I truly can't thank Stephanie, Heather, and Claire enough for the incredible care they gave me after my spinal fusion surgery. Recovery felt overwhelming at times, but they were patient, encouraging, and genuinely compassionate every step of the way. I never felt like just another patient -- they truly listened and made me feel supported and understood. They carefully guided my progress, celebrated small wins with me, and helped me safely rebuild my strength and confidence. Their expertise and kindness made such a difference during a very vulnerable time in my life. I am deeply grateful for them and would wholeheartedly recommend Refresh Pilates and Wellness Center to anyone needing physical therapy -- especially after spinal fusion surgery. read more

just finished a class with Rena. it was one of the best Pilates classes I've taken! She's an amazing teacher and I love the remodeled space. Can't wait to go back! read more

Best physical therapy ever . I'm a nurse and they are truly miracle workers. Very constructive and terrific at what they do

Beautiful and clean environment. I went there with chronic neck pain and they did an amazing job healing me. I worked primarily with Stephanie but a few other therapists as well and would highly recommend all of them! read more

I am rehabbing after foot surgery and really enjoying the pilates classes. Stephanie is a wonderful, fun, caring instructor who makes working out very enjoyable. The physical therapy office is equipped with some of the latest high tech equipment including lazer therapy and the Alter G non-weight bearing treadmill and there are chiropractors on hand for advice and treatment. If you are considering rehabbing from weight gain, injury, illness or surgery contact Refresh Pilates Studio. read more

So glad I found and tried Refresh Pilates! Like several others, I first went to Dr. Burkhart (chiropractor) next door -- whom I love and has done wonders for me -- when I saw and was curious about Refresh. I liked the idea that Dr. Stephanie Owens-Burkhart ris not only trained and educated in chiropractic and physical therapy, but is a fantastic Pilates instructor to boot! This morning was my first class with her, and since trying my "first class free" three days ago, was my third class overall. The second was with Taylor, who is awesome. Each class (so far) has been different, and I like them all for different reasons. By the third class, I'm already hooked. I can definitely see that I would miss it on off days. I purchased the one-month unlimited package and plan to go to four classes/week. Can't wait to go back! read more

I initially took a Pilates class with Stephanie Burkhart, who is also a physical therapist. A few months later, I injured my foot, and knew exactly where to go! Stephanie and her team (Rena & Ashley) were outstanding. They were very knowledgeable and skilled -- and this is coming from another orthopedic health care professional! I enjoyed the one on one attention, and felt like I was in a relaxing spa during my treatments. Refresh just doesn't help you heal your aching joints, it helps heal your mind and body together. Some other physical therapy clinics (Athletico) operate like an assembly line of body parts- and it's not very personable. I would recommend those seeking a physical therapy consultation to try this place out. The only downside is you may never want to leave. Thanks Stephanie B. (PT), Ashley (PTA), and Rena (PTA)! read more

I LOVE Refresh Pilates in Homer Glen!!! I have been attending their Pilates classes for about 4 months now and I am hooked!! There are a variety of classes each with a different emphasis all using the Pilates reformer. All classes are small with individual attention by the instructor. I particularly enjoy the Back Care class taught by Stephanie Owens-Burkhart, the owner as well as a Doctor in Physical Therapy. She really knows her stuff! What a fun and motivating instructor!! My back has improved greatly and so has my energy level and strength!! Refresh recently expanded the yoga classes offered with Toni. Hatha, Yin and Vinyasa yoga choices to choose from. I would highly recommend Refresh to all yoga and Pilates devotees!!! read more

I have been bothered by bouts of Vertigo for years. The bouts come on quickly can be debilitating and last for days. While at PT my husband casually mentioned that I was experiencing a bout of Vertigo. His therapist recommended I come in and see Dr. Anne Best that she could help me with my Vertigo. I was skeptical but I thought I would give it a try. We both have seen therapists there in the past and always been thrilled with the results. Dr. Anne was able to fit me in that afternoon. She did some specialized head and neck movements which only took about 20 minutes but were extremely effective and also gave me instructions for at home care. That night I definitely felt much better and by morning my Vertigo bout was totally gone. I am thrilled to know that there is a treatment for Vertigo and that there is a therapist close to home that is extremely caring and wonderfully trained at treating patients with Vertigo. Thank you Dr. Anne Best Joyce E. Orland Park Illinois read more

