Pro Active Chiropractic

About Pro Active Chiropractic

ProActive Endurance & Chiropractic is a Chicago practice focused on endurance athletes and runners who want help with injury recovery, performance, and a safer return to training. The practice is led by Dana Riederer, who describes himself as a chiropractor, teacher, and endurance coach with more than 20 years of personal experience in endurance sports. The office is located in downtown Chicago, and the website also notes support for people in the broader Chicagoland area, with virtual connection available for some services. Care is presented as highly individualized, with treatment plans shaped around each person’s goals, training demands, medical history, and the broader pressures of work, family, and sport.

The website emphasizes an active, patient-centered model rather than relying mainly on passive care. Services listed include strength training, running assessment, dry needling, injury rehabilitation, stress fracture rehabilitation, and running coaching. Dana states that his approach centers on personalized attention, strong patient connection, evidence-based care, and helping patients take an active role in recovery and performance development. The site describes first visits as including a detailed history and a comprehensive orthopedic, neurologic, and strength assessment to build an initial care plan. Injury care may include rehabilitative exercise, joint and soft-tissue manipulation, and education, while dry needling is used to address myofascial trigger points and movement limitations. For runners who are not currently injured, the practice also offers performance-oriented assessment with treadmill analysis and running-specific testing to identify strengths and areas for improvement. Overall, the clinic presents itself as a resource for athletes who want thoughtful, collaborative care that supports both recovery and long-term resilience.
