ABOUT NORTHWESTERN'S SPORTS MEDICINE CLINIC
At the
Northwestern Medicine Student Health Services - Sports Medicine Clinic, we strive to keep Northwestern University students functional and active in their everyday lives. We primarily see individuals with:
- Acute Musculoskeletal Injuries
- Joint Sprains, Muscle Strains, etc.
- Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain and Injuries
- Chronic Neck and Upper Back Pain, Low Back Pain, etc.
- Head Injuries/Concussions
Our goal is to quickly and safely return students to pain-free daily activities and the exercise/sports they love to do. We also empower students with injury education and rehabilitation to do on their own at home with provided equipment, or with one of our staff athletic trainers.
