About Dr. Samuel Pare
Dr. Samuel Pare grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan before attending the University of Colorado in Boulder where he studied Integrative Physiology. Growing up a science nerd he always knew that he wanted to pursue healthcare, but was unsure of the trajectory he wanted to take. He received his Masters in Physiology from the University of Michigan where he realized a traditional job in Western Medicine was not for him. There, he found that he advocates for a more whole-health approach, instilling the need for lifestyle changes over medications and surgery.
He decided to attend The National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, Illinois for his Doctor of Chiropractic degree where he graduated Magna Cum Laude. While in his clinical rotation, he worked with Lakeside Spine and Wellness as a Chiropractic Assistant and Rehab Specialist. Since graduating in April 2018, he worked downtown in the Loop. His focus there was in educating his patient-base of business professionals and weekend warriors on effective self-care to reduce pain and increase performance.
Dr. Pare has obtained extensive continuing education and post-graduate work, such as Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) which he is fully certified in. Additionally, he received continuing education in Functional Range Conditioning (FRC) and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) both of which focus on proper joint function, mobility, and core stability. He also obtained a Masters Degree in Functional Medicine and Human Nutrition from the University of Western States.
His passion for health lies in educating patients on the steps needed to ensure a pain-free and functional life, without the need for continuous chiropractic care week in and week out. He values the ability of his patients to be independent and focus on future prevention.
At lakeside Spine & Wellness we pride ourselves in FAST, EFFECTIVE CARE for any type of pain you may have.

Dr. Pare is wonderful! He listened to me and my needs, and is providing me care to keep myself healthy. The office is very nice and the office staff were very polite!
August 10, 2022Jillian L.Verified patient
Only my first visit but Dr Pare doesn’t just adjust your back and throw stim on you, a good portion of the first appointment was honing in on the real issue and trying to movements to relieve pain. He looked at the individual and adjust his approach to what’s best for them. Look forward to continuing treatment with him. Communication overall was amazing!

Thanks to Lakeside Spine and Dr. Pare, I was able to finish the Chicago Marathon. I came in with strong pain in my achilles, but Dr. Pare was able to alleviate that pain with his expertise and guidance. For any runners reading this, Dr. Pare gets it and is able to get you healthy to your next starting line.

Are you in back pain? Do you feel like you just can not walk from here to the corner without pain?
This is your place, don't wait another day. I have been to chiropractors, podiatrists, and physical therapists, all wanting a ton of time and money with minimal results. I walked in to see Dr. Samuel Pare and could barely walk 4 weeks ago and a week later, I felt so much better. I had a set-back after pulling something heavy but after a few days, of doing my "homework" I was back to feeling fine.
This is my results and I can't promise you a miracle but if you "do the homework" assigned as I have the last few weeks, then results will happen. I feel so much better, my pain level is very low now and I am walking 30 minutes at a time without pain. This is a major accomplishment since during the pandemic shut-down my pain was a steady 7 level.
I am so grateful to Dr. Pare and the amazingly knowledgeable, professional and talented office staff. I have never had such an amazing experience at a chiropractic office before now.
PS - You must also get a massage, it's fantastic!

He is clearly extremely knowledgeable about his field. And he was willing to work with me with my specific issues, rather than having a cookie cutter treatment plan he tries to apply to everyone.
November 8, 2020Katelyn K.Verified patient
I am very impressed with Dr. Pare! After 4 visits my neck issues are gone! He's extremely knowledgable and personable. He was able to quickly diagnose my particular issue and provided some very helpful exercises and strecthes to help alleviate the pain. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of pain relief and plan on continuing to see him anytime my issues recur or new ones arise!

Dr. Pare is the best! He helped me immensely with my tense shoulder and neck issues. Sam is very knowledgeable and takes the time to identify the root cause of issues. What I liked most is that he emphasized teaching stretches to help me recover on my own time as well. He is not a chiropractor who wants you to rely solely on him for adjustments. Sam is very personable and I will definitely be back to see him if issues pop up in the future. Highly recommended!

Dr. Sam Pare is - by far - the best chiropractor I've had (and I've had several). I've suffered strain because of workouts, and continuous marathon training, and his treatments have significantly helped.
During my first marathon I endured a foot injury with severe pain during my run that led to mental scarring, as this not only impacted my body but also my mindset. When I began training for my second marathon I chose Dr. Sam for help with my feet and knees. Not only did he work with me each week, giving me less pain and more movement, he helped diminish my fears and alter my mindset leading into my second race.
I'm happy to say that not only did I feel incredible during my race, with not one ailment, but I broke my previous marathon time! His help during my training is something I will never forget. Highly recommend

I cannot recommend Dr Pare enough. I went to him with pretty serious neck pain/stiffness to the point of not being comfortable to move my neck at all. After 3 weeks of seeing him just 4 times, I am 100% better. The approach he takes to really get to know your problem and give you functional exercises to help fix the issues outside of the office was what impressed me the most. To anybody in the Chicago area needing a Chiropractor, I would highly recommend a visit to Dr Pare.

I suffered from crippling back pain to the point where I couldn’t get out of bed in the morning and I would fall down from sharp pains walking. I met with Dr. Sam and instantly knew I was in safe hands. He took an hour and a half out of his day to help me and get me back walking. His follow up was attentive and professional. I was back to running and working out within 2 weeks thanks to his post session stretching plan!

Dr. Pare is fantastic! I came in because of some really bad neck and upper back pain, and he got me on a path to recovery, even feeling much better after the first visit. He taught me exercises I can easily do at home that are extremely helpful to prevent issues before they become a problem. He’s friendly and professional and appointments/scheduling are easy and convenient. Highly recommend!

I've been to a number of chiropractors over the past 20 years, and Sam Pare by far is the best I've seen. I really appreciate his approach, which combines chiropractic with exercises/physical therapy. He is also the only chiropractor who didn't insist on seeing me multiple times a week, followed by twice a week, followed by weekly, followed by monthly. We met weekly and made significant progress in my pain. Thank you, Dr. Pare!
