Our Story

Addressing Your Problems: Not Just Your Symptoms

 

Who we are

Since 2011, Dr. Ryan Glynn has been practicing chiropractic care in Libertyville, Il and serving the North Shore area (Libertyville, Lake Forest / Lake Bluff, Vernon Hills, Mundelein, Grayslake, Gurnee). Through his experiences, research and studies Dr. Glynn found that he kept asking himself “why is it that sometimes our bodies work at a 100% level of efficiency and the next day our bodies only work at 60%?” His solution was to open his own practice so that he could find these answer directly. 

At Glynn Chiropractic we focus on helping people look at the body as a whole instead of segmenting it, like what most medical professionals tend to do. By assessing it as a whole we can address the cause and not just the symptom: this is what makes us different.

Understanding that patients have diverse needs is essential to correcting their pain long-term. We want to show people that they can help themselves after they visit and recognize that it’s more important to be out doing what they love than it is to be stuck in our office every week.  

Discover Unparalleled Treatment with Chiropractic and Neurological Care

At our clinic, we redefine the healing experience, offering a fusion of chiropractic precision and neurological expertise unmatched in our field. With over 14 years of specialized postgraduate studies and a relentless pursuit of innovative treatment modalities, we deliver care that goes beyond alleviation of symptoms to fundamentally enhancing body mechanics and neural health.

Tailored Therapeutic Mastery

Our approach is not a one-size-fits-all solution. We delve deep into the complexities of each case, employing a vast array of techniques tailored to the unique neurological and biomechanical profiles of our patients. From nuanced chiropractic manipulations that consider neurological findings and postural assessments to advanced sensory enhancement therapies, each treatment is meticulously crafted to address the specific underlying issues—whether they be movement dysfunctions or sensory impairments.

Proven Success with Complex Cases

Every day brings remarkable success stories here at our clinic, where we not only address common ailments but also excel in managing complex medical puzzles. A notable example involves five of my patients who, over the years, presented with subtle yet alarming symptoms—unusual pupil constriction, elevated breathing patterns, and a general appearance of illness. These weren't typical signs of a heart attack, such as chest pain or discomfort in the arm or jaw. Yet, through detailed assessments including heart and neurological exams, I identified and immediately addressed emergent heart attacks in each case. These patients might have dismissed their symptoms as minor, perhaps due to stress or a cold, potentially overlooking the critical care they required.

In another inspiring case, a male in his late 30s came to us with a decade-long history of knee pain, which began during his college football days. After numerous visits to orthopedic specialists and physical therapists, he was advised to limit activity to manage pain, significantly impacting his lifestyle and activities he loved. When he visited our clinic for intermittent back pain, a thorough review of his history directed our focus to his longstanding knee issue. By addressing the entire kinetic chain—ankle, knee, hip—through targeted manipulations, we not only alleviated his knee pain but restored his ability to run pain-free for the first time in years. Thirteen years later, he remains active and pain-free, maintaining his health with regular visits.

We also have numerous successes with severe sciatica, where patients often arrive after weeks of pain, medication, and physical therapy elsewhere. By looking beyond localized symptoms to evaluate the whole kinetic chain, we achieve significant pain reduction, often by as much as 75% within two - three weeks, especially in cases where MRI scans show no chronic underlying conditions.

These stories underscore our commitment to not just treating symptoms, but enhancing life quality through comprehensive care. Our approach is about understanding and treating the root cause of discomfort, ensuring each patient can achieve and maintain optimal health and activity levels. If you're facing health challenges and looking for a path to recovery, our clinic is ready to guide you through a personalized treatment plan designed for lasting success.

Comprehensive, Continuous Care

We believe in empowering our patients with knowledge and tools for self-care. Education is a cornerstone of our practice, where each patient is equipped with understanding and techniques to support their long-term health. Our tailored advice spans nutrition, exercise, stress reduction, and more, ensuring our patients are well-prepared to maintain their health independently, with our ongoing support.

Elite Athlete or Weekend Warrior: Optimal Performance for All

At our clinic, we prioritize a personalized approach for each athlete, considering their home environment, economic situation, medical history, and any specific challenges they may face, such as learning disabilities, ADHD, being on the autism spectrum, or physical disabilities like amputations. Our comprehensive assessments lead to tailored therapy plans designed not just to treat, but to strengthen and optimize.

We don't subscribe to the one-size-fits-all philosophy; for instance, sprinters aren't limited to sprint-specific exercises, nor are wide receivers confined to football-specific drills. We consider the multitude of factors influencing an athlete's life and performance. Our goal is to build a strong foundational health that allows for the development of skills in a broader context—enhancing brain function for quicker reaction times, improved processing speed, heightened sensory awareness, and more effective motor output. This holistic approach not only improves biomechanical movements but also leads to better recovery and reduced risk of injury, preparing athletes for the demands of their sports and everyday life.

Our holistic approach is particularly beneficial for athletes at all levels. By integrating neurological health into sports performance care, we help athletes sharpen their reflexes, enhance their motor output, and improve sensory awareness, which are crucial for peak performance. Our clinic’s strategies are designed to optimize the body’s potential, ensuring athletes can achieve their best, sustainably and safely.
