Athletico Physical Therapy - Peoria Heights

Experiencia fantástica: What an incredible experience. My body was so weak and unstable when I started I didn't see an end, but Emily was there the entire time, guiding me through each day, She created a plan that addressed everything I needed and changed up the tasks to keep it interesting. Emily included me in decisions and addressed my concerns. Now, I can balance and walk confidently. I was able to finally breathe this huge sigh of relief after more than a year since developing my movement issues. There aren't enough Thank Yous to Athletico and specifically Emily for getting me back.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the only Physical therapy I would recommend for ever person. Emily and Kirk are fantastic at helping to push you to your goals. They are always helpful and understanding.

Experiencia fantástica: An incredible staff. You immediately feel comfortable when you walk in the door and are greeted by Matthew. I particularly enjoy working with Emily.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional, amazing staff, love this place … thank you Matthew and doctor Emily. You guys are awesome

Experiencia fantástica: This the second time I have used Athletico on prospect road. Matt is a great front desk person and Kurt, Emily and Kelly are fantastic to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: They are great and very helpful. This is the only place I want to go for therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: Matthew was quick and professional

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience. It was enjoyable to go to therapy. The staff was helpful and knowledgeable. Mathew always greeted people by name and took a personal interest in knowing clients and making them feel comfortable. Enjoyed my time with both therapists in the office and the aides. Always felt like I had their attention and they were aware of my case and interested in helping me manage discomfort.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been attending physical therapy at this location for about a year now, and have been extremely satisfied with my experience from beginning to end! Matthew at the front desk is always warm and friendly, and Kirk is unfailingly passionate and knowledgeable about what he does as a physical therapist. It's clear that the patient's needs and well-being are the top priority for all staff, and I've had significant improvement in my health concerns since beginning treatment. I don't plan to get treatment anywhere else!

Experiencia fantástica: They have been a great help getting me healthy.

Experiencia fantástica: I've started physical therapy here in November 2023 for a work injury and I've made so much progress with the help of the the team here at Peoria Heights. I'm not 100% to my baseline, but the exercises and stretches have definitely helped me regain strength and flexibility. The environment is one where you feel like family as they really care about your well-being and overall progress. I also love that they listen to my concerns and give feedback when necessary. Special thanks to the Peoria Heights Athletico Staff!

Experiencia negativa: I had been to Athletico Physical Therapy centers. Their patient and trainer ratio is too high. I didn't get the enough attention and wait for the trainer instructions. Athletico is too greedy.

Experiencia fantástica: First of all, I have to say in the last 6 years I haven't been able to find anyone to help me with my situation. Kirk is an absolutely amazing physical therapist and always finding new ways to help his patients. He is very knowledgeable and creative when it comes to my treatments. I would highly recommend anyone to this clinic. Hands down, he is top on my list when it comes to Doctors/Therapist. Not only that, his staff makes it very welcoming and fun to be there. Everyone has a great attitude and fun personalities.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this facility! Front desk staff is always so friendly, and everyone there is knowledgeable/helpful. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Really like Ppeoria Heights Kurt is so respectful and caring for his people. Emily is Awsome. She’s the greatest therapist I’ve ever had.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming to this location for a little over 2 months now and could not be more pleased. Dr. Kirk C. has been my primary therapist and he is quite knowledgeable, listens to my questions/concerns and provides helpful insight. I appreciate his patience and demeanor. I have had PT in the past and it was not as positive of an experience as this time. The rest of the office staff at this location has also been very helpful and friendly. I have recommended them to others and will continue to do so. A+

Experiencia fantástica: I'm truly happy to have found them. It's ALWAYS so pleasant and come spirit . I'm going to make sure I tell others about this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice stuff

Experiencia fantástica: The therapists were always encouraging and my physical therapy exercises were challenging and effective. I improved and returned to my baseline much faster than anticipated. I would highly recommend Athletico.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Thank you for helping me and my wife!

Experiencia fantástica: The PT really helped!!! All staff is very professional and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: So happy with my therapy here!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at this facility is super friendly and helpful. They always ask how you feel after the different exercises to make sure you aren’t hurting more. I highly recommend coming here!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband is in Physical Therapy at this location in East Peoria, IL. Everyone is very personable and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: The Athletico team was great to work with, they understood my goals and tailored the program to help me feel comfortable and make great progress. I enjoyed the staff and the camaraderie amongst the team, when you’re there 3x a week working through an injury it was nice to feel comfortable and see the progress you came for! Happy to report graduation from the program and some great new warm ups for the gym.

Experiencia fantástica: Coming here was Really Helpful after my car accident . They took their time with me and gave me really helpful exercises to help me and my neck pain . HIGHLY recommended!!

