Manhattan Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: A work colleague recommended Erica and Manhattan Physical Therapy and I am so grateful she did. I can't recommend MPT highly enough. I had a broken knee, surgery and could barely bend it let alone walk when I started sessions, now I can even manage some stairs after about 6 weeks. Erica is a pleasure - very professional and knowledgeable. She explained everything simply and pushed me when I needed it. I actually look forward to my sessions! Lidia,the office manager is also a delight handling my bookings and insurance. An absolutely superb practice.

Fantastic experience: Pretty great! Walking and going down stairs has gotten a lot easier since coming here after my injury. Everyone is super nice and Erica is awesome!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Manhattan Physical Therapy for six weeks now, and it is truly the best. For the first time in my medical history, I know my emotions and pain levels are being considered. I feel heard and have instantly felt cared for from the moment I hobbled in the door. From the personalization of the treatments (manual manipulation, cupping, acupuncture, redcord, and more) to the explanations of the whys, recommendations of TV shows and doctor referrals, to the laughter and joy that each person in the office brings— I have never felt more at home and confident in the care I’m receiving. If you are looking for a new Physical therapist in NYC, consider MPT. I’m thankful I did!

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Manhattan Physical Therapy by my podiatrist after a fracture in my fibula during a run. My first visit at the office was a review of posture, areas of weakness, building out a training plan, and to get an understanding what my end goal is. Erica has been my primary physical therapist at the office and has been absolutely amazing. Erica puts together specific training plans that will focus on strengthening surrounding areas while carefully rehabbing the injured area. The entire staff has been phenomenal and very nice to deal with on a weekly basis. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone that has recently gone through an injury. I feel they will take the absolute best care of you during your time there. Thank you MPT for helping me get back to my runners form and for being a critical part in helping me achieve my goal!

Fantastic experience: Erica helped our roller derby team prep for our bout by taping several skaters and assisting players with her knowledge and encouragement. She was personable and professional, and we hope she'll become a regular part of the support team!

Fantastic experience: My experience at Manhattan Physical Therapy & Pain Center has been exceptional, especially in treating my hip impingement. My work has been mostly with Erica, but the entire staff demonstrates a deep level of expertise in their field, combined with a genuinely personable and engaging manner that makes each visit enjoyable. A specific highlight is their use of the Red Cord machine, which is a rarity in the city (they may be the only one, or one of just a few). This innovative equipment uses body weight exercises instead of traditional weights and has proven to be extraordinarily effective in my treatment. Overall, my healing process has been accelerated due to their unique and effective methods, coupled with their expertise and excellent patient care.

Fantastic experience: I have been going there for a few months. The facility is second to none and treatments are personalized to each client’s unique needs. I really like how they use a combination of approaches from manual manipulation to red cord equipment to acupuncture to achieve results that are fast and lasting. Lastly, I want to give a big shoutout to Erica. She’s not only very experienced and great at PT but a fantastic and warm person to be around. She really cares about every client at a personal level.

Fantastic experience: The single best physical therapist I’ve ever been to, Erica is a genius of her craft and for the first time since being injured I was able to see results. Would 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Erika and entire staff are great. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Helped me overcome running related injuries

Fantastic experience: I came in with a torn hip labrum and some long term challenges from a past meniscus tear on the same side. Could not recommend this place more. Super knowledgeable, very nice to work with, genuinely very good people. Would give 6 stars if I could.

Fantastic experience: This has been very helpful for me. I'm working ‍♂️ and doing therapy Erika and Lidia takes care of me. I'm really getting serious treatment. It's hard but it's what i need. I appreciate them. And yes i give them 5 stars I'm thankful

Fantastic experience: I originally came to help with my Bell’s palsy. The whole community is extremely welcoming and kind. They come up with fun exercises that help me be motivated to do them at home as well as doing it during my apt.

Fantastic experience: I went here after injuring my shoulder in a HIIT class and my doctor prescribed physical therapy. My colleagues recommended this place from prior experience. After my treatment, my shoulder pain is gone and I feel very confident in my workout moves again. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: This PT location is fantastic. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They have been a huge part of my recovery from a broken leg. From PT with Erika and acupuncture with John my recover has been made much easier.

Fantastic experience: I came to Manhattan physics therapy with a wrist problem, and they were able to really reduce my pain with acupuncture, exercises and decreasing the muscle tension in my forearms. Erica, John and Maia have been really helpful and Lidia and Maya are great to schedule with!

