Dr. O'Hara

Sports Chiropractic

Arlington Heights, IL

Our practice was established by Arlington Heights native Dr. Kevin O’Hara. With roots deeply embedded in our community, his journey began as a chiropractic associate in Barrington, Illinois. Shortly following his departure, Dr. Kevin brought his dream of owning a practice close to home to life. We welcome patients of all ages and walks of life. Since the beginning of our practice, Dr. Kevin has continued to foster an easygoing and relaxed environment conducive to healing. Whether you are young or old, suffering from minor discomfort or chronic pain—you have a place with us. It is important to us that our patients feel comfortable and cared for as soon as they walk through our doors. Upon arrival, you will be greeted by Dr. Kevin and Staff and the soothing sounds of music, often featuring classic rock artists like the Rolling Stones. You will notice that our practice exudes an artistic flair, reflecting our chiropractor’s passion for all things creative. Unlike more traditional, sterile healthcare settings, our practice is complete with the display of Dr. Kevin’s original artwork. Welcome to a practice where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy art-inspired healing and wellness. You are invited to join your new chiropractic home. Our practice invites babies and seniors alike, with acute or chronic pain and discomfort. We believe that everybody with a spine can benefit from chiropractic care when delivered according to their needs. With us, the whole family is welcome. Be sure to reach out to us with any questions you might have prior to beginning your chiropractic journey. Throughout the history of our practice, our unwavering dedication to our patients and their well-being has remained steadfast. Dr. Kevin is committed to providing each patient with chiropractic adjustments tailored specifically to their condition and wellness goals. Each plan of care we offer is personalized, facilitating quick healing and, if you are interested, lasting health.

Dr. Matrille

Sports Chiropractic

Chicago, IL

Dr. Jacob Matrille is grateful to have grown up in the quiet farming community of Oakland Township, Michigan surrounded by country roads, where he learned to appreciate nature, biology and the joys of hard work — his first job was carrying bales of hay for the farmer across the street. He also learned about the power of chiropractic care when it helped resolve his childhood asthma and get into shape for sports. What most impacted his decision to become a DC was witnessing how his mom conquered severe, chronic migraines to become a top Ironman triathlete who competes across the globe — pain free. After completing a BS in psychology at Michigan State, he graduated cum laude with a Doctorate of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic, where he developed a passion for making care accessible to all. During a mission trip to Madagascar he helped underserved communities — an experience he treasures, as he insists that chiropractic care should not be reserved for only the wealthy and insured. To maintain his wellness he runs marathons and coaches beach and indoor volleyball, kickball, softball and ultimate Frisbee leagues. He also spends lots of time with his young daughter, as well as volunteers for Special Olympics, The Listening Ear Crises Center and various LGBT groups. Dr. Matrille is also huge advocate for organ and tissue donation and has donated a kidney to a close friend. He truly wants to be the change he wishes to see in the world by starting with what you he do for the people close to him. He's inspired by his favorite Malcolm X quote: "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything."
