Physical Therapists in Chelsea NYC
Built for People Who Want to Keep Moving
We're a team of physical therapists who built reCOOPERate to give active adults in West Village and greater NYC the one-on-one care they deserve. Every session is with a DPT who knows your sport, your training plan, and your goals. No aides, no distractions, no cookie-cutter programs.
Why We Started reCOOPERate
Traditional physical therapy wasn't built for people who train hard and move often. We saw too many runners, CrossFitters, and active professionals leave PT frustrated because they never got enough time with their provider, their care didn't fit their sport, or they were rushed through generic exercises that didn't address the root cause of their pain. We created reCOOPERate to change that by offering one-on-one DPT care with advanced manual therapy, data-informed testing, and programming designed around the demands of your life and your training. I have 10+ years experience in a network practice and the team has over 20+ years combined experience.
Our Approach
What You Can Expect From Every Session
These principles guide how we work with every patient, whether you're a marathoner recovering from a running injury or a postpartum patient building strength to return to exercise.
We Listen Before We Plan
Your first visit starts with understanding your goals, your training history, and what's been tried before. We build your plan around your life, not a template we pull from a file.
We Educate, Not Just Exercise
You'll leave every session understanding why you're doing each movement, how it connects to your goals, and what to watch for as you progress. Knowledge builds confidence.
We Build Resilience, Not Quick Fixes
We're not interested in temporarily masking pain. We focus on addressing the root cause, building capacity, and reducing your risk of future flare-ups so you stay consistent long-term. We believe that you should always live your best life.
We Progress With You
Your plan evolves as you improve. We reassess regularly, adjust based on how your body responds, and celebrate the wins along the way without locking you into a rigid protocol.

What Our Patients Say
Hear from runners and active adults who've worked with us.
I have been to reCOOPERate for Achilles pain and pelvic floor therapy, working with the whole team. Drs. Jason, Sama, and Shreyal provided so much 1-1 attention for my Achilles and really helped me come back to running without pain. The pelvic floor therapy sessions with Sama were positive and helpful and I learned so much that I can use moving forward.
Maggie
I can't say enough good things about ReCOOPERate PT! I started seeing Sama after suffering from an Achilles injury this summer. Within a month of seeing her, she got me back to running pain free! Jason and his entire staff have helped me so much over the past few years. They are all kind, attentive, and so knowledgeable about what they do. Can't recommend enough--thank you Sama, Jason, and team!
Katie H.
Huge thank you to Shreyal, Jason and co. I had been struggling with rotator cuff pain for months and couldn’t get back to doing the workouts I love — especially pull-ups. The team here was incredible from start to finish. They really took the time to assess what was going on, explained everything clearly, and built a plan that actually worked. Each session pushed me just enough, and I could feel steady progress week after week. Highly recommend this clinic to anyone dealing with shoulder issues or looking for knowledgeable, supportive physical therapists.
Mick
Getting injured during marathon training, working with Jason not only helped me to get rehabilitated to running again but also getting to catch up with Jason was one of my weekly highlights. He helped with moral support during the injury and the exercises / rehab were all very personalized and effective. Truly the best PT I've ever gone to!
Makenzie G.
Jason is amazing! He helped me recover from several injuries from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He's patient, focused, and very considerate. I highly, highly recommend him!
Yong L.
Jason is an incredible physical therapist!! He has helped glad me through several running-related injuries and recoveries during marathon training and beyond. He's incredibly knowledgeable and thoughtful when it comes to programming strength training and he listens extremely carefully and cares deeply about his patients. I'd recommend him to anyone!
Matt D.
I can't recommend ReCOOPERate enough! I've been to a lot of physical therapists in my life and I've never received such incredible attention and dedication to my rehabilitation than Jason (and everyone) at ReCOOPERate. It really is an entirely different experience where they are focused on your goals and how to get you there, which makes the journey and results truly in a league of their own. I had a few particularly tricky issues that were all interconnected and Jason addressed them each and as a wholistic unit, which got me to a physical place that I didnt think was possible. I feel so much better than I did a few months ago because of this. Plus, he's an absolute pleasure! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Zachary G.
Jason is amazing to work with. His wealth of knowledge allows him to carefully listen to all of your issues and fix the root of each problem. There has been no issue, knot or injury too big for him to fix. If anyone can help you overcome an injury it would be Jason. Did I forget to mention he is also just a great guy.
Will R.
For years I've dealt with debilitating injuries, many of which kept me on the sidelines, unable to participate in the activities I once enjoyed. The therapy I've received at reCOOPERate has me on a trajectory to be stronger and healthier than I was before. Working with therapists like Dr. Sama has been a great experience, she's extremely knowledgeable and personable.
