Thank you to all the patients that came to see Ground Floor PT at our little one room office with no signage! We wouldn’t bee here today without you. We’ve officially moved across the street into our bigger and better storefront clinic. We look forward to seeing you there!

Extra special thanks to the “moving crew” that shuffled everything across the street in a Chicago snow storm!

Can I bring my child to PT? Yes!

We understand that coordinating childcare and healthcare is difficult. For best results, try to time visits with baby's nap time or bring quiet toys for your older child.

Do I need a referral to schedule an Initial Evaluation? No!

IL is a Direct Access state which means you do not need to go to a physician first for a physical therapy prescription. You can come directly to us! We will evaluate you from a musculoskeletal viewpoint and see if you are a good candidate for PT. We will send our evaluation over to your Primary Doctor so they know what's going on and you can get right to treatment.

We have past posts about who might need PT and how we help. If you think those sound like you, schedule an evaluation today!

We have self schedule available on our website GroundFloorPT.com
