They work on making the whole body stronger along with transitioning you into the many awesome classes they have. If you have any Insurance questions Kate is the best at figuring it all out. You wont be disappointed ❤💯👍🏻

I have MS and have received PT at many different locations including the Shirley Ryan ability lab.
Core fitness is the best by far.
The Pilate based physical therapy is very beneficial. My physiatrist is impressed because there are not many physical therapists available with expertise in this area.
Also, the continuity of care is extremely important. After your course of physical therapy is complete, the classes and individual sessions provide the opportunity to achieve your goals of total body healing and Strengthening.
Thank You Core fitness and PT for helping me to remain independent and

As one of the owner’s first patients, I have relied on CORE to take care of my aches and pains for more than fifteen years.
I have watched CORE deservedly grow to the fabulous operation that it is today.
The personal professionalism of the entire staff and the exceptional environment created in the new facility make any activity truly enjoyable.

I have done several of the workout classes: the reformer and Pilates and loved it. You work all the small muscles you don’t even know you have, great focus on the core as well. The instructors are all so friendly and accommodating. The front desk has always made me feel welcome and answered all my questions since I was new to the practice. I also had the best massage there as well, can’t wait to return. There is something for everyone at core!

Core has been amazing in helping my husband rehabilitate and feel better overall! I loved the flexibility in scheduling and when I needed assistance on billing or insurance issues or just had questions, the office staff was prompt and considerate with their feedback. I can’t wait to try out some of their fitness classes!
