East Peoria residents — Dr. Rob Kelch is about 20 minutes away. Cross the river on I-74 and you’re at Absolute Wellness in North Peoria for back pain, neck pain, and work-injury care, with same-day openings most weekdays and a $49 new patient exam.
Getting here from East Peoria is simple: I-74 West across the Murray Baker Bridge, the War Memorial Drive exit, then a few minutes west to Allen Road and north to Altorfer Drive. It’s about 11 miles and roughly 20 minutes from downtown East Peoria, with free parking right outside our door.
East Peoria is a working town — manufacturing, Caterpillar’s operations along the river, and plenty of shift work. Lifting, repetitive motion, and long hours on concrete floors are hard on backs, necks, and shoulders. We accept workers’ compensation and handle the paperwork, and Dr. Kelch’s extremity certification (CCEP) covers the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and knee injuries that often come with that kind of work.
Taking classes at Illinois Central College or spending your day at a desk? Neck pain and low back pain from long hours of sitting are just as common. Early-morning appointments and Saturday hours (8–9:30 AM) make it easier to fit a visit in before work or class.
Lower back pain, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and chronic back conditions — including work-related lifting and repetitive strain injuries common in East Peoria's workforce.
