What to expect at your first Rebound Fitness & Rehabilitation appointment
Our therapists use a whole-person, results-driven approach. Every session is tailored to your specific needs and based on your current situation to ensure you resolve your pain, weaknesses, restrictions, and functional limitations as soon as possible.
Rather than contributing to the current medical system’s limited view of treating your symptoms with medication or surgery, we focus on determining the root cause of a problem. Your Northbrook, IL therapists provide patient-centered care.
You can do a few things to prepare for your first session. For example, we ask all patients to bring the following to the first session:
- Please go online, fill out our intake forms, or print the documents and complete them to bring with you at your initial evaluation.
- Please wear or bring comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily and provide access to your problem areas.
- If you intend to use insurance, please bring your insurance information so we can make a copy of your card for our records.
- Please bring any referrals, prescriptions, and test results from your referring physician, Nurse Practitioner, or physician assistant.
- In case of an automobile accident or worker’s compensation claim, bring any case manager or insurance adjuster’s contact names, phone numbers, and claim numbers.
At your initial visit, our physical therapists will start by conducting an evaluation that includes a thorough history and comprehensive physical examination. Our experts understand the body’s interconnectedness and are skilled at identifying impairments and functional limitations that are contributing to your specific situation.
When you arrive at our Northbrook, IL physical therapy clinic, you can expect the following:
- Upon entering the clinic, you must register at the front desk. Our administrative team will need your insurance information and any other paperwork you may have brought with you (i.e., referral, X-ray or MRI report, and other medical reports).
- Next, we will take you to a private room for your initial evaluation with one of our physical therapists. Our therapists conduct a thorough assessment to understand your problem(s) and provide you with the best possible solution(s).
- Based on your medical history and physical examinations, your physical therapist will devise a therapy plan for you. This will include an explanation, education, and some treatments to get you started on your road to recovery.
- Your Rebound Fitness & Rehabilitation therapist will discuss your goals and work with you to create a therapy plan to help you recover as quickly as possible and achieve meaningful, lasting results.
If you are in pain, have an injury, or are recovering from recent surgery, our specialists at Rebound Fitness & Rehabilitation in Northbrook, IL will address these issues, prioritize your needs, and get you back to doing what you love!
