At Lutheran Life Communities, we’re always seeking new ways to elevate the lifestyle and quality of life for our residents and neighbors. That’s why we’re thrilled to share some exciting news: a brand-new Joint and Spine Clinic is opening on June 3, 2025 on our Lutheran Home campus in Arlington Heights!
This is not just another medical service—it’s a game-changer in how we support holistic health and pain management right where residents live. Whether you’re part of our community or live nearby, this clinic is designed to provide expert, convenient and compassionate care that keeps you moving comfortably through life.
Innovative Care, Right Around the Corner.
Musculoskeletal pain—whether in the back, knees, shoulders or hips—can slow us down and diminish quality of life. Worse, many people put off treatment or diagnosis and choose to “live through the pain.” Until now, addressing this kind of pain often meant traveling to multiple medical offices or hospitals. But with the launch of our new clinic, expert evaluation and treatment are just steps away.
Led by renowned physicians Dr. Sajjad Murtaza and Dr. Akash Jindal, the Joint and Spine Clinic offers interventional pain treatments without the use of opioids or invasive surgeries. Think advanced diagnostics, fluoroscopic-guided injections and tailored therapy plans—all in a comfortable, light-filled environment (and Starbucks coffee just down the hall).
Seamless Integration with MyRehab.
The new clinic complements the existing MyRehab services at Lutheran Home, which many residents already know and love for its short-term and outpatient therapy. By working closely with the physical therapy team at MyRehab, the clinic ensures smooth transitions from diagnosis to recovery.
Picture this: personalized care plans, private suites, outdoor therapy options in the summer, cozy living areas and bistro-style dining—all under one roof. It’s an approach that brings comfort, efficiency and outstanding outcomes together in one beautiful setting.
Who Is This For?
If you or someone you love has experienced joint or spine discomfort, you’re not alone—many older adults face this challenge. In fact, 40% of patients at Dr. Murtaza’s other clinics are people over 60 seeking relief without the side effects or risks of traditional pain treatments.
This clinic is for anyone seeking:
- Relief from chronic joint or back pain
- Alternatives to opioids and surgery
- Expertise in pain diagnostics and therapy
- Convenient, community-based care
Services include lumbar and cervical injections, radiofrequency ablations, joint injections for hips, knees and shoulders and EMG-NCV testing—all administered with precise imaging guidance.
Community Education and Events
We believe that knowledge is power—especially when it comes to your health. That’s why we’re kicking things off with a special educational event on June 10, 2025 right here at Lutheran Home. Dr. Murtaza will be leading a presentation on pain management options that enhance mobility and well-being, all without the use of narcotics.
