Personalized Care from Our Professional Team
Everyone moves differently, and long-standing pain or injury affects each body in its own way. Even when symptoms look similar, the underlying cause—and the path to recovery—can be very different. That’s why we start with a focused, one-on-one evaluation to understand your movement, history, and goals, then build a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
At every visit, you receive attentive, individualized care. We track your progress, adjust your program as needed, and give you practical tools to continue improving. Whether you’re managing ongoing pain or recovering from a significant injury, we help you move better, feel stronger, and return to the activities you love.

Do I need a referral from my doctor before attending Physical Therapy?
Illinois’ Direct Access Law allows patients to see a physical therapist for an evaluation and treatment without a doctor’s referral, but a referral may still be required based on insurance policies or corporate rules.
What do I need to wear or bring with me?
You should dress in comfortable, loose clothing that allows you to move easily and doesn’t restrict circulation. Depending on your condition, your physical therapist may also recommend special shoes or a brace. You should also bring any paperwork related to your medical history, including x-rays, ultrasounds, and doctor’s notes.
Is there anything I can do before my appointment to prepare?
Yes! Make sure you arrive for your session well-rested so that you can give it your full attention and energy. It is also helpful if you keep track of how much pain medication (if any) you take prior to the appointment so that the physical therapist can adjust the intensity of treatment accordingly.

Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes depending on your condition and the types of techniques used. Your physical therapist will give you an estimate when you first arrive for your appointment.
Are there any exercises I can do at home between appointments to help improve my condition?
Yes! Your physical therapist may provide specific exercise recommendations for you to try in between visits, which will help speed up your recovery and progress faster toward reaching your goals. It’s important to follow these carefully and always check with your PT before starting a new exercise program if you have any questions or concerns.

Your physical therapist should be available to answer any questions or concerns you may have about your treatment plan before and after each visit. You can also contact the clinic directly for further assistance. We want you to get the most out of every session!
Will insurance cover my physical therapy?
It depends on your insurance plan. Most plans cover some or all of the costs associated with physical therapy, but you should check with your provider to determine coverage and any associated fees.
How often will I need to attend physical therapy sessions?
The frequency of visits will depend on your individual goals and condition, but typically it is recommended that patients attend 2-3 times per week for a minimum of 4-6 weeks in order to maximize results. Your therapist will provide more details during your initial appointment.
How long will it take for me to see results?

How will I know when I no longer need physical therapy?
