Patient Education
Our Services
We offer hands-on manipulation, flexibility and strengthening programs directed at achieving safe mobility and regaining pain free function. Goals are directed by individual clients needs and reinforced with specific home exercise programming.
Orthopedics
Our combined experience offers skilled attention to those who need help with post operative strengthening related to the spine, joints and overall loss of mobility. We treat issues of pain, stiffness and weakness with a variety of techniques individually working with each client on accomplishing healthy movement and restoring strong, safe movement and function.
Lymphedema Mangement
In our Orland Park office, we offer specific evaluation and treatment for problems related to a variety of lymphatic disorders and secondary conditions. Post mastectomy programs, as well as chronic lymphatic lower extremity dysfunctions are treated by our experienced therapist with an educational and consistent, one on one, "hands-on" approach. We offer much in the way of self management once the condition has become controlled and stable. Visit our Lymphedema Mangement page for more information and FAQ's.
Work Conditioning
We will work with those who need to focus on proficiency and safety at their specific job. Our therapists will determine the demands of your work based on a job description and customize a program designed to restore strength, endurance and flexibility to meet these needs. Our goal is to successfully return our clients to being as fully productive as they were prior to their injury or surgery.
Fitness Program
We provide a fitness program which is designed for individuals who are finished with their skilled therapy and wish to continue with supervised exercises. In this program clients can use all the needed equipment and exercise at a pace and level which is appropriate and safe, considering past medical and physical history. A great alternative to a crowded gym or medically unsupervised recreational program. Limited to previous and present clients only.
Fall Risk Management
Our team is experienced with complete assessment of clients who have a history of or newly diagnosed difficulty with falls and loss of balance. We will evaluate, design and implement a program of strengthening, balance training and endurance improvement to assist in safe mobility. Focus is on instilling confidence for stairs, curbs and a variety of terrain and surfaces to ensure consistent fall preventionin and out of the home.
