Patient Testimonials

I received excellent care at Impact PT all the way from the receptionist who efficiently scheduled me, to my therapist who guided me with expert advice and attention. If I need PT again, Impact is my first choice.

I have been having therapy at Impact for the last couple of years. The staff there is very helpful and supportive. I’ve been working with Tammy for some back issues and she’s been great. I highly recommend Impact!

After suffering with excruciating plantar fasciitis for over two years, I honestly wasn't sure I'd ever get back to normal. Then I started working with Bob Staszak at Impact Therapy, and in just four weeks he completely changed the trajectory of my recovery. Bob is knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in helping his patients heal. He took the time to understand what was causing my pain, explained every step of the treatment plan, and gave me practical exercises that actually worked. For the first time in years, I can walk without constant pain. If you've been struggling with plantar fasciitis or any stubborn injury, I can't recommend Bob highly enough. His expertise and care made all the difference. Thank you, Bob, for helping me get my life back!

Janelle was recommended by my doctor. She is extremely knowledgeable and personable. The therapies that she has included are needling and manually stretching my legs and hips. I have only seen Janelle a couple of times, but already I understand why my doctor recommended her.

Impact's Hinsdale clinic is top notch. The therapists are all very knowledgeable. They got me back on the golf course following multiple meniscus and capsule tears in my knee last year, and they are currently helping me through a rotator cuff and shoulder issue.

I was suffering from increasing pain in my right shoulder and left thumb, despite taking yoga and Pilates classes. Plus I regularly massage my hands with a soft MELT ball. After ruling out psoriatic arthritis (having been diagnosed with the guttate form from early childhood thru my 60's) my primary care physician suggested physical therapy. She highly recommended Impact PT & Sports Recovery. Janelle was my therapist. For the shoulder I demonstrated where the pain exists and my range of motion. Janelle was able to find the root cause being an issue with the infraspinatus muscle that caused the top of the bicep muscle to overcompensate, causing the pain. With massage, manipulation and exercises I found almost immediate relief. After 4 sessions, along with her prescribed exercises to do at home I am 99% better. I rarely feel pain in my shoulder. The thumb took a bit more work to resolve the pain. Janelle massaged the left shoulder, a portion of my left arm and finally manipulated the thumb by pulling on the thumb joints, to create more space for the synovial fluid surrounding them. We also went thru exercises to increase hand and wrist flexibility. After 4 sessions, along doing her prescribed exercises at home, in addition to continuing massaging my hand with a soft MELT ball, my thumb joint feels much better. When I feel pain (and it doesn't consistently occur), I gently pull on the thumb joints and it greatly helps. I highly recommend Impact Physical Therapy & Sports Recovery.

I absolutely love Kanita!!! She has helped me tremendously with my neck, shoulder issues. I am still working with her on my issues. Every PT session I am 100% better. 💕

Very professional, creating routines that are beneficial and attuned to the patient's physical needs.

My first experience with PT and it’s been remarkable!!! Courtney is professional and everything I’ve done has been remarkable!! Courtney is truly the best, I feel 100 oercent better after each session

I came to Impact Physical Therapy & Sports Recovery (Naperville location) suffering from stubborn plantar fasciitis and received excellent care from Brendon. He developed a personalized treatment plan combining manual therapy with targeted exercises, which significantly alleviated my foot pain and restored my mobility.

The facility is clean and has a lot of professional physical therapists. Liz especially is very knowledgeable and knows what needs to be done right away. I’m undergoing ACL related rehab and the recovery is on track. Highly recommended for anyone especially sports athletes wanting to get back to fitness.

I had an excellent experience at the impact physical therapy site in Naperville. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.Karen Bertulis, my therapist, is an excellent therapist and provided me with necessary exercises during my 10 week visits with her.

I worked with Karin for 10 weeks on some strength, mobility, and running-related concerns. She taught me how to relax, work with my body, and gradually build the strength I needed to reach my goals. Ten weeks of regular appointments was a commitment, but I actually started looking forward to each session because I always felt challenged and supported and could see myself getting stronger. (Having Trader Joe’s and Starbucks nearby also made the drive a little more enjoyable!) As a busy parent, making time for my own health is always a challenge. Karin helped me find small, realistic changes I could incorporate into my life that have had a lasting impact. By my 10th session, I left feeling stronger and more confident in my body than I had in a long time. I also had a running gait analysis with Bill, which was tremendously useful. In just 30 minutes, I came away with four clear areas to work on to reduce my risk of injury and improve my running performance. I highly recommend the gait analysis at this location, especially for anyone training for a marathon! Lastly, what makes this place so special is that everyone, from the providers to the front desk staff, is caring, collaborative, and knowledgeable. It’s rare to find a place where you can come for different needs and consistently feel so well taken care of.

