Our Approach
At Back To Health PT, every patient is evaluated and treated by Dr. Renee Spinella, a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy with over 25 years of clinical experience.
You will work with the same physical therapist at every visit, ensuring consistent, personalized care and clear progress toward your goals. Our practice specializes in one-on-one physical therapy, with individualized treatment plans designed to address your specific needs.
Whether your goal is pain relief, returning to work, keeping up with your kids, or safely returning to high-level exercise, we are committed to helping you move better, feel stronger, and get back to the activities you love.
What to Expect
-
Do I need a referral? No. We are a direct access practice, which means you can schedule an appointment without a physician referral.
​
-
​What happens before my first visit? Once we complete an intake call with you, we will send you a series of forms by email to complete. After that, you are all set until your evaluation date.
​​
-
How long is the first visit? Your initial evaluation is 55 minutes. Every session at Back to Health is one-on-one with Dr. Renee — you will never be passed off to an aide or left on your own with a hot pack and a list of exercises. This continuity of care allows Dr. Renee to closely monitor your progress, evaluate your response to treatment, and make real-time, individualized adjustments to your plan of care — ensuring safe, effective, and results-driven physical therapy.
​​
-
What should I wear? Wear whatever you are comfortable in. There is no special dress code — just come as you are.
​
-
Will there be an internal exam? For pelvic floor patients, an internal exam may be recommended as part of your evaluation but it is always optional and will only be performed with your full consent. Dr. Renee will explain everything thoroughly before proceeding so you always feel informed and in control.
​​
-
What conditions do you treat? Back to Health specializes in pelvic floor physical therapy, including conditions related to pelvic pain, incontinence, prenatal and postpartum recovery, and sexual health. Dr. Renee is also a certified McKenzie Method (MDT) practitioner, bringing a highly specialized, evidence-based approach to the treatment of spine and joint conditions. Whether your concerns are pelvic health related or musculoskeletal, you are in exceptionally qualified hands.
​​
-
What does the treatment space look like? All sessions take place in a private treatment room — not an open gym. This allows you to feel relaxed and at ease during your treatment, and gives you the space to talk openly about what you are experiencing and any questions you may have without hesitation.
​​
-
What can I expect after my first visit? You will leave your first appointment with a clear understanding of what is contributing to your symptoms and a personalized plan to address them. Most patients tell us they finally feel heard — and that they wish they had come sooner.
Every visit is one-on-one and focused on identifying the underlying cause of your symptoms so treatment is specific to your body and goals. Call 708-512-5124 today to schedule your appointment.
Care Worth Traveling For
Located in Palos Heights, we serve patients across Orland Park, Tinley Park, and surrounding suburbs who are looking for a more personalized approach to care.
Many choose to travel for one-on-one sessions, unrushed visits, and treatment that’s thoughtfully tailored to their body and goals—not a standardized protocol.
