Rebound Fitness uses science technology and Physicians to assess the physical needs of each undividual. Once that need has been determined, a staff member coaches the athlete through a personalized exercise program.
Professional and ameteur athletes alike have incorporated our methods of exercise into their daily routine for the purpose of enhancing their athletic performance and rehabilitating injuries.
Rebound Fitness does not teach or give lessons for any sport activity. However, we will teach you to recognize your anatomical deficiencies and correct them. Correction will increase the overall efficiency of your body mechanics and contribute to superior physical performance.
Athletic training is practiced by athletic trainers, health care professionals who collaborate with physicians to optimize activity and participation of patients and clients. Athletic training encompasses the prevention, diagnosis, and intervention of emergency, acute, and chronic medical conditions involving impairment, functional limitations, and disabilities.
To become certified athletic trainers, students must graduate with bachelors or masters degree from an accredited professional athletic training education program and pass a comprehensive test administered by the Board of Certification. Once certified, they must meet ongoing continuing education requirements in order to remain certified.
Improving the quality of health care for workers while dramatically lowering the cost of services is an achievable goal.
Rebound Fitness, located in Northbrook, Illinois, specializes in hands-on treatment and non-operative solutions for the injured worker. We employ medical doctors, physical therapists and certified athletic trainers that understand the unique physical stresses placed on the human body during activities of daily living.
Over the past eighteen years, our experience has taught us that the most common work-related injuries in any profession are sprains and strains due to improper body mechanics and muscle imbalances. Such injuries result in multiple doctor visits, missed days of work, and time spent on forced light duty. In the end, the often ineffective treatment of these injuries wastes vital public resources that could be better spent elsewhere in the budget.
Rebound Fitness will administer effective treatments that address work-related injuries in a productive and cost efficient manner. In addition, we will implement practical tools and training that will help prevent future injuries while helping you decrease your health care expenses by up to 50%. We commit to providing superior services that will better serve and support your valued employees.
We provide comprehensive rehabilitation programs for people of all ages, addressing varied rehabilitation needs following injury, surgery or for chronic conditions. Our advanced diagnostic techniques enable our clinicians to identify the pain sources, then develop customized plans for each patient using proven treatment techniques that improve motion, reduce pain, reduce swelling, increase muscle strength, improve endurance, restore function and prevent disability. We offer goal-oriented programs that utilize a multidisciplinary approach to treatment, giving patients an active role in their own care.
