My husband and I have been going to Northern Rehab for many years due to a variety of medical issues. We are so lucky to have such dedicated, caring professionals!Carleine S.
Very professional and courteous team! Chris is the physical therapist whom worked with me to improve my left shoulder/arm. In the beginning I wasn't sure how helpful physical therapy could be, but it has worked wonders on my shoulder/arm and is back to normal again since my injury. Along with exercises at the facility, you would have some to take home as well that you can work on. Chris and the team here goes above and beyond to help you, and to be sure you're comfortable, and seeing improvements. Highly recommend!Morgan A.
THE best rehab place, PERIOD! I went through multiple therapy companies and therapists before I finally connected with my therapist in Genoa. I will be a client for life! My quality of life directly relates to my amazing therapist.Jennifer P.
I cannot recommend Northern Rehab highly enough. I have worked with Ken, Aaron and Kristin over many years, and their level of knowledge and clinical expertise is exceptional. They have been instrumental in addressing my chronic neck and back issues through a combination of manual therapy and targeted functional exercises. They have helped with my vertigo issues, as well. Unlike the "one size fits all" PT approach of larger corporate chains, Northern Rehab focuses on customized therapy and individualized care. It is rare to find a physical therapy practice where every provider is skilled, compassionate, dedicated to continued education in their field, and getting you back to feeling your best.Tiffany L.
I am extremely impressed with Todd Vanatta and staff!! Todd is extremely gifted in his profession and a very effective communicator. He makes it look easy and explains in a simple easy going way of communicating. The rest of the staff I have met have been so friendly and helpful. I see a smooth, easy going office that works well as a team. I highly recommend!!!Phil R.
I had previously gone to another physical therapist and switched to Northern Rehab after coming back to DeKalb for school this semester. It was amazing to see the difference in the level of interaction and care, as the staff at Northern Rehab was MUCH friendlier and genuinely cared about my progress. I was always warmly greeted on arrival and thanked when I left which did not go unnoticed. Brandon also always explained the exercises thoroughly so I understood what I was doing and was able to do some of them at home.Karissa J.
I’m extremely satisfied with all aspects of my care at Northern Rehab! Ken worked me through the rehab process like a true professional! I’m back to normal and have a clear path of exercise and stretching to follow for the rest of my life.Jason J.
Todd was highly recommended and it was easy to understand why. He is is very knowledgeable about what he does. I had total confidence that he would help me recover from my surgery! It was a pleasure working with him and would (and have) recommended him and Northern Rehab!JT A.

After having gone to two other physical therapy providers, my expectations for Northern Rehab were not very high but to my surprise, I was assigned to Melissa Beck. Melissa always acted in a very professional manner and was concerned about my condition every time we met. She helped me a great deal and a majority of my pain has lessened. Thank you Melissa and Northern Rehab!Toula K.
Kristin helped me with my dizziness issues! The staff was great, very understanding, easy to work with, and best of all, I feel wonderful now!Julie H.

Aaron Nevdal is amazing! I have seen him off and on for the last two years for overuse injuries on my shoulder, elbow and knee. He is great to work with and is very knowledgeable about orthopedic physical therapy. I would highly recommend! The office staff is very friendly and welcoming. They are so easy to work with. Thanks everyone at Northern Rehab!Elizabeth K.
Top notch friendly and knowledgeable staff, they're very helpful and will take the time to explain the why and what of your injury. I had Todd, Liza and Brandon at the Genoa location. Highly recommended.Chris P.
First of all: 5 Stars! Over the past 5 or 6 years, I have received expert physical therapy from Rob and his superb staff multiple times; each for different ailment. In my experience, when Northern Rehab fixes a problem, it stays fixed. Not only are the source and symptoms of the ailment successfully treated, Rob and company show and tell you how to avoid it in the future. They've educated me about causes and shown me how to exercise, stretch, and go about my days free of pain. My issues have been with muscles, nerves, and joints. Whenever I have a problem, I head for Northern Rehab Physical Therapy. And their friendly informative atmosphere is better than a barbershop. I'll see you there. Years later, .... Thank you again for Northern Rehab! I needed you years ago and you were there. I needed you recently and you are still here! I knew I came to the right place! Thanks, especially to Rob. He's the Man.

Melissa Payne Wagner has been a fantastic physical therapist for me. She helped me to rehab a broken foot, a stressed tendon, and she got me back into hiking condition. I appreciated her knowledge and her helpfulness.Nancy K.
The best part about Northern Rehab Genoa is the happy, positive atmosphere. Even when there is pain and slow progress, there is a feeling of optimism about future relief. The patients and staff interact well together. Cassie, the Genoa receptionist, has been professional and supportive. She is patient and accommodates me when I need to make an appointment change. Melissa, my therapist, has used her thorough knowledge to focus on my problems and challenge me to do more. Her work with me has provided relief for the pain I experienced and has given me confidence that I will continue to improve.Lynn B.
Terrific, caring, skilled professionals! Ken is the best physical therapist in the land! I will continue to brag about and promote Northern Rehab to the people out there who are hurting!Gretchen M.
Brandon did a very good job in getting my problems with my right arm and shoulder taken care of!Barbara D.
There is no comparison as to my strength/stamina from when I started physical therapy and now (3-4 weeks later). Brandon is excellent in assessing the ability of his patients to complete the appropriate exercises and doesn’t push when the patient feels fatigued. He never forgets the “routine” needed. All techs and office staff were helpful and courteous. If needed, I will return to Northern Rehab!Peg M.
Northern Rehab was very personable, treated everyone with respect. It was a nice laid back atmosphere where everyone (all patients too) looked at ease. Terrific staff!Terri C.
Very courteous, friendly, competent and thorough!Charlotte E.
