr. Jon Sebby and the rest of the staff at Chicago Chiropractic and Sports Medicine are absolutely top notch and run a FIRST CLASS Health and Wellness organization! My travels recently took me to the Chicago area for work, and Dr. Sebby was able to adjust me and remove all of my spinal pain and improve comfort levels so that my business trip was not a complete health nightmare. Furthermore Dr Sebby's skills in soft tissue movement allowed for me to also address some underlying nerve pain that I had also been experiencing. I cannot help but think that if not for my visit to this wonderful clinic, my trip would not have been as successful or enjoyable as it was. I travel to the Chicago area often for work, and will be making a regular visit to Chicago Chiropractic & Sports Medicine part of my travel itinerary from here on out. Highly recommend anyone looking for a professionally run Health and Wellness clinic to give them an opportunity! You will not regret it!
