Dr. Matthew Petry
Chiropractic Physician
Dr. Matt has acquired a unique and well-rounded approach to fitness, wellness, and a healthy lifestyle. Through over 20 years of experience in multidisciplinary environments, he has seen the benefits of co-managing patients with medical physicians as well as physical therapists. Dr. Matt has learned to adapt his chiropractic knowledge and advanced physical rehabilitative techniques into a team approach based on multi-pronged solutions for his patients. Creating Post Rehab Solutions has brought together his backgrounds in chiropractic and physical rehab with his passion for sports medicine.
When he is not treating patients, you can find Dr. Matt either mowing his lawn, playing with his daughter, at the side of a lake fishing or watching one of his favorite Star Wars or Marvel movies.
– National Multiple Sclerosis Society Illinois Task Force Nominee in 2013 and Accredited Continuing Education Provider for the following American fitness training providers: NSCA, NASM, AFAA, ACE, ISSA.
Karrie Champene
Licensed Massage Therapist and Office Manager
Karrie Champene is a licensed massage therapist who understands the healing effects that massage can have on the body, mind, and spirit, as well as its importance in rehabilitation, recovery and relaxation. After graduating from Wellness and Massage Training Institute in 2003, Karrie refined her techniques at an AVEDA Lifestyle Day Spa. Since then, she has become an accomplished therapist in such techniques as: deep tissue, myofascial release, neuromuscular release, prenatal massage, sports massage, trigger point therapy, Gua Sha, cupping and Swedish massage.
It was in 2006 when she began to expand her techniques, training and practical experiences while working at a fitness resort, that she befriended Dr. Matt. Five years later, Karrie joined him in his mission in providing patients the tools to build their bridge to a pain-free life. He has been stuck with her ever since.
In 2016, she furthered her education by attaining her Bachelor of Science in Business with specialization in Health Services Management from DeVry University.
When Karrie is not at work treating patients and causing playful office shenanigans, she is at home reading, watching documentaries and spending time with her husband.
