Athletico Physical Therapy Opens Second Location in Lincoln

LINCOLN, Neb. — Athletico Physical Therapy opened its second location in Lincoln on Monday, April 15th at 200 N. 66th Street. Athletico is looking forward to continuing its quality of care throughout the state of Nebraska.

Athletico East Lincoln is conveniently located in the strip center at 66th and O Street, near Firehouse Subs and Brown’s Shoe Store.

“I love helping patients achieve their goals — from those recovering from a total joint replacement, high school athlete with ankle sprain or returning to sport from ACL injury, or the casual strain/sprain from overuse with daily activity. Getting people back to doing what they love, with quality care, is so rewarding and what I care about,” said Clinic Manager, Darcie Christensen, PT, DPT, ATC. She has been practicing in the Lincoln area for thirteen years and joined Athletico last September.

Services available at Athletico East Lincoln include:

• Physical therapy – Our physical therapists treat you to reduce pain, improve or restore mobility, and to help you remain at your optimal health without further risk of injury. We also offer joint replacement therapy, headache treatment, concussion therapy and more.
• Free assessments – If you have a strain, sprain or nagging pain, you can see one of our experts for a free, 30-minute assessment. We evaluate your injury and recommend treatment. Please note, restrictions apply.
• Work injuries – We are committed to helping everyone practice safety at work. Our workers’ compensation specialists are trained to assess workplace environments and worker behaviors to provide customized intervention techniques and programs. In addition to treating injuries that occur on the job, our services include work conditioning, ergonomics, post-offer/pre-employment testing and more.
• Headache rehabilitation – Our headache specialists provide treatment for headaches that fall into the cervicogenic and migraine categories. Physical therapy can decrease and/or resolve the intensity and frequency of headache symptoms, as well as improve your function, mobility and quality of life.
• Functional Movement Screens™ – This screen identifies functional limitations in athletes so that our experts can design exercises to address the issue. This can help you improve athletic performance and minimize the risk of future injury.
• Manual therapy – Also known as hands-on physical therapy, our experts use only their hands while performing skilled, specific hands-on techniques to apply pressure to the soft tissues of the body. This treatment can help relax muscles, increase circulation and reduce tissue inflammation.
• ACL 3P Program – Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears sideline more than 200,000 athletes each year. Our ACL 3P clinicians are committed to helping you minimize the risk of these injuries, as well as helping athletes who have sustained ACL injuries progress through rehabilitation to perform at their highest level.
