Manhattan Sports & Manual Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: At MSMPT, my experience has been that the care and treatment you get from physical therapist Rami is unsurpassed anywhere. He is kind, compassionate, skilled, and obtains the maximum results possible for you. He tailor-makes his routine, and you feel that you have his 100% attention at all times. He also manages to motivate you to do your personal best in following the home routine he prescribes. His physical therapy assistant, Sana, also works very closely with you to help you learn the exercises. She's sweet, gentle, and dedicated to helping. The two make a great team.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been to several Physical Therapists but none of them nearly as good as this one. I've been going there for over 2 yrs. I started going there when I had severe back pain where I could barely walk. After going there for many months I was walking without pain and able to go about my life. I now have shoulder problems due to a bad fall and had to have shoulder surgery. For months I couldn't drive , cook or do much of anything. I went back for treatment for my shoulder and after many treatments I'm now back driving and doing everything I was doing before. I highly recommed Manhattan Sports & Manual Physical Therapy to anyone who needs physical therapy with positve results.

Experiencia fantástica: Zak and his team are the consummate professional. All activities are on point and tailored for each patient. Having been to MSMPT for another issue a few years back. I was extremely pleased that the organization was even better the second time around. Zak and his team did such an excellent job that they saved me from surgery and my doctor could not believe the improvement after 2 months. I would highly recommend MSMPT and to Zak and team a big THANK YOU.

Experiencia fantástica: I came to MS&M PT after tearing my ACL (for the second time, different knee). This is my first time going to a sports PT (I lived in the suburbs before) and I have to say I love them. I highly recommend them if you are in the area.

Experiencia fantástica: I had post acl surgery physio here way back in 2008. I can't remember my physiotherapists name and they are no longer on the website but the service, treatment, care and quality was totally first class. They were really fun to work with as well. My knee has not once come close to buckling since. I'm forever grateful.

Experiencia fantástica: I tore my ACL and used Manhattan Sports & Manual PT throughout the recovery process. I have nothing but good things to say about MSMPT - knowledgeable staff and they are quite welcoming as well. Was always a pleasure to visit, minus the whole torn ACL thing. I highly recommend overall.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred here through my workers comp and I have been pleased with the treatment I am receiving. Rita asks all of the right questions and is super personable. I feel comfortable opening up to her about any troubles I am having and any discomfort I feel. The floor staff are also very knowledgeable and really challenge me. I know that I will only improve as much as the effort I put in, but they have given me the tools to succeed!

Experiencia fantástica: This place was awesome!! I recently sprained my ankle training for the Panasonic Triathlon. I thought that all of my hard work has come to an end because I was only a couple of months away from the race. I found this place via yelp and decided to give it a shot. I worked with Zack first who was not only very kind but really knew his stuff. I'm not very familiar with the terminology or anatomy and Zack really explained these things to me in dumbest terms. I also worked with Lauren, Rami, and kasia who were also a great help as far as my treatment went. I suggest you get the opinion of all the therapists, it's great to get different views of your situation - but if that's not your thing, that works as well. Of course after the first day, I was still unable to run and Zack told me the honest truth of what had happened but gave me hope for the future and possibly being able to make the race. I was however better after the first visit. For those who haven't been to physical therapy, the session starts with the physical therapist working on you or start exercises with the pt aide. I worked with Kenneth and Kate who are both wonderful. They kept track of my exercise routine and any questions that I had I would ask - if they didn't know they would be sure to ask the Physical Therapist and get back to me. They were not only knowledgeable but also personable. The front desk were also great, trying to fit me into the schedule and were able to work around my schedule as well. I ended up being able to take place in the Triathlon and finished! Thank you MSMP, you guys really helped me out. Go here! this place is great!

Experiencia fantástica: Best PT ever!! I have just finished a series of visits. Rami is an excellent therapist! He was very thorough, listened to my needs and my back and neck are much stronger than before. All the staff are upbeat, caring and a wonderful place to be even when having to do workouts! The front desk ladies are the best too! A wonderful happy greeting each time I came in from them. Everyone there is great. I give them all A plus!

