Relieving Pain, Restoring Function
FYZICAL Therapy and Balance Center - Chicago, formerly Sportho Physical and Aquatic Therapy, Ltd. has joined privately owned, independent, physical therapy centers throughout the country to continue with providing our particular method of physical therapy. We have seen how our friends (yes, our patients are our friends) have been having increasing difficulty with balance and falls and we recognize a need to treat those problems. We did not change our DNA, and we will continue with our specialization in one-on-one, aggressive, Physical Therapy treatment of orthopedic injuries.
We are one of less than a dozen clinics in the entire Chicago area with a dedicated indoor Aquatic Therapy facility. Ease and speed of recovery are maximized through exercise in the water, which can address such difficulties as ligament reconstruction or total knee (and other knee surgeries), herniated discs from cervical to lumbar, ankle sprains and injuries to the shoulder to name just a few.
