Experienced Chiropractic Care Near Carpentersville
Dr. Galante is a licensed Chiropractic Physician and Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician. He is certified in Cox Technic for the lumbar, cervical and thoracic spine and is a member of both the Illinois Chiropractic Society and the American Chiropractic Association.
His own experience with persistent back pain led him to study Cox Technic, a doctor-controlled form of flexion distraction performed on a specialized table. The method is designed to provide controlled movement and decompression of specific areas of the spine.

Conditions We Evaluate
Pain in one area can have more than one possible source. Leg pain, for example, may relate to a disc problem, spinal stenosis, the hip or another condition. Numbness or burning in the feet may be associated with a nerve root in the lower back or with peripheral neuropathy. That is why the examination comes before the treatment plan.
Dr. Galante evaluates people experiencing:
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Sciatica
- Herniated discs
- Spinal stenosis
- Degenerative disc disease and arthritis
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Whiplash
- Work injuries and sports injuries
A Cause-First Approach to Care
Dr. Galante begins by listening to what you are experiencing, reviewing your health history and completing a physical and orthopedic examination. If imaging is needed to make a responsible decision, he explains why. He then reviews what he found and recommends a plan based on those findings rather than using the same routine for every patient.
Depending on the examination, care may include:
- Cox Technic
- Chiropractic manipulation
- Physical therapy
- Laser therapy
- Whole body standing vibration therapy
- Orthotics
- Sports medicine
Chiropractic care is one option among several, and results vary from person to person. If the examination suggests that a condition is better managed by another medical provider, Dr. Galante will explain that and refer appropriately.
Sciatica Care for Carpentersville Patients
Sciatica can cause pain that travels from the lower back into the buttock, leg or foot. It may make ordinary activities such as getting out of a car, standing in line or walking across a parking lot uncomfortable. Because the discomfort is often felt away from its source, an examination is important before deciding what type of care makes sense.
Dr. Galante evaluates the movement patterns and structures that may be irritating the sciatic nerve, then recommends conservative care based on those findings. Visit the sciatica treatment page for more information.
Care That Supports the Activities You Want to Keep Doing
Back or neck pain can gradually pull people away from exercise, yard work, sports and everyday routines. For Carpentersville residents, that might mean skipping the gym or pool at the Rakow Center, avoiding a favorite trail or struggling through a full work shift.
Tell Dr. Galante what you have stopped doing or what movement has become difficult. As a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, he considers those practical goals when evaluating the problem and explaining a plan.
Insurance and Payment
Insurance coverage and provider participation vary by plan. Ask your insurer whether this office currently participates in your plan and what services, referrals, visit limits and costs apply. Call (847) 854-2000 with general scheduling or payment questions.
If your visit relates to a car accident or work injury, ask your insurer or claim administrator which steps and documents are required. Bring available claim information when you contact the office.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first appointment is an evaluation. Dr. Galante reviews your history, asks what makes the symptoms better or worse and performs a physical and orthopedic examination. Afterward, he explains what he found, what he recommends and what questions still need answers. You can ask questions before deciding how to proceed.