Fantastic experience: My experience at this center was great. The office is clean and the staff personable. I came in for an evaluation of my foot pain. Erika the PT was patient with my squeamishness and talked me through the X-ray to the heart of my discomfort. The Acupuncturist was a pleasant conversationalist, and explained the processes happening inside of my leg... (so don't be afraid to ask plenty of questions)... I walked away from my appointment with a bandaged foot, better understanding of my body, and a daily regimen of what to do to help myself along the healing process. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. All the therapist: Erica, Jo, John, they are all having solid knowledge about good approaches to ease and heal my injury. Very effective, in just 2-3 weeks, I felt significantly better.

Fantastic experience: I love manhattan physical therapy! I have worked with several other physical therapists in Manhattan but haven’t been able to make any progress in alleviating my back pain until I came here. They use an incredibly effective mix of modalities and everything is not only specific to The individual, but also specific to the day of the your visit and how the last session affected you. They take everything into account! I’ve worked with Erica who is a physical therapy genius and she makes it her personal mission to make sure you progress and get the most out of every session. Also, if you’re the type of person that has a lot of questions about what’s going on with your body, she’s basically an encyclopedia. Everyone that works here is so good at what they do, kind and caring. You really know they are there to help! I truly recommend Manhattan Physical therapy and if you’ve tried other things and feel like nothing helps, this is the place for you!

Fantastic experience: Superb experience at MPT! Erica was a true magician with my neck & shoulder. She saved me from a brutal 4-hour drive to Boston for Thanksgiving. Her extensive knowledge, excellent professionalism, and friendliness are unmatched. While I don't look forward to future injuries, I know I'll be in good hands when they do (inevitably) occur!

Fantastic experience: After going to 3 other physical therapists, I finally found one that actually spends the entire session helping the patient, not just giving them exercises to do on their own. Everyone is super friendly and makes me look forward to PT!

Fantastic experience: Every single person who works at Manhattan Physical Therapy & Pain Center is wonderful! They take great pride in their work and are extremely knowledgeable, always thinking outside the box with the sole goal of wanting their clients to feel better and recover. I look forward to my appointments knowing I am in the best hands!

Fantastic experience: Such an incredible experience! Sessions were very personalized and I received individualized attention. MPT uses high tech tools and also offers more than just PT, including acupuncture, cupping, compression pants, etc.

Fantastic experience: My foot doctor recommended 10 physical therapy sessions, out of the list of centers available I chose the Manhattan Physical Therapy and Pain Center. This was the first time I have ever had physical therapy and I was a little bit apprehensive. The staff at MPT&P were very caring and listened to my explanation of my physical concerns. My therapist was respectful and very professional. I have had six sessions so far and each time I have enjoyed my time with the center. The staff are amazing and I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking help with physical concerns.

Fantastic experience: I reached out to Manhattan Physical Therapy to come in for a consult regarding hip pain I’ve been experiencing for quite a few years now. Right away Erica was able to diagnosis my issue and put together an extensive plan beginning my road to rehabilitation. 3 weeks in and I’m basically pain free. Erica’s knowledge is unmatched and experience shows. Coupled with acupuncture from John, I am feeling great for the first time in years. I would highly recommend Manhattan physical therapy to all.

Fantastic experience: Incredible facility. Wonderful therapists. First class treatment from top to bottom. Erica and John helped my hip tremendously. The acupuncture treatment is unlike anything I’ve gotten before. I highly recommend this physical therapy facility.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Manhattan physical therapy! Because of my job, I got to experience many P.T and this were the best! Highly recommended to anyone! Special thanks to Erica for making me have a great recovery !!

Fantastic experience: I started going to Manhattan Physical Therapy a few months ago and have had the best experience. Everyone that works there is super friendly and knowledgeable. My first session, they used a 3D motion scanner to identify specific areas that need work on my body which I have never had done before. They have been super thorough, identified my issue right away and came up with a plan to get me back to my pain free self in weeks. I highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending physical therapy here for about 3 weeks and have already seen progress! Erica is super knowledgeable about herniated discs and has implemented a game plan that is thought out and realistic. My back pain has diminished and I am hopeful that it will continue to diminish the more I work with Erica.

Fantastic experience: Manhattan Therapy is such a wonderful place. I went to other PT places in Queens, but they don’t have the special treatment and dedication that they offer. Erica is incredible, funny and super knowledgeable about knee pain issues. All the Therapists and staff are super kind and Friendly. Overall, I have enjoyed myself all the sessions that I have been attending, and my knee pain has reduced considerably. I highly recommend this place!!! ❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: I came in for a back injury and could not happier with the services provided. Erica not only worked on the immediate issue, but provided sustainable treatment and solutions for long term, manageable rehabilitation. After 10 years of on again, off again back issues - the red cord therapy is the most relief I’ve ever had. The front office team is equally as efficient and productive - visit this place if you want to get better!

