We're growing! It is with great pleasure that we are announcing that we have added a physical therapist to our practice. Here is a quick note from Leon introducing himself:

"Hello everyone!

My name is Leon Cherbukhovsky, I am a physical therapist with 10 years of experience, and I am excited to join Straight Up Spine and Posture on a full time basis! I have known Dr. Ryan for many years as we have shared complex patients together in a collaborative approach. Now, we have the opportunity to combine our strengthens to give comprehensive care under one roof. With a team approach, cutting edge modalities, and one on one care, this practice gets me excited for the future of patient care. After spending years working at a chain therapy company focused soley on numbers, this is a refreshing difference. Patient focused care is the way it should be. Please come check us out, see for yourself the difference between our clinic and the typical chain clinics!"

So please consider us for your physical therapy needs in the future. Leon works with post-surgical patients, non surgical pain, and specializes in dry needling and vestibular rehab (balance and vertigo).

We hope to see you soon! Thank you for your support in the past, we are thrilled to finally see the business come together.

Straight Up Spine and Posture is celebrating 3 years at our Gurnee location 🎉

In honor of our amazing patients we are hosting a patient appreciation event on St. Patrick’s day, Thursday March 17th, @ 7:00-9ish PM. We will be making candles with our patients and sharing a light dinner together.

If you are seeing this, then you are invited!

We have limited supplies, so please reserve a spot. If you are interested, simply call or text 224-656-5778 or email and Jenna and she will confirm your reservation (info@straightupspineandposture.com).

We may host a second event if the demand is too high, but we currently have ~15 spots remaining. Feel free to invite a friend or bring your family.

That’s it… No sales pitch, just some fun crafting with our patients. We appreciate you!

All the supplies for a medium sized candle will be provided including a jar, the wax, fragrance, and a color of your choice. We would recommend a green color 😁. You are welcome to make a second (or third) candle for a small supply fee. Yes, we have that Anthropologie scent if you like that.

Keep an eye out for invites to other patient appreciation nights!

Exercise of the Week: Occipivot!

The first few times using an occipivot, the placement should be done by a professional to make sure you have sufficient understanding before trying it yourself. Make sure the placement isn't too low on the neck so it doesn't extend the neck.

Attach a resistance band onto the clip with the strength that is desired.

The other side of the band should be clipped onto a fixed point just slightly about head height. Walk straight out until there is adequate tension on the iron neck.

Maintain a straight up position throughout each of the different movements that are completed!

Training the muscles of the neck is typically not thought about or is questioned about how to actually train these muscles. The head plank is a great way to challenge the muscular endurance of the deep cervical flexors in the neck. Equipment needed for the exercise is just something small to hang the head off of!

The banded toe walk is a great option to have correct form when doing banded lateral walks. This is a different movement than the lateral band walk, where the band is around the knees! Click the link in our bio for more info on this exercise.

We Get Results, Here’s How:

Our Gurnee Chiropractic clinic combines chiropractic adjustments with disc decompression. This highly effective combination gets quick and lasting relief from tough back or neck pain. We have helped people avoid surgery and get off of pain meds. Disc pain is responsible for more than 50% of chronic neck and back pain, so if your therapist does not have the equipment to address the issue directly, you probably won’t get the results you want.

We also offer long term corrective chiropractic techniques for those who are interested in making sure their pain does not return. This technique, known as Chiropractic BioPhysicsÂŽ, focuses on restoring the natural curvatures of the spine and correcting posture. This technique can make measurable improvements in scoliosis as well. You can read more about this service on our website.

Dr. Ryan Winslow founded Straight Up Spine and Posture in order to bring his experience as an Advanced Certified CBPÂŽ practitioner and Research Honors graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic to the Waukegan and Gurnee communities.
