Nothing beats a morning where movement, community, and purpose all come together 💙🏃‍♂️

Our team had the best time participating in the 30th Annual presented by x —one of Chicago’s most loved neighborhood traditions since 1996. From fast finishes to friendly faces, the energy was unmatched.

Even more meaningful, this race supports Ravenswood Community Services, helping provide meals and groceries to neighbors in need right here on the north side. That’s a cause we’re always proud to stand behind.

We loved connecting with runners, handing out MJPT swag, and offering free injury screens to help keep this amazing community moving strong.

Already looking forward to next year 🙌

🎉 Happiest Birthday to our owner & founder, Dr. Matthew Johnson! 🎉

This past year has been a big one—Dr. Matthew successfully completed his residency in electrodiagnostics, continuing his mission to elevate patient care and transform the healthcare experience.

Because of his dedication and vision, we now offer advanced electrodiagnostic testing right here in our clinic, including Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) studies.

His goal has always been simple:
✨ Improve the healthcare system
✨ Enhance the patient experience
✨ Deliver faster, more accurate answers

With these tools, we’re able to reduce wait times, streamline care for providers, and give our patients the most precise diagnoses—so they can get back to doing what they love, faster.

Dr. Johnson is one of the few licensed physical therapists in Illinois trained in these advanced diagnostic techniques, and we are so proud to have him leading the way.

Join us in wishing Dr. Johnson the happiest birthday! 🎂👏
Here’s to another year of innovation, growth, and changing lives💙

✨ Introducing the NEUBIE® Neuro-Bio-Electric Stimulator at ✨

We’re excited to bring NEUBIE technology into our clinic to elevate the care we provide our patients.

The NEUBIE is a cutting-edge neuromuscular electrical stimulation device that uses direct current to communicate with your nervous system—helping us identify dysfunctional movement patterns, activate inhibited muscles, and retrain the body more efficiently.

🔹 Who benefits?
• Chronic pain
• Acute injuries
• Post-surgical rehab
• Nerve-related symptoms
• Muscle weakness or movement limitations

🔹 How it helps:
✔️ Improves muscle activation
✔️ Enhances neuromuscular control
✔️ Reduces pain & inflammation
✔️ Accelerates recovery

This means smarter rehab, better movement, and faster results—all tailored to YOU.

📍 Ask your PT if NEUBIE is right for your plan of care.

What is MSK Ultrasound and why It may be a better option for you than an MRI? 🧐

MSK (musculoskeletal) ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging tool that lets us see your muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints in real time — all without radiation.💥

Why choose MSK ultrasound over an MRI?
    •    Real-Time Movement: Watch joints, tendons, and muscles as they move — MRI can’t do that.
    •    Instant Results: Images are reviewed on the spot.
    •    More Comfortable: No loud machines or tight spaces.
    •    Cost-Effective: Often 60–70% less expensive than an MRI.
    •    Better for Guided Care: Excellent for guidance and dynamic assessments.

Backed by Research:
Studies show that MSK ultrasound has diagnostic accuracy comparable to MRI in many cases — particularly for rotator cuff tears, tendon injuries, and joint inflammation.
(Source: European Journal of Radiology, 2015)

MSK ultrasound helps us give you a clearer picture of your pain — and a faster path to healing.

This and many other reasons is why has added this effective diagnostic tool to our practice!
