Serving Chicago since 1991, AthletiCo offers physical and occupational therapy, work rehabilitation, massage therapy, performing arts rehabilitation, sports performance enhancement, and women’s health programs.  Services are performed by licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, and massage therapists who work in tandem with referring physicians to return patients to optimal performance levels.

 Sean Hahn, Physical Therapist and West Loop Facility Manager, is also a resident of the neighborhood.  “This is a thriving community and we are excited about the spacious and convenient location we are able to offer our patients,” said Sean.  Sean completed his undergraduate degree at Augustana College and graduate degree from Allegheny University.  Sean has over 7 years experience and also serves as manager of AthletiCo’s Work Rehabilitation program. “The West Loop facility will offer work conditioning, Functional Capacity Evaluations, orthopedic rehabilitation, fitness programs and massage therapy.”