I LOVE this place! It is a magical oasis that helps me escape from the daily stresses of every day life. Their team is very warm, professional & energetic. You feel like a million bucks every time you leave Refresh Pilates & Wellness Studio. read more

Such a wonderful studio. Amazing, insanely-smart teachers/physical therapists with such up-lifting personalities. The classes are so much fun and so beneficial to all aspects of your well-being. The ambiance of the place is wonderful, and the aromatherapy is such a treat. I'm so grateful to have been introduced to Refresh Pilates and Wellness Studio, it's really helped heal my *injured* knee and the restorative and spine care classes really help release built-up tension and make me a lot less stressed and worrisome. I highly, highly recommend that you drop in for a few classes - it'll be a decision you won't soon regret! read more

I would highly recommend Refresh Pilates and Wellness and Studio to all ages and ranges of health and wellness. Awesome to have such a great group of caring PT staff, Helen, Stephanie and Dr. G. who are all very caring and care for each patient like they are their own family members. I have been a patient for many years before the Studio was open and have always had the best of care possible from Bruce (chiropractor) and Helen ( PT) prior to the expansion who have been there right when you need them to take care of their patients as their own family. The office staff have always been very accommodating esp. Pat, Vicki, Nancy (all of the staff who have been there forever) and the newer staff Sharon and the others (sorry about the names) are following the same as treating everybody as family. Always been the best place for Chiropractic and PT and I am sure will expand and exceed their patients expectations. Make your appointment soon for a great experience and to improve your overall well being. Grace Obradovic read more

Went for physical therapy and couldn't have had a better experience. Impeccably clean place, professional and very skilled therapists and overall a positive environment. Going there in pain, fixed my knee, and leaving feeling great. They are the best therapists ever, Stephanie is great, and honestly they renewed my interest in getting healthy again, pain free. Looking forward to actually joining a class. read more

The BEST Physical Therapy ever! Dr. Stephanie Owens-Burkhart is so intuitive in her practice, shes the best! I get educated with every visit, about whats going on with my body!

Refresh and the staff are both amazing. It is my second home ;) After a couple surgeries they have done a great job at getting me back on track. Love Refresh and would recommend them to anyone! read more

I've been doing Pilates for the last 5 years and just started at Refresh 3 months ago. This is by far my favorite studio. The instructors are energetic, personable, and professional. Each class is unique and challenging. I am not the most athletic or flexible person, but feel very comfortable during classes. read more

I would not recommend this studio for yoga. It was in a cold basement , with noise above and not a peaceful environment.

As a nurse, and as someone who deals with patient care on a daily basis, I have nothing but good things to say about Orthopedic Physical Therapy Services and Refresh Pilates and Wellness Studio. I had injured my back at work and was in need of physical therapy. Previous experience with places like ATI had me looking for something different, an atmosphere that I would enjoy being in, and a place that I would actually look forward to going to every other day. I got all of those things here and more! This is a family owned business, and I felt like a friend every time I walked in the door. Helen, Stephanie, and Rena are absolutely the best!! They focus on each patient one-on-one, which I have never seen anywhere else. Every day after I completed my exercises, I would get a massage, with electric stimulation, and sometimes cupping therapy (which was my favorite!) I would come home and feel like I just got treated at the spa! Within a week of treatment I felt significant improvement in my back, and within a month I was back to work on full duty. I will be recommending these girls to everyone I know who is looking for PT, and also just to friends looking to get a massage or take a pilates or yoga class. A+++++ read more

REFRESH PILATES STUDIO is amazing! I've been getting my physical therapy post rotator cuff surgery with Helen Owens and Stephanie Owens-Burkhart next door from the Pilates studio. (If you ever need PT, they are THE ones to go to! Seriously.) For the past 6 weeks, I've been taking pilates classes at Refresh. I am hooked! The studio is new and so clean. I've taken classes with most of the instructors. They each have their own style and they are all excellent as well as highly trained and always looking out for everyone's safety. The reformer machines are new and so much fun while definitely getting a great total body workout/stretching. I love that the class sizes are small...maximum 10 people for each one hour class. Love the personal little touches the owners include and the aromatherapy is soooo nice! I was a newbie to Pilates. The instructors know everyone by name and go out of their way to help you when you're new. Hoping that this studio remains excellent for MANY years to come! You can sign up for your classes online and I feel the price per month is reasonable if you use it! read more

