Starts with a highly selective hiring process for each and every team member they bring on board through to your in-depth initial evaluation session through to your customized and constantly re-calibrated training program. CSI develops a holistic plan for you that isn’t meant to be an overnight fix - it’s a comprehensive solution. Their level of commitment and professionalism never ceases - they live and breath it each and every day and it’s consistent from trainer to trainer. My son and I began our sessions together this past Spring, each with very different objectives. Not only do they always work to accommodate our hectic schedules, it’s really amazing to see first hand how they approach each client’s individual needs and circumstances and aren’t ever trying to promote a one size fits all approach. At CSI they’re all about the long-term and developing the right solution for you. If you’re serious about your training and commitment, this team will give you everything you need to get there. read less

I can’t say enough positive things about this place! CSI is a dream-come-true for functional sports medicine, injury rehab/recovery, expert athletic training, and overall physical fitness. Under one roof, I have been able to: 1) address chronic and severe hip pain and limited foot and ankle mobility with chiropractic medicine (Dr. Josh Akins/Chicago Chiropractic and Sports Medicine), 2) focus my nutritional goals and eating habits... read moreI can’t say enough positive things about this place! CSI is a dream-come-true for functional sports medicine, injury rehab/recovery, expert athletic training, and overall physical fitness. Under one roof, I have been able to: 1) address chronic and severe hip pain and limited foot and ankle mobility with chiropractic medicine (Dr. Josh Akins/Chicago Chiropractic and Sports Medicine), 2) focus my nutritional goals and eating habits with the fat loss program (Mike Sorrentino gives it to you straight—which cuts through the denial, rationalization, and excuses that keep us all stuck and provides practical and real strategies to meet your goals), and 3) transform my body into a stronger, more fit vessel than I have ever had.I brought the commitment and they brought the plan. Their experts collaborated to create custom fitness plans for my specific injury rehab and fitness goals. In the past, fear of exacerbating my injuries and pain kept me from consistent exercise. At CSI, I felt confident that I could give it my all and not worry about further injury. Their integrated plan was smart and has given me the results I wanted. We’ve strengthened the parts of my body that were contributing to my pain, cleaned up my eating, and I’ve shed over 25 pounds of fat in 4 months. I feel great, have amazing energy and mental clarity and I’m set to move into my 50’s with confidence instead of resignation. I’ve saved the best for last. My performance coach (Brandon Yang) meets me with the same focus and determination I bring to my sessions. He’s professional, attentive, encouraging and just smart. I show up, give 100% to the plan he creates, and I see results. It’s so rewarding—even if I’m the sweatiest girl in the room! I’m grateful to all of the staff Dave, Josh, Mike, and especially Brandon who is in the trenches with me every session. The work and encouragement I have at CSI fuels and supports the work I do at home with my daily sports chiropractic therapy exercises, walking, and food choices. All of it works in concert to bring about real and sustainable changes for the future I am living into. I’m just so grateful! I wish I had known about you years ago! read less
