Full Job Description

Build a Physical Therapy Career Where You Can Grow Your Skills and Explore Pelvic Health

You became a Physical Therapist to help people move better, feel stronger, reduce pain, and return to the activities that matter most to them.

At Northwest Wellness Group, you will have the clinical freedom to do that work thoughtfully while continuing to grow your skills as a Physical Therapist.

This is an opportunity for a clinician who enjoys individualized patient care, wants to continue developing their orthopedic skills, and may also be interested in expanding into pelvic health Physical Therapy.

You do not need to be an experienced pelvic floor specialist to apply.

If you are an orthopedic Physical Therapist, a newer clinician, or a PT who has been interested in learning more about pelvic health, this is an opportunity to continue building your orthopedic foundation while gaining exposure to an additional specialty area.

What You Will Receive

Compensation and Benefits

Salary up to $95,000 annually
401(k)
401(k) matching
Health insurance
Paid time off
Opportunities for advancement
Wellness resources
Free snacks

A Schedule Built for Better Work-Life Balance

Monday through Friday schedule
8 or 10-hour shift options
No on-call responsibilities
Full-time position in Arlington Heights, Illinois
Consistent outpatient clinic environment
Supportive team focused on quality patient care and professional development

Build Strong Orthopedic Physical Therapy Skills

Your orthopedic caseload will give you the opportunity to work with a variety of patient needs and continue strengthening your clinical reasoning.

You may treat patients with:

Orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions
Neck and back pain
Shoulder, hip, and knee conditions
Foot and ankle injuries
Post-operative rehabilitation needs
Sports and activity-related injuries
Strength and mobility limitations
Chronic pain
Movement dysfunction
Patients returning to work, exercise, recreation, and daily activity

You will have the freedom to evaluate each patient, develop an individualized plan of care, and progress treatment based on clinical findings and functional goals.

Your treatment approach may include:

Manual therapy
Therapeutic exercise
Strength and mobility progression
Movement analysis
Neuromuscular re-education
Pain education
Functional training
Return-to-activity planning

The goal is to help patients move beyond simply reducing symptoms and toward greater strength, confidence, and long-term function.

Interested in Pelvic Health? Build That Specialty Here

If pelvic health is an area you have wanted to explore, this role can also give you the opportunity to begin developing those skills.

You may have opportunities to work with patients experiencing:

Pelvic pain
Pregnancy and postpartum changes
Bowel and bladder dysfunction
Sexual health concerns
Core and abdominal dysfunction
Orthopedic conditions that overlap with pelvic health
Other pelvic and movement-related limitations

Pelvic health experience is welcomed, but it is not required.

For Physical Therapists interested in developing this specialty, pelvic health mentorship, clinical guidance, and additional learning opportunities may be available.

You can continue treating orthopedic patients while gradually expanding your clinical skill set based on your interests.

Continue Growing as a Clinician

Your development does not have to stop once you become comfortable managing an orthopedic caseload.

At Northwest Wellness Group, you will have opportunities for:

Ongoing professional development
Evidence-based clinical practice
Collaboration with other healthcare professionals
Exposure to different areas of Physical Therapy
Development of additional clinical interests
Opportunities for increased responsibility
Long-term career advancement

If pelvic health becomes an area you want to pursue more deeply, additional specialty development and mentorship can be incorporated into your growth.

What You Will Do

As a Physical Therapist, you will:

Evaluate and treat patients with orthopedic and movement-related conditions
Develop individualized plans of care based on patient goals and clinical findings
Provide evidence-based Physical Therapy treatment
Help patients improve strength, mobility, function, confidence, and quality of life
Utilize manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, movement analysis, and other appropriate interventions
Progress patients throughout each phase of rehabilitation
Provide patient education and coaching throughout the recovery process
Communicate clearly with patients about their condition, progress, and next steps
Collaborate with teammates to support strong patient outcomes
Complete documentation accurately and professionally
Create an exceptional patient experience built around trust and individualized care
Incorporate pelvic health treatment when appropriate based on your training and clinical interests

Who We Are Looking For

Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapy program
Active or eligible for an Illinois Physical Therapy license
Strong interest in outpatient orthopedic Physical Therapy
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
Commitment to evidence-based care
Interest in continued clinical development
Ability to develop and progress individualized treatment plans
Professional, collaborative, and patient-focused approach
Interest in pelvic health Physical Therapy is welcomed
Pelvic health coursework or training is a plus, but not required
Previous pelvic health experience is welcomed, but clinicians interested in developing this specialty are encouraged to apply
New graduate Physical Therapists may be considered

Why This Role Is Different

You do not have to choose between building strong orthopedic skills and developing additional areas of clinical interest.

At Northwest Wellness Group, you can continue strengthening your foundation as an orthopedic Physical Therapist while having the opportunity to explore pelvic health if that is a direction you want your career to take.

You will have clinical autonomy, a diverse orthopedic caseload, opportunities for professional development, and the ability to expand your skill set over time.

For clinicians interested in pelvic health, there is also the opportunity to receive additional guidance and develop that specialty without needing to enter the role as an experienced pelvic floor therapist.

This can be a strong fit for a Physical Therapist who wants variety, continued growth, and a career path that allows their clinical interests to evolve.

Why Apply Now

If you are looking for a Physical Therapy position where you can continue developing your orthopedic skills while having the option to explore pelvic health, Northwest Wellness Group offers the environment to do it.

You do not need to have your entire career path figured out before you apply.

You simply need to care about providing excellent Physical Therapy, enjoy working with a diverse patient population, and be interested in continuing to grow.

Apply today to join Northwest Wellness Group in Arlington Heights, Illinois and build a Physical Therapy career with room to grow.