Fantastic experience: I wasn’t able to sit at my desk for more than two hours at a time when I first attended. I’ve undergone strengthening exercises, acupuncture and cupping. I’m now pain free and back to my usual workout schedule! Manhattan Physical Therapy & Pain is the best. Fun people, I’ve also learned a lot about baking from Erica.. so a double win, really.

Fantastic experience: Found them through the positive reviews on Google. I must say, I LOVE this place and everyone who works there. I came to them because of an injured knee (a worker's comp case). I was almost skeptical I could be healed since so much time has passed since the original injury but... They know exactly what exercises I need to get back on track. I'm feeling like my old self for the first time in 6 months! I can't recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Erica and she has had an amazing energy taking me through a long rehab process for my knees and neck. Carpal tunnel next. The team in this office is so important throughout my recovery process that they’ve become an integral part of my lifestyle. They’re great listeners even when it’s not about just pt. I have full trust in their process!

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing, came in with some incredible lower back pain and couldn’t even walk. After a few weeks of sessions with Erika and Kevin I felt like a new man, no joke can’t believe I could walk straight up now but you should have seen me a few weeks ago I looked like an old man with a cane walking down the street. Amazing staff, that is every attentive and friendly, and practices that would blow your mind!!!! Especially John abs his vase knowledge of the body and it’s pressure points. Would and will recommend this place to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Very professional and caring team! They have all necessary equipment and offer a variety of exercises, acupuncture, regular ultrasound of your injury and laser scan of your posture to draft a treatment plan. Through exercises and acupuncture my pain and limping is gone. Convenient location on 36st&5av. I highly recommend Manhattan Physical Therapy!

Fantastic experience: Story time! I've had a rough go of it with my back issues for over 10 years, and when I fell down a flight of stairs last new year's eve, I really wasn't looking forward to the New Year. I suffered two fractures, and needed time to heal. (Fast forward) One doctor said I'd need surgery for my spinal issues, so I got a second opinion. The second doctor suggested physical therapy before suggesting injections or something more severe. I happened to pick MPT off a list of places I could have gone, and I'm really happy that this place worked out with my insurance policy. First of all, Maya is knowledgable and lively to talk to about my options and my next steps. She's also flexible when I need alterations that may seem annoying to other service providers. And then Erica and Kevin make it easy to show up and be entertained with conversation to divert attention to the incredibly painful and beneficial process of the Red Cord, massage and exercise processes they go through. And John is very targeted with the acupuncture - like, I really don't know how he finds Exactly the spots that hurt, and he never misses. His conversations are really fun, too. It's easy to feel like "just a number" with services in Manhattan, but they do a great job of remembering your names. It's only been a few weeks and I'm relieved that surgery may not have to happen now! Feeling lucky this all worked out! (Is that enough gushing?? I think that's enough gushing, yeah.)

Fantastic experience: With full sincerity, I have been so fortunate to work with MPT. I was sent there by my doctor to work on both knees, one with a resent problem, the other, lifelong - and the entire staff has been such a pleasure to work with as I recover and strengthen not only the problem areas, but also the areas that support the problem areas. At no point in my weeks as a patient did I ever feel anything less than cared for and encouraged. Everyone knows your name, everyone cares about your well-being and is excited for your progress. I feel the strongest I ever have and have been feel much more educated about not only my condition, but also the body in general. All questions are encouraged and the atmosphere is so positive that I actually felt safe and comfortable to ask for clarification, or maybe a joke, depends on my needs. A thousand thank yous to my amazing therapists and all the staff at MPT. You have personally made a difficult time for me into a positive experience and I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. I will recommend you any day.

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about the physical therapists, front desk staff, and the overall service provided at Manhattan Physical Therapy. They have created a positive environment where the treatment is clearly tailored to the patient, and the medical reasons behind each action taken are explained so that you can learn along the way. Their exercises are designed to heal you in the short term and keep you healthy in the long term as well. Highly recommend if you are ever in need of some PT.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been rehabbing a sprained ankle with virtual sessions over the past few months and MPT has been really great. Everyone that works there is very helpful and seems like they actually like their jobs, which makes doing challenging moves slightly less painful. They’ve also been helpful dealing with my annoying insurance. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have had the best experience at Manhattan Physical Therapy. Not only have I received amazing, personalized care under the care of Joe, John, Darren, Erica, Kevin and Victoria, but I love the environment the team has created. The team listens, has fun, and is always focused on providing outstanding treatment and service. Can't recommend MPT enough!

Fantastic experience: Great place to do your rehab! I injured my knee skiing, and they got me walking normally again within two weeks. They have all kinds of high tech and low tech treatments including acupuncture, laser stimulation, air-compression pants, electro-stimulators, and therapeutic ultrasound. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They make it easy to make appointments that fit into your crazy NYC schedule.