I really appreciate the wholistic approach to physical therapy. While my hip is the main issue, Gretchen considers my feet, knees, hips and back and creates plans that address the whole complex involved in movement.

Drew is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and encouraging to our son as he has physical therapy. Our son actually looks forward to going to every session and has improved after 3 visits.

Mat is an excellent Doctor of physical therapy!! He has a very precise and outstanding knowledge base for his patients. He listens well and finds the appropriate modality to help him heal his patients. New updated review: Doctor Matt Wesolowski is an exceptional and outstanding Physical Therapist. When I first met him, I couldn’t even lift one pound of weight with my right arm. Now after only a couple of months of his manual therapy and his specially tailored made therapeutic exercises; have helped me to now lift weights up to 16 pounds. Matt is very patient with me and has slowly but steadily helped me to reduce my pain issues. I have had pain and reduced strength in my head, neck, and right arm for over 30 years. Now I’m so much better. Will be working on proprioceptive skills soon. I believe Impact Physical Therapy is a very professional and well staffed establishment. Kathleen Susan Nale

Drew is a professional, personable, and patient Physical Therapist. I'm making progress! Thanks!

07/09/2026 Due to recurring plantar fasciitis sxs and now tingling down my left leg to foot, I returned to Impact-South Loop, working with PT Alex. During course of treatment, further testing ( MRI) identified low back problems. Alex broadened the scope of my PT to address this identified additional problem. In addition, I received a lot of education about new limitations with future exercising and about learning to accept those limitations- not something I wanted to hear! I completed PT in May, 2026. I’m appreciative and very satisfied with the care I received. I’m working on those limitations and figuring out new ways to workout. Also, a shout out to the front desk staff and the knowledgeable PT techs for all of your help. Thanks for your support.

My go-to place. They really know what they’re doing and understand running. All the therapists I have seen here are amazing

Superb physical therapists

roma is the best ! explains everything to me in english and not doctor speak so i understand it. listens to how i'm feeling and what's happening and knows exactly what to do to help. there's not a better physical therapist around !

I had such a great experience working with Daniel and other staff members! He was always super positive and encouraging. He helped me understand what was going on with my Achilles and why I was having pain instead of just telling me what exercises to do. He also taught me a lot about how to prevent it from happening again through different stretches and exercises. I definitely feel like I learned a lot while also getting better. I really enjoyed working with him and would definitely recommend this place!

I can’t recommend Impact Physical Therapy enough! Over the past six months, I worked with Dan to recover from back surgery. When I first started, I was dealing with significant strength loss in my left leg and persistent nerve pain, but Dan did a phenomenal job guiding me all the way back to 100%. He took the extra time, showed genuine care, and really connected with me throughout my recovery. The front office staff is top-notch as well, always friendly, welcoming, and easy to deal with. From day one, everyone at Impact made sure I felt supported and truly cared for. If you are looking for a physical therapy team that delivers incredible results and treats you right, this is the place to go. Thanks, Dan and team!

This is the fourth time I needed physical therapy in the past 10 years and I wish I found Impact the very first time. I highly recommend Impact. Leo and Monica are outstanding Therapists, also the rest of the staff are amazing.

I had been struggling with debilitating TMJ , and Paul Thomas at the Lakeview location has worked wonders in a few short weeks! This was my my first experience with dry needling, but the skilled use of them along with exercises has helped more than I could have hoped. Staff in general are incredibly friendly and I've really enjoyed my time here and know when my next PT needs arrive I'll be back!

The manual massage before the exercises was a surprising step but seemed to speed recovery.

Impact Physical Therapy in Lakeview has a terrific staff that has helped me through two hip replacements, thoughtful and good listeners that has helped restore and build up my strength for the years ahead. Can't thank them enough for their good work!

The therapist is very careful in assessing the issues with wooziness and balance that I am having .. Highly recommend this establishment Early in treatment but I believe it’s helping already.