Experiencia fantástica: I am grateful and blessed to have had my physical therapy at this location. The staff was kind, friendly, patient, knowledgeable and sincere. I received excellent care! Thank you to Kirk, Lane, Selena, Eric, Sarah, Beth, Santanique, Shelley and Sara for giving me hope. Team Athletico in Peoria Heights is the BEST!

Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable and work hard to make you better. Thank you for making me stronger and better

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and great staff Very knowledgeable would recommend to anyone

Experiencia fantástica: They were the only place willing to work with me, since I am from out of town. They worked with my school schedule and they have been nothing but enthusiastic to help me. Unlike most places in the area who dismissed me or didn't want to work with my schedule.

Experiencia fantástica: Selena was great. When I sustained additional injuries, she adapted, and added additional therapies. I was almost sad to 'graduate' from therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I really felt like my physical therapist kirk Johnson is doing an amazing job and I would recommend him to anyone that needs physical therapy and Shelly went above and beyond to help me navigate the whole scheduling and insurance process Thanks Athletico Peoria Heights you rock

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is friendly and super helpful! Very personalized experience every time. The front desk woman, Shelly is always super quick to greet me :) The physical therapist is amazing also.

Experiencia fantástica: I was so pleased with how much stronger and confident I felt after working with therapists Kirk and Celina. And the staff is so friendly. I was looking for a reset and to work out some problem areas, and that was accomplished. Thank you so much. Highly recommend these professional and knowledgeable physical therapists.

Experiencia fantástica: A great place for all your physical therapy needs. Awesome staff to top it off!

Experiencia fantástica: Athletico on Prospect gets my highest rating. I have made excellent progress over the past several weeks. Kirk, my therapist, is truly professional—he assessed my condition, laid out a plan, made sure I understood the plan and bought in, and then he executed our plan and I have seen the results. I am highly satisfied.

Experiencia fantástica: I have to give this establishment a five star review. From the minute you walk in the receptionist, Shelly, makes you feel that you’re definitely in the right place. The professionalism of Kirk, my PT, makes me feel special and wants the best outcome for me. He continues to push me in the right direction.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to this location by a friend and am so thankful to encounter a friendly caring facility. Kirk, my PT, mostly worked with me to relieve me of low back and sciatica pain. I'm telling you, if one thing didn't work he always had another idea up his sleeve. He is professional and so knowledgeable. Kirk also took on the goal to improve my osteoporosis bones by challenging my muscles with RBF therapy - another area in his expertise. I have many more tools in my box to hopefully keep me pain free and learned how much more I need to stay in shape.

Experiencia fantástica: The team is working on our Aunts LSVT-BIG Therapy for her Parkinson’s disease. They are very knowledgeable on this type of treatment and pleasant to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly staff. Front door parking. Easy appointments. My therapist is moatly hands on and is excellent.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff here are very friendly and provide great service. They are always busy but that don’t stop them from helping out and they’re never rushing you. Best of all if the plan they had for your therapy didn’t work they will work on a different one. They want you to walk out their doors pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff at this location. I really appreciate Kirk’s philosophy of keeping his athletes playing as much as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I had rotator cuff surgery many months ago, but didn't go to Athletico-Prospect Heights for my rehab. I went elsewhere due to reasons I won't go in to here, but it had nothing to do with Athletico. I deeply regret that decision, so I quit the other place and went to Athletico instead. I just wish I had listened to myself and gone there in the first place. You see, I had knee replacement surgery in another town in 2017, and Athletico there did an absolutely superb job! Now we have to do the best we can with the shoulder here in Peoria because of so much lost time and inadequate PT at the first place i went to. I just love the Athletico location here in Peoria even more than I did the first one I went to in the other town. Kirk and Elizabeth know what they're doing, without a doubt, and I fully trust them! Plus, they are so much fun to work with. Then there is Shelley, the person truly in charge at the front desk. She also knows what she's doing, and it feels great to be in competent hands all around. I am even going to mention the part-time aide, Santinique, because she is so much more than "just an aide." Everyone works hard to protect all of us from Covid, cleaning equipment and wearing masks. It's a comfortable atmosphere and everyone is very professional and works well as a team. For anyone complaining about their care here, especially after the fact, has no one but themselves to blame. You have to be part of your own plan and speak up if you disagree or don't understand something, or want to do something a different way. I did, and they were very receptive.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place and staff! They really have helped my mom after her total knee replacement! Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is super friendly, caring, and knowledgeable about what is going on throughout the entire process. Will work with you to make you feel welcomed, as well as accommodate to all of your scheduling needs as best as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at the Peoria Heights location is so helpful and accommodating. The therapists listen to your needs and concerns. I went for a pinched nerve in my neck and TMJ, and the plan they determined I would benefit from was successful! Five stars earned and deserved.

