Editorial Summary

Why They Stand Out

"WATTAGE offers an industrial-chic environment with specialized pre/post-natal small group workouts and personal training. The facility features adaptable equipment supporting pregnancy and postpartum recovery. Coaching staff appear trained in perinatal exercise modifications, often consulting with in-house physiotherapists. Their programming balances strength, mobility, and core rehabilitation. Their integrated approach combining physiotherapist consultation with tailored fitness ensures supportive and effective training for expectant and new mothers."

Community Feedback

"I have never written a review in my life, but this time, one is well deserved. I ran my 10th marathon yesterday for Chicago and was experiencing tendon pain around my left Achilles weeks leading up to the race. Kelsie at Wattage gave me a set of exercises that I religiously completed each day, and in turn my Achilles in question was tremendously stronger. She not only checked in with me daily on how my progress was, but she dry needled the area in question on multiple accounts. Race day came and I had ZERO PAIN whatsoever in that left Achilles! I also had a Course PR (personal record) for Chicago! TRULY AMAZING WORK. There is absolutly no doubt that is was because of Kelsie at Wattage. I owe it to her expertise and truly am so thankful. I will continue my exercises and fully trust her with any injury I come across. THANK YOU KELSIE!!!!!"

"Kelsie is fantastic! I had a lingering issue for nearly a year and saw other physical therapists without much progress. I did a 10-session pack with Kelsie and felt a huge improvement within just a few visits. I really appreciated her focus on getting me fully better and not making me a frequent, long-term PT client. I was back to normal before finishing the 10 sessions. You’ll get ‘homework stretches’ to do between visits, and your personalized plan is provided through a webpage that’s incredibly easy to follow. If you don’t already have what you need for the stretches, Kelsie provides it, which really reinforces how much she cares and wants you to get better. Could not recommend her more."

"In early 2025 I came in after seeing half a dozen other physical therapists for a relentless back injury I got from being a competitive rower. I had this injury for ~1.5yrs at this point and it caused me to quit the rowing and start cycling where the injury remained inhibiting my ability to ride. After 6 months of working with Kelcie, I'm happy to say that my back pain has been completely alleviated. Over the last 3 months I haven't felt a single pain along with no signs of reoccurrence, she truly did what no other physical therapist was able to do for me. However, she helped me beyond just recovery, with functional strength & different mobility work I've seen the largest year over year fitness increase since I started training, and I credit a large part of that to Kelcie."