Fantastic experience: great place. Very professional, and yet personable and friendly. Definitely addressing and helping to ease the pain and correct my issue. Dealing with Planter Facetious and Achilles Tendinitis . They have been able to address both issues and get me back and ready to play sports again. Always on time, accommodating to my schedule needs, personalized services and friendly demeanor. Good with flexible hours; handling insurance so :i don't have to deal with it. Overall great experience! Michael A.

Fantastic experience: I love everyone at MPT. They genuinely care about my recovery and are consistent in making sure I come out of the visit better than I came in. I also appreciate the time they take to demonstrate the exercises you can do at home. They take care of the billing w insurance company and that is one less headache for me as I concentrate on getting stronger. And they are flexible w their scheduling which is a plus for me as i have an unusual work schedule. Overall, I totally recommend MPT.

Fantastic experience: There is no better team than the group working at Manhattan Physical Therapy. They listen to your needs, have a ton of patience, and will work diligently to heal your injury. I actually look forward to going to my sessions- not only because I continue to recover from my injury but because I genuinely enjoy the conversations I have when visiting. They’re the best in the city!!

Fantastic experience: In all honesty, I always believed physical therapy wasn't a real form of rehab after an injury or accident. I had lived with chronic ankle pain from having flat feet and years of soccer. And after going to many physical therapists nothing seemed to help. Then finally, after getting the Hypocure surgery on both my ankles in December and February my podiatrist prescribed me PT sessions at Manhattan Physical Therapy. From my very first day I knew the work being done at MPT was unlike any place I had been before. The trainers make sure to make real connections with their patients and for once, they explained everything to me so I got to better understand my own anatomy. After treatment for 5 months, my body is stronger and I feel like I actually know the things I need to improve on to help with my pain. Maggie, Joe, John, and Erica are amazing at their jobs and I'd recommend them to anyone who's lived with chronic pain or needs to go through rehab after a recent injury. Plus all the lovely ladies that work tirelessly behind the desk are super accommodating to my hectic schedule and my perpetual lateness. I love my MPT fam!

Fantastic experience: Excellent place! After having gone to other PT places in Manhattan, I found that MPT was dramatically better than any of the others. The staff Erica, Maggie, John and Joe are extremely attentive and supportive. Truly amazing staff! The Red Cord is a unique and highly effective treatment method and the team combines it with other excel uses to maximize the benefit. My leg improved more in 2 months at MPT than in 4 months at the other PT places.

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough about the professional and caring service. They truly have a holistic approach to healing and strengthening the body. Their staff know just how far to push you and they are always encouraging everyone. I have had the pleasure of coming to MPT for close to a year now. I value their guidance and support in committing to the steps necessary for long term results. If you want to not only address the challenges you may be facing with your body, but to understand how to sustain your progress, this is the perfect team. Plus, they are incredibly sweet and thoughtful! They send birthday and holiday cards to your home! It's always a pleasure seeing them.

Fantastic experience: Manhattan PT is fantastic! The staff truly takes the time to get to know each patient on a personal level. They are knowledgeable, supportive, and develop a customized plan to help you reach your goal. I had morton's neuroma in my foot which was causing extreme discomfort and limiting my ability to walk. Joe and the team attacked the problem with acupuncture and cupping, laser treatments and massaging, and various strengthening exercises that I can continue outside of PT. The flexible hours to accommodate your needs are awesome as they are open early before work and late after work. Everyone from the front desk to the physical therapists to the owner is super friendly and took a vested interest in my progress, but also in my day-to-day life. I would highly recommend Manhattan PT!

Fantastic experience: Everyone was inviting and helpful... At first I was a bit apprehensive about needing PT but Joe was welcoming during my first visit. Erica or as she is called now pink hair lady was amazing, the same goes to Maggie as well. They pushed me to the limits and appreciated their care. Having a monthly payment plan helped tremendously since I didn't have medical insurance. Overall a great experience and would recommend them to any that needs PT. Also the monthly check ups were great incentive to continue doing my exercises after finishing my sessions.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a good physical therapy program, look no further. My experience there was nothing short of amazing! The staff are incredibly knowledgable and the facility is top notch (small, but contains all the tools necessary to recover efficiently). I had the pleasure of working with Erica most of the time after a tough shoulder dislocation, and after two months I am already back in the gym and feeling great. She took the time to walk me through many different exercises and explain exactly WHY we were doing them and what parts of the body they were affecting. The exercise difficulty and my shoulder comfortability increased proportionally, which helped make the process quick and effective. The few times that I worked with Magnolia, she was very helpful as well. Overall, I'd recommend Manhattan Physical Therapy to anyone looking to recover from an injury! 5/5 experience.