Experiencia fantástica: MSMPT is a very special place. It provides a wonderful community, with positive energy, and is an ideal place for rehabilitation. The team for appointments are super approachable and very accommodating. Always greeted with a “great to see you attitude.” I’ve been working with Zach on vestibular, vertigo, neck and migraine issues. Zach was identified by the Cleveland Clinic as the best physical therapist in NYC and he has truly lived up to the billing. His knowledge of the interconnectivity of the body is astounding. His hands on approach and explanation of the work we are doing is amazing. Zach is the best. I also work with Pete for exercises. He is terrific in guiding me and his calm energy and caring is terrific my supportive. MSMPT is a gem!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had just gotten hip labrum surgery and was feeling very defeated after having a negative experience at a different physical therapy place for the first 3 weeks of my recovery. However, upon switching PT places and after my first session with Rami, I was feeling so much better both physically and mentally. Rami is an amazing physical therapist and went above and beyond to ensure I was on the path to recovery. What I value most is that I truly felt so heard by him and the entire staff. I’ve had experiences at other physical therapy places where you spend the majority of your time doing exercises on your own and you never have a chance to voice your goals or concerns with your PT one on one, or worse, they would forget what you discussed the next session. That was never the case here and I really felt like the team cared about and was invested in my recovery. I’m happily back to running distance again and doing all the workouts I used to do, which felt like it would be impossible until I started working with Rami. I cannot recommend MSMPT enough and am forever grateful to Rami and the entire team!

Experiencia fantástica: Just wrapped up PT and I’m blown away by the results! Went from pain with every step to running and playing sports comfortably. Special thanks to Nikola and Pete for their amazing support every week. Their expertise, paired with an always-upbeat demeanor, made each session not only beneficial but genuinely enjoyable. My gratitude extends to the entire staff, who were always kind, professional, and genuine. If you need a place that gets you back on your feet, with a smile no less, this is it. Thanks, guys, for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: Nikola has worked with me during my recovery process before and after surgery. She is knowledgeable, skilled and truly cares about the well-being of her patients. Nikola is constantly evaluating and staying up to date on advancements and best practices in the field to benefit you the most. During sessions, Nikola is empathetic, compassionate, she will frequently check to ensure you are comfortable and not in pain. She closely monitors my progress and adjusts her care plan accordingly. She is a true professional. I underwent surgery knowing that post-surgery I can trust my care in her capable hands. I’m very grateful that I found her. I highly recommend Nikola.

Experiencia fantástica: There are no words to describe how deeply grateful I am for Nikola and the staff. This is the go-to spot to help you heal!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional, listened to me, took seriously my doctor’s suggestions and instructions. Very pleasant team all around and the visits work. That’s the most important thing. They know what they are doing and it works.

Experiencia fantástica: I couldn't recommend these PTs more! I worked through a running injury with Rami and he got me back to training for a half marathon in no time.

Experiencia fantástica: I am an 87 year old man with a serious balance problem. Peter and Sky are helping me do basic balance exercises with patience and kindness. I am fortunate to be working with them.

Experiencia fantástica: I could not recommend Zack and Pete more, they are the best! I came with a torn ACL that I was hoping to treat/strengthen without surgery and after just 8 weeks I am feeling amazing. They ask the right questions, listen to their patients, encourage you but don't push too hard, and provide helpful exercises and care.

Experiencia fantástica: The entire staff here is wonderful. I came in with an injured knee that kept me from comfortably running even one block. Initially I was skeptical that PT would help but Rami and his team helped me so much that I’m back to running again. I can’t thank them enough. 10/10 recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I was treated at this place for 9 months and would highly recommend it to anyone in need of feeling better. The staff and management were completely professional throughout each visit. I can't thank them enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Would 1000% recommend coming here for physical therapy services!! I sprained my ankle pretty badly and needed to do something about rehabilitating it since I work on my feet for 6-9 hours a workday. I was having trouble finding a place to go to because my insurance is from out of the area, but Alex from the front desk worked immediately with me and my insurance in order to insure a good sum of my PT would get covered. Dr. Rami showed genuine care about giving my ankle proper treatment for however long and variable my recovery required, and his team members showed lots of knowledge about what exercises I needed to do throughout the various stages of my recovery. Everyone at MSMPT is amazing and had my best interest at heart--thank you!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been using MS&MPT for the last three months with excellent results. The owner and staff are very knowledgeable, caring, and friendly. It is a large well equipped facility with modern equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been helped by Zack on several occasions. He is very patient and finds different angles to treat physical problems and has a calming effect. Everyone at MSMPT is friendly and very skilled. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: They're the best. I've worked with Tsahi and Christian. So professional, caring about your pain and recovery for real. I've seen many PTs for my knee, they were by far the best and most caring. I am off PT now, and that's also thanks to you guys, thank you Tsahi!

Experiencia fantástica: Can I give this place 10 stars ! I was blessed 15 years ago when I was introduced to Zac , make them a part of your life no matter where in the World you are ! Zac , Rami and Phil truly have healing hands , minds and hearts ! And their sensational support staff ! Athlete , performer , regular human being ! Do yourself a favor , make them a part of your physical , spiritual well being , and you will be truly blessed too !

