FAQs: DO I NEED A DOCTOR'S REFERRAL TO SEE A PHYSICAL THERAPIST?
No. The Illinois Physical Therapy Practice Act allows patients to seek physical therapy without a prescription from a healthcare professional.
This act means that you have direct access to a physical therapist, and can set an appointment to see your PT when:
1. You want to prevent an injury.
2. You are experiencing any type of pain: headache, neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, hip pain, knee pain, ankle pain, or toe pain before it gets worst.

Your MRI can be misleading!
If you take people without back pain & put them through a CT scan or MRI, you will get some surprising results.
It turns out that some of these changes are just a normal part of the aging process. If your MRI says something scary, don't be afraid. Call a physical therapist. We are trained to provide a personalized treatment unique for you.

Do you experience tightness or muscle tension? These conditions can make it difficult to go about our daily routines. They might even be caused by an underlying condition. Dry needling can be used to relieve this kind of pain by releasing built-up tension.
It can be difficult to determine the cause of back pain, but sciatica is a common culprit. This can result in painful sensations in the lower back. If you have been living with back pain and think it could be caused by sciatica, schedule an appointment!
