The Heart Behind the Technology
For more than two decades, Dr. Todd Renn, D.C. has helped Chicago residents overcome back, neck, nerve, and joint pain through a blend of advanced technology and compassionate care. As the founder of both Ravenswood Chiropractic and Chicago Laser Pain Center, Dr. Renn is recognized as one of Chicago’s pioneers in Class IV Laser Therapy and Non-surgical LaserDisc Decompression™ therapy, a groundbreaking Relief Now® method that helps the body heal naturally, without surgery or medication.
“Our goal isn’t just to relieve pain , it’s to restore, function, and quality of life.” – Dr. Todd Renn, D.C.
A Vision to Help Chicago Heal Naturally
Dr. Renn’s journey began with a simple belief that the human body has an incredible ability to heal itself when given the right support. After years in chiropractic and rehabilitation care, he saw a growing number of patients suffering from disc injuries, sciatica, and chronic pain who had “tried everything” with limited relief.
He realized that traditional therapy alone wasn’t enough for these cases and that’s when his vision for combining functional movement science with Class IV Laser Therapy took shape.
“When I saw what regenerative laser could do for tissue repair and inflammation, I knew it would change how we treat pain,” says Dr. Renn.
His mission: bring the latest, evidence-based, non-surgical technology to everyday patients in Andersonville and across Chicago.

Innovation Through Class IV Laser Therapy and Non-surgical LaserDisc Decompression™
This advanced therapy uses light energy to accelerate cell repair and reduce inflammation deep within damaged tissue. Studies have shown that this type of laser light works by increasing mitochondrial activity and ATP production, providing the energy cells need to heal faster and stronger. Our patients have reported faster recovery, improved mobility, and less pain often in cases where other treatments failed.
Non-surgical LaserDisc Decompression™ gently stretches the spine at the affected segment to relieve disc pressure, restore disc hydration, and promote disc healing. When combined with Class IV Laser Therapy, it creates a powerful synergy addressing both the mechanical and cellular components of pain.
“By combining Class IV Laser Therapy with the precision of Non-surgical Spinal Decompression and the Relief Now Methods, we can help the body truly heal not just mask pain.” – Dr. Todd Renn, D.C.

A Patient-Centered Approach
Every patient’s story is unique and so is their care. Dr. Renn’s process begins with listening: understanding each patient’s symptoms, goals, and history before designing a treatment plan.
Each evaluation includes:
- A detailed movement assessment
- Neurological and orthopedic testing
- Personalized recommendations for therapy, lifestyle, and ergonomics
His goal is not only to alleviate pain but also to empower patients with the knowledge to prevent its return.
“Healing isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey. It’s about giving people back control over their lives.” – Dr. Todd Renn, D.C.