Experiencia fantástica: Went for a handful of sessions after getting hurt during a trail running event. Rita and her team of trainers were awesome - I am back on my feet and my joints/legs are stronger than ever! Would recommend to any athlete who gets hurt.

Experiencia fantástica: I came to MSaMPT because I had developed groin pain from running. I was concerned I had a labrum tear and really hoped to learn more about what was going as well as find pain relief without surgery. I was not disappointed. David was my primary PT that I worked with and he was easy to talk to and he was very invested in figuring out what was going on without jumping to conclusions or just assuming a diagnosis. He had a very patient centered method of treating. He listened to my concerns and tested my hip joint to get an idea of what we could be dealing with. Through exercise, taping, and lots of discussing what helped and what didn't, we were able to figure out that it was not a labrum tear but my ankle overpronation that was causing the hip/groin pain. By going to my appointments regularly and doing the prescribed exercises at home, and use of shoe inserts, I was able to get back to running after about 3 months treatment. Non-surgical treatment takes time but it was so worth it. David was great and so were the PTA's and the other PTs (Zack and Yuval) that I worked with were also very good and easy to work with. I would recommend no other place at this point.

Experiencia fantástica: MSMPT is so great all around - the physical therapists, the aides/trainers, and the administrative staff - they are all exceptional. The physical therapists at MSMPT are the hardest working and most knowledgable professionals I've ever met. They genuinely care about your health and well-being. They've gotten me out of debilitating back pain countless times. I was totally unable to walk, sit, or stand, but they got me back to being mobile and active again. I don't know what I'd do without them. Thank you, MSMPT.

Experiencia fantástica: My experience here could not have been better. Nice space and always very professional. Yuval and Peter were a pleasure to work with, and they brought my separated shoulder back to 100%. I would recommend to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough about this physical therapy center. Zack and his team did a great job in evaluating my situation and treating it. I Had a hip replacement in January and made the mistake of going to a PT center with limited resources(staff and equipment). As a result my recovery came to a halt. Zack and his team have me back on track. Whether you're recovering from a serious injury or a simple sprain you owe it to yourself to go to Manhattan Sports. Their you best chance to get to normal.

Experiencia fantástica: Rami and Cristian got me back to full strength and more! Great guys who know what they are doing, highly recommend for athletes or anyone who is looking to make a full recovery.

Experiencia fantástica: After getting an MRI and learning that I had several minor tears in my rotator cuff, I had convinced myself that I’d need surgery and started mentally preparing myself for same. Fortunately I had a doctor who immediately said “we’re not rushing into surgery” and recommended 6 weeks of PT with Zack. Still skeptical because of the limited mobility I had, I wasn’t sure it would work but I went. I can honestly say that after the first 2 weeks, I was able to lift my arm higher than I had in months. The pain was still there but obvious progress was being made. By the end of 4 weeks, I was able to lift my arm enough that I could finally do my hair the way I wanted to. As someone who likes to do different things on a regular basis with my hair, not being able to do so was becoming traumatic. (Honestly I think that was the final straw that sent me to the doctor to find out what was going on.) All of the staff, from the receptionists on, are very friendly and helpful. Zack, Peter, Dariya, David and Alex….you guys are great, but I hope I never have to see you again LOL. If I should need PT in the future, have no doubt that I will be returning to your office for treatment.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been coming to MSMPT for a few months now. My issues are lower back and hip pain. I've have worked with Rami, John, David, Pete and Tsahi each one was incredibly insightful and provided not only pain relief but the tools to maintain the health of my hip and back . They are all excellent teachers as to the why and how my hip and lower back behave the way they do. They work as a team, so even though I might see someone different on my next visit, they all are aware of my issues and my progress. A really fine fine team of PTs.

Experiencia fantástica: I fell injured both my knees went to this place in tears wondering if I will get better cause I was having severe pain and was dragging on my feet not able to lift them to walk .My therapist is David who help me to walk after having both knees surgery he is very professional knows his job well he not only helps me with walking he help me in my abundance of stress emotionally and help to motivate me that i will be able to be back to work again he is patient and kind not only to me I watch him treats every individual regardless of age or race he treats every patient the same and that's what makes I want to be there he always have a welcoming attitude he knows his job well not forgetting Christian who works with me very professional patience and knows his job too and Peter and Alex the front desk excellent service and the rest of the therapist very professional great place for recovery and David as I say has being bless with healing hands

