Expert-led Physical Therapy for Pain, Injuries, & Prevention

Skillz Physical Therapy

At Skillz Physical Therapy, we believe that your body deserves dedicated care, so we deliver expert-led treatment focused only on you each session. No guesswork, no waiting for the therapist to finish with two other patients. Just your body, your goals, and a clinician whose full attention is dedicated to your recovery. We deliver precision treatments backed by science, experience, and advanced recovery techniques. Our clinic combines advanced modalities with deep clinical insight. Depending on your unique case, your treatment plan may include: • Dry Needling – releases stubborn muscle knots and trigger points that traditional massage can’t reach. • Extracorporeal ShockWave Therapy – uses acoustic waves to stimulate blood flow and tissue repair, helping tendon injuries heal faster. • Cupping and Laser Therapy – support circulation and speed up cellular recovery for post-surgery or chronic pain patients. Rediscover What It Feels Like to Be You Again. Whether you’re struggling with lower back pain, knee pain, TMJ, Vertigo, shoulder &amp; neck pain, or post-surgery treatment, Skillz Physical Therapy provides a space where your healing is personal, not procedural. We understand that pain isn’t just physical; it’s emotional. It’s the frustration of missing your morning walk, cutting short your bike rides along the Skokie path, or feeling like you can’t keep up with the people and activities that make you, you. At Skillz, you are more than a slot on a crowded schedule. We focused on one goal, helping you feel like yourself again.

The iconic and delicious Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder is headed to you on Friday, June 26th!
Chicago might have its deep dish pizza, but there’s another hometown creation that’s just as hearty and delicious, and quite possibly even cheesier: the Pizza Pot Pie. Created in 1972 at Chicago Pizza &amp; Oven Grinder, located just across the street from the location of the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, this ooey-gooey masterpiece just might deliver the most legendary cheese pull in all of Chi-town!
This ingenious creation starts with scratchmade triple-raised Sicilian bread dough. It’s filled with rich homemade tomato sauce that’s slow-simmered with olive oil, fresh garlic, onions, green peppers, and whole plum tomatoes. And finally, cheese – and lots of it! Baked upside-down and served right-side-up, it’s a pizza like no other — comforting, indulgent, and uniquely Chicago.
Ordering closes by 12pm on Thursday, or when we sell out.

Lakeshore Aikido Club

<h3>Discover Aikido at Lakeshore Aikido Club in Evanston</h3>
Registration Deadline: Monday, June 29 | Program Fee: $150
Ages 16 and up
Looking for a meaningful activity that reduces stress, improves balance, and helps you build confidence while joining a supportive community?
Join our six-week Summer Beginner Program and discover Evanston's community for mindful movement, non-violent self-defense, and healthy aging.
The Lakeshore Aikido Club warmly welcomes adults and teens (16+) to explore this unique Japanese martial art in a friendly and inclusive environment in the heart of Evanston.
Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art built upon the principle of harmonizing rather than opposing. Instead of meeting force with force, practitioners learn to redirect energy, remain calm under pressure, and resolve conflict without unnecessary aggression. The goal is not to harm, but to neutralize and de-escalate.
Training combines dynamic movement with mindfulness and develops physical and mental resilience. Through regular practice, students improve balance, flexibility, coordination, posture, and situational awareness while learning practical principles of non-violent self-defense.
Unlike competitive sports, Aikido has no tournaments and no winners or losers. Students work cooperatively with partners in a supportive atmosphere that encourages personal growth, mutual respect, and lifelong learning.
<h3>During this six-week program, you will learn:</h3>
<ul><li>Body conditioning, stretching, and Aikido warm-up exercises (aiki taisō)</li><li>Safe falling and rolling techniques (ukemi)</li><li>Fundamental principles of martial arts</li><li>The foundations of non-violent self-defense</li><li>Aikido values, etiquette, and philosophy</li><li>Silent meditation (mokuso) and mindfulness practices</li><li>Basic movement, posture, and footwork (kamae and taisabaki)</li><li>Fundamental Aikido techniques (kihon waza)</li></ul>
No previous experience is necessary.
An Aikido uniform (gi) is not required for this introductory program, although it is strongly recommended. Information on how to purchase a uniform will be provided. Participants who already own a martial arts uniform are welcome to wear it.
<h3>Enrollment is Limited</h3>
To ensure personalized instruction and maintain a supportive learning environment, class size is intentionally kept small. We encourage early registration, as spaces will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
<h3>Questions or Registration</h3>
