I am extremely pleased to write-up a favorable review on the European Therapy center . My therapy treatment was brought on by a home work accident which wrenched my lower back & pelvic area. The pain had me laid -up in bed for 9 days which I could not even move my legs without having extreme pain radiating not only in my lower back, but in my stomach and groin area. Once I was able to move about a little, my wife suggested I try the European Therapy Center (ETC). In the past, I had gone to the local hospital therapy group a number of times, as I am 78 with a number of accidents and life events, but with my wife's own ETC wonder success I thought I would give it a try. My walking at that time was very restrictive, I could only walk a very short distant. My treatment at ETC was an eye opener of how different the therapists approach is, by working various parts of the body proved helpful with notable improvement. My pelvic and lower back pain level was at 8-9. Each session I had a different therapist who would change the exercise dependent on my present body pain location and would point out to me what body postural and body movements are not good and which ones that were good for the body. I then started to understand their approach was driven by a knowledge of a whole structural and inner workings of the muscle, skeletal and "core" workings of the body. Session by session I was getting better and better. My walking had improved, no more pelvic and lower back pain and now I am able to walk longer. In summary, ETC improved my quality of life. Even my prior leg injury some 8 years ago (Achilles leg rupture) whose residual leg impairment has now improved giving me the ability to walk and bend without leg cramping and stiffness . The staff is highly professional and each therapist provides insight on your body movements, as to which are natural movements and what body movements are bad to your body's core . I could not recommend The European Therapy Center more highly. Bill Briggs read more

I have been a patient at European Therapy Center for many years and Dr. Gregory Paprocki and his awesome team of therapists, hand selected and trained by Dr. Paprocki have helped me out time and again, identifying the source of the problem and providing in depth treatment, ultimately curing me of the issue and not merely treating the symptoms. In addition to being experts, they are always kind, patient, professional and accommodating . The expertise within the team is very diverse, which helps them to treat a problem from multiple view points resulting in total healing. My experience has been that, if I stick to the regimen and advise the therapists provide, the problem rarely re-occurs. The staff that runs both the offices in Palatine and Northfield and extremely professional, friendly and accommodating. Without fail, they will call and leave reminders about the appointments the day before, always greet you with a smile and go out of their way to help you find an appointment when you need one in a pinch. Their follow up, when you are on a wait list is also impeccable. The back office staff always works with you and the insurance company to find the most optimal financial solution for you. The ambiance in both their offices in Palatine and Northfield is very classy and pleasing, always decorated appropriately for the season and with fresh flowers and latest, relevant reading materials. IN addition to all of this, they are always punctual, I have never waited for more than 3 minutes to be called into my therapy room. European Therapy Center, its staff and therapists is a great model for all medical establishments to follow. read more

I visited the European Therapy Center in Palatine, IL based on the recommendation of my neurologist during the summer of 2010 for treatment of an arthritic condition in my cervical vertebrae which was causing headaches that varied in intensity from mild, to occasionally moderate. I was highly impressed by the thoroughness of the initial examination by Dr. Papropki. He was able to specifically locate the area in my cervical vertebrae that was causing my problems. He prescribed a treatment regimen for my therapy that included intervention by both the physical therapists and exercises which I could do on a daily basis. I was treated by several different therapists, all of whom were well-trained, competent, caring, polite, patient, and genuinely concerned with my progress. I don't recall all of their names, but I was very impressed by the treatment I received from both Orla, and Yolanda. After about 6 weeks of treatment (twice weekly) my condition was showing noticeable improvement. I continued treatment on an occasional basis for another 6 weeks, and at the end of the treatment period the frequency and intensity of my headaches had significantly diminished. At the recommendation of the staff, I purchased an orthopedic pillow which has helped keep me virtually headache free. The front desk staff was very helpful with appointment scheduling and reminders about available coverage through my health insurance. Based on my experience, I highly recommend the European Therapy Center. read more

This place and all therapists that work there are amazing. I found out about this facility from a co-worker who also had been helped by the healing hands of Greg the owner and his PTs. At the time I was 3 months post op of my hip debridement and removal of bone spurs and after doing therapy at IBJI was about to be released with barely functional leg as nothing else could be done in their opinion. To get there for a first visit I had to use a cane. I set down with Greg and Yola(pta), my eyes close to tearing up as I was hopeless and worried about what my future physical capabilities will be like. Well today I am 7 months post op and had been working already since 2 months, spending hours on my feet, walking, doing intense workout, traveling and doing whatever life has to offer. There is still some limited ROM in the hip( due to major cartilage loss bc of Ankylosing Spondalitis) but I am motivated and very optimistic that full recovery is right around the corner. These people at ETC have helped me a lot, and this whole experience made me a different person with strong interest in healthy living. Honestly I recommend this place if you want to be treated like a human being, not cattle. read more

Have been a patient at European Therapy center for over 4 years and am thrilled with the service and the treatment. I have been a patient of Dr. Greg Paprocki for close to 10 years.

