Vital Care Physical Therapy

Physical therapy and the rehabilitation process are one of the single most important factors ensuring your return to your normal activity level. At Vital Care Physical Therapy Centers, we utilize an aggressive functional treatment approach to create personalized rehabilitation programs for individuals whose injuries endanger their performance and careers.

We have trained and caring physical therapists who evaluate and design treatment programs in collaboration with your physician to minimize pain, impairments, and functional limitations, and promote fitness, injury prevention, health, and return to active lifestyle. Our facility has modern equipment for massage, manual therapy, and other modalities. We are equipped with state-of-the-art exercise machines and free weights. Each patient’s therapy and rehabilitation process is completely customized to meet his or her specific needs.

Our Joliet clinic location also provides an aquatic therapy program for our physical therapy patients. This aquatic program is coordinated with a land-based physical therapy program, facilitating each patient’s return to function. Aquatic therapy is beneficial due to the sensitivity level and the limited amount of weight an injury can bear after surgery. Water supports the body, reduces joint stress and provides resistance and assistance in exercise movement. Patients are able to improve mobility, strength, and function fairly rapidly during this physical therapy process. Many benefits exist through aquatic therapy: accelerates rehabilitation; reduces joint stress and swelling; increases circulation, endurance and flexibility; promotes muscle relaxation; and aids in pain management. Aquatic therapy is a beneficial rehabilitation option to treat conditions such as arthritis; injuries to the neck, shoulder, low back, knee and ankle; chronic pain and work-related injuries.

Vital Care Physical Therapy Centers provide comprehensive sports medicine services by providing licensed athletic trainers to area high schools. Athletic trainers provide coverage for practices and games. This coverage includes preventative taping, injury screening, and strength and conditioning drills.

Vital Care Physical Therapy Centers are located in Morris, Joliet, Ottawa, Streator and Naperville.