Experiencia fantástica: I had minor knee surgery and worked with David for my rehab. I found the facility to be very organized, and my therapist to be very knowledgable and helpful for getting back to 100% very quickly.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at MSMPT really made a huge difference for me! I came to MSMPT after my surgery for a tib-fib fracture 2-3 times a week for almost a year. Rita was my main physical therapist and I truly loved working with her. When I came in I was walking in crutches and could barely bend my right leg. Rita was super professional, very caring, listened to all of my issues and questions, and helped me fully recover. There wasn't a time when I felt like I wasn't making progress. Every session was personalized - Rita worked to help me walk properly again and rebuild strength in the injured leg. I got a chance to work with the other therapists as well (Rami, Zac, David, Daniel), and they are all fantastic. I also worked with almost all of the PT aides - Ricky, Christian, Liz, Pete, George, and others are super friendly, funny and sweet, and would always challenge me with a variety of exercises that I came to love. Everyone at the front desk was always so welcoming, nice, and super receptive anytime I had to call in and cancel or reschedule and appointment. The staff is absolutely exceptional! All of these people have been with me all throughout my recovery process, and I always felt like they were family and friends who really cared for me and who I got to know over the course of a year. I can't but wholeheartedly recommend MSMPT!

Experiencia fantástica: I needed physical therapy to regain range of motion and rebuild strength post major surgery. I returned to Zack (he was wonderful several years ago when I injured my lower back) and could not be more pleased with my experience. Zack and NYU students/interns Macy and Preston were fantastic in helping me with my recovery. I doubt better care is available anywhere - respectful, knowledgable, kind and effective. Clearly above and beyond from every perspective. While I miss seeing them twice a week I am so pleased with the results and to have "graduated".

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Manhattan Sports PT with a shoulder injury. Rita, and the whole staff are fantastic. They help you understand the specifics of your issue, and design exercises that help you gain strength and mobility.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for physical Therapy! I came into MSMPT for physical therapy after surgery to repair my patellar tendon and have had a wonderful experience working with the PTs David, Rita, and Zack and aides, Christian, Renee, and Peter. I’ve been going for the past 7 months and both myself and my surgeon very pleased with the significant progress I’ve made in my mobility, flexion and strength. The facilities are well kept and have all the tools necessary for my full range of exercises and workouts. Everyone has been a joy to work with and I am delighted by the progress I’ve made in my recovery. -More detail below- While I’ve spent the majority of my time working with David, all of the PTs I’ve worked with are knowledgeable, kind, and thorough in making sure that I am progressing well through rigorous and focused exercises. They check in with each other to make sure I am progressing in each session. In addition, they also check in with me during my exercises to ensure that I am comfortable with the movements and maintain proper form. In addition, all of the aides are very attentive and provide fantastic support with knowledgeable advice. I’ve worked mainly with Christian who has given me lifting advice that’s proven useful both in and out of my PT sessions. Him and David are fantastic at pushing me enough to get the most out of every workout and give me great follow up help with stretches and massage for recovery. All together I strongly recommend MSMPT for all your physical therapy needs. They have wonderful staff and facilities to provide quality care.

Experiencia fantástica: With the help of God and this beautiful place, I'm better than what I was before. The therapist, David, and his fellow team were very professional and encouraging to me. Along with that, the exercises was bearable and comfortable. All of this helped me to go above and beyond so that I can be my natural, energetic self once again. Thanks for helping me and I pray that Father God would grow this business and increase all finances in Jesus name.

Experiencia fantástica: I am 68 year old and for the past 25 years I have been going to physical therapy every four or five years. I used to get it in the neck, this time I got in in the Sciatica. Physical therapy usually works for me, if I find the right place that is. This time I wasted almost three months at the wrong PT place. then I found this place. David is my therapist but I have worked with others too. and by far they are the best. every move they make results in positive improvement. They are constantly evaluating my condition and constantly adjusting and every time they do, there is more improvement. when they are not too busy, you see them practicing on each other because they get the best feedback from each other and perfect their moves, they tell me. Not only that the therapist are great but the assistants too are very helpful and very professionals. I would definitely recommend them with no histitation

Experiencia fantástica: I am going to miss David and the personal trainers I worked with. They became family. I went in with lower back pain that hurt even when I coughed and sneezed. Six weeks later, I was able to return to the gym. I highly recommend David. He is a great physical therapist and was very patient with me. He explained each treatment to me with great detail and worked to figure out the cause of my pain. He also gave me a realistic time frame and provided me with stretches and exercises I could do at home. The personal trainers, Christian and Ricky, were very fun and super helpful when it came to the workouts. They helped me identify small form issues and taught me workouts that I could use at the gym. The team eventually figured out that my squat form and deadlift technique may have caused my injury. I learned how to strengthen my core and how to properly do squats and deadlifts. Overall, I recommend completing your physical therapy here. I am going to miss them, but I know where to go if I get injured again!

