Climb Pain-Free at First Ascent Avondale

One-on-one climbing physical therapy inside First Ascent Avondale
at 3516 N Spaulding Ave, Chicago, IL 60618
Available Thursdays, 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM

The Anti-Clinic Approach

Traditional physical therapy traps you in a cycle of visiting a clinic three times a week just to have someone watch you do generic band exercises. At the Lee Physical Therapy, you get a full 60 minutes of direct, one-on-one time with your physical therapist.

​

The session combines skilled, hands-on manual therapy with guided, climbing-specific movement. You leave with a deep understanding of your injury, the exact reasoning behind your rehab plan, and the confidence to train independently. Most patients only need an initial evaluation and a single follow-up 3 to 6 weeks later.

Transparent, Out-of-Network Pricing

To provide a full hour of undivided attention, the practice is cash-based and does not accept insurance (HSA/FSA accepted).
Paying cash for two highly effective sessions is ultimately cheaper and faster than paying 18 insurance copays over six weeks. If you have out-of-network benefits, we will provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.

Finding the Avondale Clinic

We operate directly inside the First Ascent Avondale climbing gym.
