Guest Biography

Prior to establishing Naperville Physical Therapy, Mary managed a hospital-affiliated rehabilitation clinic in Elmhurst, where she was raised. Since graduating in 1988, she has concentrated her practice in orthopedic and sports rehabilitation with a special interest in fibromyalgia/chronic pain and sports injuries. Mary participated in volleyball as a collegiate athlete and as a high school and grade school coach. She is a certified specialist in ASTYM, a highly effective treatment for chronic tendonitis. Mary is the proud mother of Sean, Colin and Kathryn.

“The physical therapy profession has gone through many changes in the 25 plus years that I have been an active member of it. I am truly grateful every day that I own FYZICAL Therapy and Balance Centers – Naperville, not only for the phenomenal staff that have chosen to work for my husband Gary and me, but for the amazing patients that continue to surprise and lift up our practice in more ways than I can mention."

For the past 20 years, we have been on the leading edge of the latest technologies at FYZICAL (formerly Naperville Physical Therapy).

  • In 1994, we were one of the first privately owned clinics in Naperville. Today, we are now the longest lasting clinic in Naperville.
  • In 1996, we became the first clinic in the area to offer lymphedema treatments.
  • In 2001, we were the first clinic in the Western suburbs to be certified in the ASTYM process, the first tool assisted technology that no one else was providing at the time.
  • In 2003, we became one of the first therapy clinics in Naperville to offer custom foot orthotics.
  • In 2010, we had one of the first trained dry needling therapists in the state.
  • In 2011, we had one of the first Schroth trained therapists in the state.
  • In 2013, we became the first therapy clinic to offer the nutraMetrix supplement line to patients.
  • In 2014, we became the first FYZICAL clinic in Illinois.

All of these additions were based on thorough research, significant training and sometimes a gut feeling. At FYZICAL we have established a highly experienced staff in a state-of-the-art clinic that truly cares for the entire patient not just a broken body part.

My life's work is health and wellness. I feel so fortunate to be able to help others improve their quality of life inside and outside of the hospital setting.

TEACHING PEOPLE ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE HEALTH BENEFITS OF CBD/HEMP AND HOW TO GET INVOLVED IN THIS REVOLUTIONARY INDUSTRY

I have been involved in the health/wellness industry for over 20 years as a Registered Nurse at a major University Medical Center in Chicago Illinois. For the past two years, I have been researching cannabis as it relates to overall health, I have seen it profoundly change lives, and I have integrated it successfully into a thriving business as an Independent Founding and International Founding Affiliate with the leading company in the industry, PrimeMyBody (PMB). PMB's products are formulated by world renowned Dr. Christopher Shade of Quicksilver, and Chief Medical Advisor, Dr Cheng Ruan, who runs the second largest Integrative Medicine clinic in the US who accepts insurance, second only to the Cleveland clinic. PMB has the only true nano/liposomal hemp oil available on the market and is the first hemp MLM company to make an aggressive move internationally into Japan/Taiwan and soon into Mexico, Germany, and Canada.