Their offices are conveniently located in Palatine and Northfield and are very well outfitted. I highly recommend European Therapy Center to anyone in need of Physical therapy or has been long suffering with aches and pains or pinched nerves etc. I continue to use them for neck and shoulder issues with very positive results. /Biju Nair read more

I highly recommend European Therapy Center if you are looking for a comprehensive and thorough approach to physical therapy. I've been to other "name brand" physical therapy locations, and it's all about seeing as many patients at one time and billing as much as they can. My experience at European Therapy Center was just the opposite. The therapists are competent, and they CARE. They are 100% hands on as opposed to watching you do exercises or charging you for ice. I was also incredibly impressed with the rest of the staff. They demonstrate a very high level of service and professionalism. Last, it's a business that demonstrates gratitude. I gladly referred a colleague that needed therapy, and I received a hand written thank you note as well as a Starbucks gift card in the mail. I will never choose another place for therapy if I need it in the future... they've earned my loyalty, and I recommend them to others without reservation. read more

I've had a couple different physical therapists throughout my life, but none of them were even close to how AMAZING the therapists at European Therapy Center! Aneta was my main therapist. Although she is relatively new, she's incredibly knowledgeable of how the body should work and every day, I left our session feeling SO much better! She's only going to get even better as time goes, taking classes while gaining experience and seeing success in her patients. I officially "graduated" from my case, thanks from her help! I have severe arthritis in my right ankle, so she recommended I also meet with Orla, who is a foot genius. The front desk girls were always super friendly and helpful for any scheduling conflicts, too! They doesn't treat you like just a patient. They become invested in you and your well-being, which is super refreshing. I absolutely 100% recommend European Therapy Center!! read more

I have been a patient of European Therapy Center for multiple years. Two years ago the Center was being run and managed by the therapist's wife, Joan, which is very disappointing. I am a doctor myself and understand the essence of customer service. For the past year I have been having the most unpleasant experience, in terms of staff, hygiene and mismanagement of the Center. The staff is unprofessional, hygiene is poor, no linens on tables and pillows are not changes after each patient, and the the owner is obnoxious. She cancelled my standing appointment that I had for years without my knowledge or any discussion. When I called to confirm my appointments for the following year I was told I had none. She was rude, used fowl language and basically told me to find another facility. As a medical professional I can not recommend this facility. read more

European Therapy Center is in a class all its own. Dr. Greg Paprocki is a man of passion and dedication. His passion is spread through all the talented staff he has. I've been a client over several years between various injuries and recovery from cancer and a stroke. The problem with the franchise therapy centers is that the care is standardized, one size fits all, there is a high volume turnover resulting in less personal attention. At European Therapy Center, you have the therapist's attention for the entire session. Additionally, all his therapists are either in the process of obtaining or already have attained the CFMT certification-Certified Functional Mobility Therapist license. There are not many CFMT's in the US and the difference is skill level is evident from the consultation on. I won't go anywhere else. Ann L read more

I received treatment on my thoracic spine at European Therapy Center from late 2011 to mid 2012. The care I received was exceptional. From the initial appointment where they analyzed my gate, posture and description of my pain, to the final appointment, I never doubted that I was receiving the best care from some of the most knowledgable physical therapists. I should mention that before going to European Therapy Center I saw a physical therapist at a different clinic who recommended I see Dr. Paprocki. I can see now why Dr. Paprocki and his staff come highly recommended within the physical therapy community. I have recommended two family members to European Therapy Center so far and will recommend them again and again. read more

My competitive figure skating students, my son and I have been using their services for the past 5 years. Everyone in the group is very knowledgeable and professional. There were a variety of problems well diagnosed and most importantly always cured. The head of the center Gregory Paprocki tracks all of his patients and he is personally involved in their treatment process. He is communicating well with the patients and his therapists, so even if the appointments are not always scheduled with him, they are very productive. I would highly recommend European Therapy Center to anyone-athletes, children, adults. Another location has opened in Northfield, Willow/Edens where Gregory is available as well. Maria read more

European Therapy Center does Physical Therapy the right way. You'll always be treated with respect, dignity and their full attention. They will exceed your expectations and make you functional again. I had a kidney transplant in March of 2015 and noticed I had difficulty moving in certain directions. Simple things were difficult for me like tying my left shoe, putting on socks, twisting, standing/sitting longer than 20 minutes, etc. I expressed my concerns to Dr. Paprocki and we came up with a personalized plan to break up all the scar tissue that was limiting my movement. I couldn't believe how fast they were able to get results! I now have full movement and feel so much better! read more

Have received treatment here for two different problems. Their approach has been able to provide me long term relief and healing beyond any other PT Center in the past. Greg and his team have a hands on approach to assessing your condition and work together to provide cutting edge care to resolve your problem. They providing me with solutions for work to minimize daily impact and exercises I can do on my own to help prevent future attacks as well. This place Cares about you and your health! I have referred many friends and was also a referral from a neighbor to European Therapy. Highly Recommend European Therapy Center. read more

European Therapy Center is an amazing physical therapy clinic, the people who work there are very professional and take good care of you. I am a mother of a 7 year old child who was born with clubfoot.

Jola and Cortney were great and have a good attitude towards working with children. Overall all staff are fantastic. Would definitely recommend. read more
