Douglas R. Krebs, DC, FACO, CCSP, Cert. MDT

Dr. Douglas Krebs had a goal of providing a remarkably unique service: A clinic where patients could go for sports injuries and musculoskeletal aches and pains to obtain a rapid resolution of their condition (usually 4-6 visits) and, most importantly, learn how to treat themselves if it ever returns, to reduce their need for future care. Dr. Krebs is a native of Pennsylvania but moved to the Chicago area in 1998 and has never left.  He enjoys many opportunities to speak for various athletic clubs and organizations on topics such as core strength training, spinal stabilization, self-care strategies for endurance athletes, injury prevention for CrossFit athletes, and functional training. Dr. Krebs stays active with resistance training and has competed in several triathlons.  He understands that athletes hate taking time away from what they love, and that is why he strives to keep them in the game or return them as quickly as possible.

Dr. Krebs resides in Chicago with his wife, Jennifer, and their Greater Swiss Mountain Dog, Henry.