Experiencia fantástica: Than you Athletico for the quick turn around in the healing of my ankle. I walked in limping ,you knew what to do right away.You have been great with scheduling appointments.Thank you Mr. Kirk for your help.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to this location by a friend and am so thankful to encounter a friendly caring facility. Kirk, my PT, mostly worked with me to relieve me of low back and sciatica pain. I'm telling you, if one thing didn't work he always had another idea up his sleeve. He is professional and so knowledgeable. Kirk also took on the goal to improve my osteoporosis bones by challenging my muscles with RBF therapy - another area in his expertise. I have many more tools in my box to hopefully keep me pain free and learned how much more I need to stay in shape.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is super nice and welcoming! Clinicians are very knowledge and forthcoming about treatment expectations.

Experiencia fantástica: Kirk did a great job of assessing and identifying root cause for some knee pain I was having while running. He has equipped me with exercises and knowledge to help me be more well rounded with my fitness. He is very knowledgeable, and I would highly recommend him to other runners looking to improve their form/fitness. The only criticism would be that he was kept very busy. It seems the great care could be further improved by increased PT/patient ratio.

Experiencia fantástica: My wife has had progress at the Peoria Heights Athletico location. The staff were all extremely kind and helpful. I would recommend this location to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: This is Margaret Gibbs using my husband Dave's gmail! I believe this is the greatest physical therapy facility and staff I've ever used. Shelly and Dr. Kirk are the ones who makes this place work well! A+

Experiencia fantástica: Quality & Expertise! Kirk and Elizabeth are both amazing! Shelly, the receptionist is very pleasant and welcoming as well! I have not felt better in a very long time! I highly recommend this team of Physical therapist and will be back if I ever need it!

Experiencia fantástica: The people that work here are very very professional and curtious, and actually listen to the patients and assess treatment after assessment. Very excellent place to do physical therapy. I highly recommend it.

Experiencia fantástica: The team there gave me a great recovery experience. We discussed my activity goals and challenged me work towards those goals. Scheduling was easy and flexible when I needed to adjust.

Experiencia fantástica: Most of my interactions were with Shelly or Kirk. They earned the 5 star review. They handled all my concerns and questions with patience and knowledge. Athletico (as a company) seemed to have a good amount of equipment. The facility was generally clean. Any issues pertaining to Covid and mask policies were handled immediately. I will say if you need physical therapy, Kirk can help you. He is extremely knowledgeable and a great communicator. The better you can describe the issues, the better he can help. Shelly was also an exceptional person to be around. Her warm demeanor can really cheer you up. I wish there was a Shelly everywhere I went! Although I reviewed Athletico as 5 stars, I do believe there is room for improvement. It seems like the company is more likely to understaff instead of having multiple therapists on hand. Again, Kirk is probably the best there ever was, and I never felt like my needs weren't met, but Athletico keeps him busy. Another issue I had was the location of the facility. Starbucks creates a lot of traffic and makes the parking lot entrance/exit very congested. Be careful!

Experiencia fantástica: The entire staff at the Peoria Heights Athletico office is absolutely incredible. The first time I called to find out information for my mom's physical therapy, Shelly not only had answers for me immediately, she also took care of reaching out to mom's Doctor, insurance & all the paperwork needed to get mom's P.T. started the same week..Honestly I just say enough..Elizabeth comes to mom's once a week and I bring her once a week now..She & Kirk are excellent & experienced with working with the elderly and helping build their strength and work so well on their weaknesses..My mom has exceeded more than we ever expected and continues to do better every week..learning how to get up off the ground & maintaining better balance and core strength..which she could never do before..We are truly blessed for this Athletico Team of incredible people!!!! I Highly Highly recommend this life changing office!!

Experiencia fantástica: What a great facility with an awesome staff! Everyone is friendly, kind, helpful, and professional. The equipment is clean, in great shape, and it's clear that they take safety protocols very seriously. I'm getting excellent care and am grateful to be working with Elizabeth and Kirk. Shout-out to Shelly for dealing with my out-of-state insurance and being the best scheduler ever. Thanks, Athletico!

Experiencia fantástica: Athletico Physical Therapy in Peoria Heights they are awesome they are just like family to me I came in for theraphy in July and from that day on they all helped me Shelly is so helpful love her Kirk worked so hard to help me thru all my issues adore him and Elizabeth she rocks they all helped me when my Aunt passed away they really care about me I highly suggest them for all your Physical Theraphy Needs

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with Kirk for 3 months before and after my ACL surgery. He is a fantastic therapist who really knows what he's doing and really makes sure to care for you as the patient. Elizabeth was also fantastic to work with when I got to be with her, and of course it was always nice to be greeted by Shelly at the door and on the phone.

