What is your first thought when you have pain or discomfort? Take a pill, right? Our society has settled for pain relief with a pill rather than trying to fix the problem. Living with pain or just taking drugs to mask the pain leaves your body primed for further wear and tear. That is the exact reason why our country is leading the world in chronic pain and replacement surgeries. It's time to think differently about how to handle your pain.

The mission of the Injury & Recovery Center is to help you take the next step towards a healthy and pain free life. Dr. Koldenhoven and his staff have committed themselves to this by offering non-surgical and prescription free services. We believe there is a place for medications and surgery, but we help our patients get their lives back through natural therapies. Dr. Koldenhoven offers a variety of therapies to his patients, but he is one of only a few Chicago area doctors to offer the Class IV Laser Therapy System -which is making the biggest difference with chronic pain sufferers. This relatively new therapy helps restore proper energy levels within damaged or injured tissue in the body. This burst of energy given to the tissue helps your body heal faster and therefore get over the cycle of chronic pain.

If you are living with acute or chronic pain, scheduling your surgery for a date not too far in the future, or you are tired of masking your symptoms with drugs or shots, our office may be able to help. We urge patients who are living with chronic pain to just give it a try, there are no side effects except that it may help you get your life back!

The Injury & Recovery Center is taking new patients today at our Woodridge and Willowbrook offices. You may call them to set up your appointment today at 630-910-1002.
