About Dr. Mary (Kate) Casey

Mary Kate graduated with her Doctor of Physical Therapy from Northwestern University and currently specializes in sports medicine rehabilitation. She is a former collegiate lacrosse player with four National Championships as a member of the Northwestern Women's Lacrosse team, the current Head Lacrosse Coach at DePaul Prep in Chicago, and a member of the Wellness Team for the Women's Professional Lacrosse League (WPLL). In 2019, Northwestern University Physical Therapy Department selected Mary Kate as the Young Alumni of the Year for her innovative contributions to the Physical Therapy profession. Mary Kate sustained an ACL injury early in her freshman year of college, which sparked her interest in physical therapy. During a 6-9 month recovery process, she followed a strict program that not only focused on strength, speed, agility, and quickness but also included flexibility, balance, mechanical, and proprioceptive training during sport-specific activities. This unique training regimen helped her achieve athletic success throughout her collegiate career and into young adulthood. Her holistic approach to injury prevention, sports performance, and mental preparation was born out of this experience. Her experience as both a former collegiate athlete and an experienced physical therapist convinces her that something is missing for athletes who train extended hours to excel in their sport yet continuously need to fend off injuries. Along with her extensive understanding of the increasing prevalence of ACL tears, she developed her own ARSI Movement System, which she utilizes during her therapy and sports performance programming. Her methodology, pre- and post-injury, focuses on the assessment of muscle imbalances, recruitment of specific muscles, stabilization of muscle groups, and integration of proper mechanical loading during sport-specific activities.
