ATI Physical Therapy Opens Clinic in LA Fitness South Loop

ATI Physical Therapy announces the opening of its second location inside an LA Fitness health club, offering members convenient access to physical therapy and complimentary screenings from the nation’s leading provider. The new clinic is located in Chicago’s South Loop inside the LA Fitness club at 1101 S. Canal Street, and was preceded by the opening of a location inside an LA Fitness club in Oak Brook in September.

Patrick Manrique, PT, DPT, CSCS, has been named clinic director of the new location. A five-year veteran of ATI, he received his bachelor’s degree from Virginia Tech in 2001, and continued his education at the University of Miami, earning his Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2010. Additionally, he is a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, Credentialed Clinical Instructor and has certifications for Functional Movement Screening 1 and Dry Needling. Patrick enjoys treating a variety of orthopedic conditions, with a special interest in post-operative patients, sports injuries, vestibular and balance, and amputee rehabilitation. In his spare time, he trains and competes in triathlons.

“We are excited to be working with LA Fitness, keeping its members active with easy access to industry-leading treatments and patient-centered care,” said Bari Ardell, Regional Director at ATI. “For those experiencing aches or pains during or after activity, we offer complimentary screenings. Members can stop by ATI’s LA Fitness South Loop clinic and visit Patrick to schedule a screening. He’ll take a look at your injury and provide suggestions or recommendations for further care, if appropriate.”

“We are very pleased to add the availability of the services ATI provides to our busy South Loop club. The professional manner in which they deliver those services is in perfect alignment with what we want to provide and how we believe it should be delivered,” said Bill Horner, Sr. Vice President/Chief Real Estate Officer of LA Fitness.

ATI offers expanded hours and accepts virtually all major insurance carriers. Unique to the industry, ATI’s dedicated in-house research department aims to improve patient outcomes through basic science, research and evidence-based medicine. This includes the ATI Patient Outcomes Registry, a collection of data that supports an innovative approach to physical therapy that improves awareness of patient outcomes and how the rehabilitative process can impact patients’ quality of life.
