Urbana, Ill. —Athletico’s newest location will open in the community of Urbana at 114 N. Vine St. Proud to combine with Accelerated Physical Therapy, Athletico is excited to continue their quality of care throughout the state of Illinois.

Services available at Athletico Urbana include:
- Graston Technique® – The Graston Technique® is a soft-tissue release technique that uses six patented stainless steel instruments of different shapes and sizes to fit the body as needed. The instruments are used to detect and treat scar tissue and soft-tissue restrictions that may be contributing to a patient’s symptoms and limiting his or her ability to perform activities of daily living.
