Exercise Therapy and Strength Training in River North, Chicago

Exercise therapy and strength training are at the core of every plan of care at our River North clinic. The best part of practicing physical therapy in a one-on-one care delivery is being afforded the time to approach exercise prescription in a very personalized manner. Exercises are selected, modified, and progressed to be as targeted, individualized, and challenging as possible. Movement is coached to activate correct musculature, restore proper neuromuscular control and stability, and break patterns of reinjury.

What Exercise Therapy Looks Like Here

Every session is sixty uninterrupted minutes with the same physical therapist. After any hands-on work, you move into our 1,600 square foot open gym to load the range and control you just gained. Your therapist watches, coaches, and adjusts in real time, so every rep is doing what it should.

What It Helps With

• Rebuilding strength after surgery
• Recurring injuries that keep coming back
• Joint instability and hypermobility