This summer will be four years that I joined Refresh Pilates! I can't express how amazing this studio is. Stephanie and all the other instructors are great! It was hard to find a studio that offered early classes. They offer early, afternoon, evening and weekends classes. They change the classes around so we get a nice variety. Hands down this is the best pilates & yoga studio! read more

Eight months ago today I had what was supposed to be an easy peasy hip replacement. After complications and months of extensive pain and fluid extractions I was finally able to resume physical therapy. I have a new respect for pain and the ability it has to change your life as you knew it...To be blunt I was an emotional mess; I actually was fearful I might never walk unassisted again.. The highly trained, knowledgeable, compassionate staff at Refresh Pilates gave me my life back Owner, Stephanie is so full of energy, upbeat and positive I couldn't let her see me depressed or defeated..she provided individual therapy, pilates and torture room exercises that strengthened my core, my muscles and my posture, strength and form. As my therapy increased 3x a week anywhere from 1-2 hours I was introduced to Rena and Ashley who added their personal style to my workouts.encouraged my progress and increased my abilities and confidence. It was as if in the hours of therapy I was transported to a different place concentrating only on my wellness. and that is what Refresh provides a sanctuary for you to get well. I won't say I didn't have set backs but these women got me over the hump and knew when I needed more massage and heat or cold than stretch; They were my light at the end of the tunnel, a source of encouragement and everyone shares in your growth and wellness. Since my therapy has been almost 6 months I have had the honor to also work with Helen, Pat, Carrie and Sue who all have their own special style and persona to bring to your journey to health..And I can't not mention sweet Taylo and Toni...both teach classes which I have been honored to attend. .So we have done so well; I have been mainstreamed to general Pilates/Yoga and Spine classes - you will not be disappointed regardless who is the instructor and the women that attend are all wonderful also...It is truly a hidden sanctuary in Homer Glen...invested in your wellness. read more

I've been attending physical therapy for about 4 months and the care and work they do with you to insure your needs and wants is incredible. They always take the extra step to make sure they are taking as good of care of you without compromising your health and well-being. The therapists, chiropractors, office staff and instructors are the most friendly and helpful as you can ask. I've actually have started bringing my family there for all their needs like back and sports injuries. Never walked out feeling regrets just better knowing my recovery is in their hands. read more

Refresh Pilates is the best reformer pilates in Chicago. This is a great workout without hurting yourself. All the teachers are highly educated and trained and understand anatomy and how to accommodate any level of pilates experience. The classes are challenging and fun. Classes are limited to ten people, so everyone gets personal attention. Regardless of your fitness level, you will comfortable in one of their classes. Their equipment is new and well maintained, the studio has a very zen quality and you feel relaxed and refreshed when you leave. The prices are unbeatable for the quality of the instruction. Try it! read more

My family has been seeing the chiropractor next door since the 1980s and once Refresh Pilates and Wellness opened up next door, I knew I had to be apart of it. It is a family owned business and they are so personable and really care about helping their patients. They are so friendly and helpful and always fitting me in for PT whenever I can make it. After doing PT there after a few different surgeries, I decided to give the pilates a try! I couldn't be more pleased! My grandma was the one that encouraged me to try the pilates. I was always very intimidated by the machines, but once I was on one, the instructors were so helpful and made it so fun to be apart of! The yoga classes are great too, and they have helped me with my overall flexibility. I just recently scheduled a massage with their massage therapist and am really looking forward to that! I would highly recommend this studio for all your wellness needs! The staff is wonderful! read more

I had been looking for a studio for yoga classes when I came across Refresh Wellness Center. It is just what I wanted and more! The ambiance is so beautiful, peaceful and clean! The instructors (3) each bring their own unique style and personality to the core purpose to deliver an environment of well being. I have not yet done yoga, instead I am enrolled in Reformer Pilates classes. It's fun, "refreshing," uplifting and beneficial. All age groups are involved and each class brings something new mixed with routine stretching. I love it! I am also doing PT on my foot at the office. This combined with the pilates classes is providing healing and a true sense of well being. Stephanie is fun, extremely smart and shares the benefits of what we are achieving through her instructions. Liz provides great instruction to ensure you are not rushing or hurting yourself with the various moves. Heather is friendly and knowledgable. A GREAT place! read more
