Arguably the most complex and advanced engineering of the body, the human foot is made up of 26 bones, 30 joints, and over 100 muscles all working together to give us the ability to walk, run, and jump up on two legs. Hundreds of thousands of nerve endings constantly send information to our brain giving us awareness of our contact with the ground to provide stability and precision movements. It’s no wonder that a simple injury in the ankle or foot can set off a cascade of chronic ongoing pain and faulty mechanics.

When treating the foot, it’s important to make sure all surrounding muscles, ligaments, nerves, joints, and tendons are moving how they were originally intended. Treating only one specific area, too often leads to chronic reoccurring dysfunction. At Chicago InHealth Center, we take pride in our ability to accurately assess your condition to determine and design an appropriate treatment plan.

Dr. Graham Pommerehn has vast experience working with many conditions of the foot and ankle. With an additional degree in Exercise Physiology and experience working with several dance companies and part of the U.S. Speed Skating team he has gained insight in the complex nature of chronic conditions of the foot and ankle.

Treadmill Evaluations are commonly performed in the clinic to evaluate the foot during movement to allow a more clear picture of the condition.

The doctors here are wonderful. Dr Pommerehn helped me find ways to take care of my back after it had left me immobilized and unable to go to work.

Let me first start by saying that I was totally against any type of chiropractic care until I hurt my back earlier this year.  After some nudging from a coworker, I decided it was time to get help.  I searched for a Chiropractor in my area and the Chicago Whole Health Center came up.  I called immediately and spoke with Dr. Graham Pommerehn aka "Dr. Feel Good"!  I was truly surprised and overjoyed that I felt so much better after my first visit!  "Dr. Feel Good" worked his magic on me and did it with the best bedside manner I ...

Great service and great people.  I've had chronic back problems over the last 20 years and have been to a number of loop area places and Chicago Whole Health is definitely the standout.  On my first visit it was clear that their interests truly lie in resolving the issue rather than ensuring a larger number of visits (they showed me how to effectively self treat to the extent possible).  While I went there only for lower back issues, they offer a pretty expansive line of services.  I highly recommend this place to anyone.

I had broken my tailbone a few years ago and recently was having more pain around it. I thought surgery may be my only option, but decided to try chiropracticcare for the injury and I'm so glad I found this place! Dr. Pommerehn is amazing! He was very upfront and honest during our initial exam and thoroughly explained every part of the treatment plan. Given the extent of my I injury we weren't sure treatment would help, but his patience and treatment paid off!After a few weeks of intense treatment (three times a week) I have been able to manage ...

This is a great place.  Dr. Pommerehn was so good. I had lots of problems with my shoulder, which we tried therapy on to fix.  He explained everything in detail, and finally when my shoulder did not get completely better, he sent me for an MRI, which showed a tear.  He said I would might need surgery.No one could believe that a Chiropractor was helping me so much - I really appreciated the work that he did with me, and the honesty with which he treated me.I will definitely use this place again.

I have had some medical issues that I have not been able to resolve for the past few years. Having tried Western medicine and holistic methods, I decided to try out acupuncture.I was not sure where to find a good acupuncturist (other than Chinatown). I really wanted someone I could communicate my problems to and who could communicate with me so that I could understand everything. Dr. Zhao was the answer to my problems. She speaks English and some Mandarin!I had told Dr. Zhao that it was my first time to acupuncture and told her my problems.  She explained everything ...
