Chicago Physical Therapy
Chicago Physical Therapy
As one of the leading home health care service companies in Chicago, we aim to educate our clients on making important care management choices. This is particularly important when it comes to deciding on a physical therapy provider tasked with developing an effective care regimen in conjunction with a physician’s specific treatment plan.
The goal is to help the patient recuperate from an illness or significant injury in which mobility has been severely impacted and rehabilitative therapies are critical for regaining a normal life. At Anuco Home Health care services, our representatives are dedicated to ensuring that each patient receives the most caring and competent post acute care possible.
Physical therapy is often one of the primary components of care for reaching that goal. A therapist performs a variety of physical therapy movements and exercises to help the patient regain complete functionality in the parts of the body that have lost that capability. These exercises take place in the patient’s home.
The Duties of a Physical Therapist
Any time you have to find a physical therapist, you want to be sure you are hiring someone who is licensed and trained to evaluate and treat dysfunction in physical movement. A good physical therapist will have the knowledge and expertise to diagnose a problem and provide treatment to increase and improve what has become a limited range of movement due to injury, illness or some other health condition.
The healing process can be a long road to recovery, one that is fraught with setbacks and challenges. Patience and experience are critical to success and a good physical therapist will understand how to guide a patient through every phase of the process and provide supporting treatments that might be necessary to achieve the goals of recovery.
Our team of physical therapists evaluate each patient on a case-by-case basis, in collaboration with the assistance of the Primary Care Physician and other healthcare professionals who are familiar with the patient’s situation.
The Benefits of Physical Therapy
Licensed physical therapists evaluate the condition of the patient and then develop the best treatment plan to overcome those challenges. Physical therapy can be a useful ally for healing and a beneficial alternative to other more conventional treatment options.

We can review your medical history and provide specialty therapies to target the source of your limited capability for movement and correct the dysfunction that exists.
Targeted Healthcare with Physical Therapy
Physical therapy can treat conditions of all types. Physical therapists are trained to provide a physical exam in which the movement of the patient is evaluated for range of flexibility in the muscles and joints. A diagnosis is offered, treatment options reviewed, and a plan for care developed.
Providing care for both the short-term and the long-term incorporates a designed regimen of physical therapy that directly targets the condition preventing full movement and mobility of the patient. This plan for treatment may be the primary method of care or work as an ancillary form of care to assist in the healing process of a wide range of health issues and conditions.
The following are some of the most common health challenges that can be addressed through comprehensive physical therapy treatments:
-
- Many types of hand conditions from carpal tunnel syndrome to flexor tendon injuries among many others.
- Musculoskeletal conditions such as back pain, arthritis, physical trauma and injury, osteoporosis, joint and replacement recuperation, and TMJ disorder among others.
- Pediatric conditions that affect movement and development including Down syndrome, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, and cerebral palsy.
- Sports-related conditions including minor and major sports injuries, including concussions.
- Cardiopulmonary conditions including cystic fibrosis, post-myocardial infarction, and pulmonary disorders.
- Neurological conditions ranging from traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury to multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease, among other such conditions.
- Pelvic Floor conditions that affect female health as well as treating issues such as urinary incontinence and lymphedema