Experiencia fantástica: Kirk at the Peoria Heights Athletico is amazing. I was hesitant to go to therapy due to pain from my frozen shoulder. Kirk designed a therapy program to meet my specific needs. I am very pleased with my progress as my mobility has improved greatly. Shelley always welcomes me, and has addressed all my scheduling and billing questions.

Experiencia fantástica: Have multiple injuries and chronic pain. After 2-3 months of a combination of hands-on therapy by Kirk and some by Elizabeth my improvement was more than expected. The home exercise programs and at the location routines have really helps and will continue to be used at home. Overall, really nice people that really know what they are doing to help me and many others. Thank you the whole staff of Athletico of Peoria Heights. !!!

Experiencia fantástica: Five star service. Help me get the mobility and strength back in my hand. Convenient location, and hours. The people at athletico really care about getting you back to 100%

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent results after knee surgery. Great staff and facility. Thanks Athletico.

Experiencia fantástica: The team is working on our Aunts LSVT-BIG Therapy for her Parkinson’s disease. They are very knowledgeable on this type of treatment and pleasant to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: Phenomenal Staff. Organized, very polite and very professional.

Experiencia fantástica: They have saved me from needing surgery on my foot. I highly recommend using their services!

Experiencia fantástica: Great front desk!! Shelly is the best at her job

Experiencia fantástica: I would highly recommend this therapy office and staff to anyone. They are dedicated to giving 5 star treatment and truly care about your recovery.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is great, awesome ,friendly, energetic and very helpful and caring. Everyone should come in and see for yourself.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff are all nice and I feel better everyday because of the great care they give.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome help with running pain. Strongly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great experience the staff are very friendly (Shelly) aka the best ever and the therapist there are very knowledgeable and helpful as well

Experiencia negativa: Be sure to ask pricing in advance. I have the impression that they set up repeating sessions based only on profit motive. In my case they set up six visits so that I could do lunges and squats in their facility and then charged me $482/hour. It wasn’t even one-on-one attention as the therapist had 3-4 other patients to monitor concurrently. My condition didn’t require any hands-on manipulation so I think it was unethical for them recommend so many visits simply to give me a list of jumping jacks and skipping to do in their office hallway.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Kirk treated me for plantar fasciitis. He is knowledgeable and professional, and very caring. Shelly was very pleasant and helpful for scheduling and insurance questions.

Experiencia fantástica: I suffered a heel injury from a running workout this summer, and Kirk evaluated the injury and gave me some physical therapy exercises. I am pleased to report that my injury has healed, and I ran a 4 mile race 32 seconds faster than last year (when I had no injuries). Thank you for all your help!

Experiencia fantástica: All the staff here is wonderful. Lane, Kirk, Shelly and Cassidy have treated me very nice all from the start of my visits. I spent 5 months with an injury to my left foot that had failed to get any better and after starting therapy I have had a number of improvements. A couple set backs but a number of good steps going forward. Without them I would still be back at square one.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a treatment appointment and tried to cancel due to a severe headache. I spoke with Kirk the therapist and he adviced me to still come in. When i arrived Shelly took me in right away and started treatment for my headache! By the time i was finished with treatment my headache was completely gone! It was such a relief after suffering all day and I cannot thank him enough! I would highly reccomend this company to anyone of my friends or family! My treatment for my car accident is going well! Slowly recovering but progress is happeneing for me and i am feeling so much better! Shelly, Kirk, Lane, Logan, Trey and Casidy have been treating me and i couldnt be happier! Thank you!!!!! Patrick R. Cannon

Experiencia fantástica: I would recommend this facility to everyone needing therapy .Everyone was very professional, polite, understanding of my needs after my stroke. Thank you Shelley , Sherry for working with me during this trying time. God Bless

Experiencia fantástica: All the folks at the Heights location are absolutely wonderful. Shelby does a great job checking insurance and scheduling appointments. Kirk, my physical therapist has already brought me to a measurable Improvement. The intern, Trey, is an absolute delight!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was great. Shelly at front desk was awesome with appointments and communication. Kirk and staff were always on time, informative and helped me in my post surgery recovery. Thank you!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. They go the extra step to accommodate their clients and express concern to provide them with great care. Thank you to the Athletico team in Peoria Heights for all you do!

Experiencia fantástica: Kirk has been wonderful helping to get rid of my shin splints and improving my running form. All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend to anyone needing any type of PT.

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love coming here for therapy. They have taken care of me pre and post op for knee surgery. Got me back to work in minimal time after surgery. Kirk is amazing and Shelley is so nice and bubbly every time I’ve come in.