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t say enough good things about this place. I have been treated like royalty, and even though I’m not one that seeks that service, they do it in a very natural way. They connect with you, care, and from that point on is just positive things. God forbid I get another injury but if I do, no questions asked I’ll come back to MSMP. They respect your time, easy to make apointments. Everything is excellent about this place. I’ll recommend this to anyone family and friends.

Experiencia fantástica: Rami has been my therapist for a few months. He is very skilled, experienced, and intuitive. We've worked on the results of a back injury, but he's also helped me understand the importance of posture, strengthening, and lifestyle changes which will be both corrective and preventative. He takes time during each session, uses hands-on techniques, and seems to truly care about his patients. Additionally all supporting staff are professional and warm. I couldn't recommend MSMPT more highly.

Experiencia fantástica: I felt more than lucky that a friend suggested I come here, and ask for Zac. Finally, real help, caring therapists and a welcoming atmosphere. Zac listens attentively with his hands, his mind and his heart to your body. He finds the places of pain and problem, and knows how to help address them. The people who work with you on exercises especially Elizabeth, are fabulous. Knowledgable, patient, and motivating. I recommend this place completely.

Experiencia fantástica: David is my therapist, but I’ve worked with several members of the team—they are super supportive, and put your best interests forward. I have felt encouraged and challenged throughout my recovery process, and I’ve been provided with great workouts I can do at home, as well as at the gym. I highly recommend MSMPT!

Experiencia fantástica: MSMPT provides outstanding personalized and professional care. I’ve been seeing Rami since February after a MRI revealed bilateral hip labral tears, injuries likely resulting from joint stress over years of dance, yoga and sports practice. I needed a physical therapist who provides holistic, customized, compassionate treatment, but who would also coach and challenge me. Rami and MSMPT came highly recommended from a friend - once told she’d have to give up running - who recovered fully from a spinal injury without surgery and is running again thanks to Rami and Ricky’s care at MSMPT. Although I ultimately made the decision with my doctor to undergo hip arthroscopy, the MSMPT team helped get me in great physical and mental shape before surgery, which has helped my recovery immensely. I’m now 4 months’ post-op and feeling great, and have started jogging and practicing yoga again. The team’s recommended exercises and therapies build on my strengths and target my greatest needs. Ricky’s workouts are challenging and fun, and adaptable to home and gym. I have primarily worked with Rami and Ricky – who are outstanding – but have also had the pleasure of working with PTs Zach, Kara, David, and trainers Elizabeth, Christian and Peter, who are all very experienced, motivating and attentive, and their teamwork is evident and admirable. Concerned with the whole body, they do not simply treat one symptom, displaying a genuine curiosity and commitment to a treating both root and related causes of pain/injury; I came in for a problem with my hips, but I’ve also worked with Kara on treating collateral sacroiliac/SI joint pain, with Zach to improve my gait, and with David (who is also a RYT) on safe yoga poses for hip injuries. The team at reception is also excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. I never worry about paperwork or dealing with the insurance company. I started this journey afraid for how my injuries and surgery would impact my quality of life, but the MSMPT team has changed my life – and my body – for the better. I recommend them enthusiastically!

Experiencia fantástica: Been coming for a couple of months and will continue for at least couple more. Post-bunion surgery, been seeing David. He's personable, careful, accommodating, everything you'd want from your physical therapist. The rest of the staff are also great, no one is above going out of their way to help you. There's an open and homely vibe to everyone that makes the clinic very welcoming. Can get a little crowded sometimes, but I think it's worth a little patience if you know staff is willing to listen to your aches and pains and, of course, if your insurance covers it. Just remember to pull your weight on your road to recovery. David has been helping me gradually push past my comfort zone to regain my full mobility.

Experiencia fantástica: Been going here for a few months. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. David was my main physical therapist. He knows his stuff and through working his regiment I'm feeling much better. Still a long road ahead, but I have faith in this establishment. I'd recommend David without any hesitations.

Experiencia fantástica: Rami is an incredible physical therapist. He's attentive, compassionate, and takes the time to really get to know his patient and their problems. I've been working with him now for over a year on my back and a variety of other issues I've had and I've made great progress thanks to him and his team. Ricky and Christian and the rest of the staff have helped providing great support and challenging me with my exercises. The front desk staff are always warm, welcoming and helpful. Definitely the best PT team I've seen in NYC!
