Mykenzie James

Mykenzie has been treating patients since receiving her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Florida Southern College in 2025. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Biology with a Pre- Physical Therapy focus and a minor in Psychology from Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois, in 2023.

As a recent float physical therapist who has transitioned full time to the Palatine clinic, she has had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of patients and conditions, including low back pain, knee, shoulder injuries, pelvic floor-related concerns, ankle sprains, and more. She believes that listening to patients and maintaining open communication are key to developing an effective treatment plan and creating a positive therapy experience.

Mykenzie has a background in competitive swimming, having swam throughout high school and college, which has given her a strong understanding and appreciation for the sport and athletes as a whole.

Outside of the clinic, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends and hanging out with her two cats!