Wilfredo D.
I started seeing Jason immediately after I had my first child. I was suffering incredible back pain (si joint) as a result of pregnancy, combined with a challenging and painful labor and delivery; I couldn't even walk! I was convinced that I wouldn't heal. After seeing Jason for 4 weeks I was completely back to normal, I truly couldn't believe how good I felt. I have continued to see Jason for maintenance with my back and to treat a variety of other problem areas, and he always gets by body back to baseline and feeling better again. He's incredible!
Trish E.
i've worked with other pt's in the past, and jason is--by far--the best. jason worked with me after a recent knee injury, and subsequent surgery. every step of the way, he created, monitored and adjusted both my in-office and at-home programs to ensure maximum healing and strength-building. his approach includes both eastern and western techniques, and varies enough to keep you invested and interested. jason goes the extra mile for his patients and i could not recommend him more highly.
Umber A.
I can't thank Jason enough for his expertise and support during my training for the NYC marathon. As the owner of reCOOPERate PT, Jason is incredibly knowledgeable and has a deep understanding of how to approach injuries, especially those that are running related. I came to him with a frustrating case of runner's knee, and Jason created a tailored rehab and strength training plan that not only helped me recover but also made me a stronger runner overall. His approach is thorough, focused on both short-term recovery and long-term performance. Thanks to Jason's guidance, I was able to push through and complete the marathon pain-free. I highly recommend reCOOPERate PT to anyone looking for personalized, expert care!
Serena P.
Jason is the absolute best. Attentive, skilled, intuitive, and most important, he cares deeply about his clients and makes sure that all of the work you do together will help in the healing and recovery process. So grateful to you Jason!
Sepideh M.
In 2020, I received treatment from Jason on my left hip. I couldn't recommend him more. I was contemplating surgery and was managing regular pain. Through our work together, I was able to resume normal activity and avoid surgery. The combination of strength training and ART is a game changer.
Sarah H.
reCOOPERate is the best! I absolutely loved working with Sama! She’s so encouraging, positive, and truly takes a thoughtful approach to healing. She made PT something I looked forward to and helped me get to my marathon injury-free. I can’t recommend enough!
Sarah H.
Both my wife and I have received physical therapy for sports-related injuries, and I was more of a frequent flyer having right shoulder issues and left hip issues. As a physician, I was impressed by his knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics. As a healer, he was amazing. Great demeanor, empathy, kindness and caring. Although I am currently living in Toronto, if I need physical therarpy, I will continue to see him and fly down to NYC. He is that good.
Risto F.
I’ve been going to Jason for quite a few years. He has changed my life. I am a Tree Climber by trade and I’ve had a number of major injuries, including five surgeries. At one point I couldn’t even drive a car. Jason worked on my entire body. Every single part of me that was injured or had surgery. He has got me back to work, running my business again and actually doing some physical work. He’s got me doing things that I never thought I would ever be able to do again, he is very knowledgeable. You can tell he’s very experienced and knows exactly what he’s doing. He takes the input of the patient as well. There is a plan in place when you start so that you’re always on the same page. I’ve been to many Physical Therapist along my way and Jason hands-down is the best. I’m very thankful that I found him.
Regina R.
Would highly recommend for all sorts of running injuries! Came highly recommended through the Mile High Club community, and could not agree more.
Robyn T.
Jason is a great physical therapist! I appreciate that he really listened to my description of the pain that I was having and gave me exercises to strengthen and achieve my goals. He helped me with my knee pain while I was training for a half marathon and then I went back to him when I got tennis elbow that was impacting my everyday life. I am happy to report that after working with Jason, I no longer have knee pain or tennis elbow. I’d highly recommend Jason Cooper if you need a physical therapist. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable.
Rebecca A.
Jason has helped me train for and successfully compete in countless marathons and ultra-marathons over the past 10 years. Without Jason, I would not be the runner and coach I am today. A runner himself, Jason works magic by thoughtfully diagnosing symptoms or muscular imbalances and applying relevant hands-on and strengthening techniques to address the fundamental issues. Jason is incredibly knowledgeable, practical, and caring and the best PT I have worked with. I highly recommend seeing him not only when you have an issue but also for preventative therapy!
Raj H.
Dr. Copper really helped me get ready for my big race. Was injured a few weeks prior to New York City marathon Doc really was instrumental and getting ready, just one appointment. I highly recommend him in his practice.
Peter C.
Jason is an incredible PT! He’s usually out of network so it may cost more than in network places like Spear, but his knowledge is unrivaled. He’s able to diagnose the likely scenario much better than any PT I have ever seen, in the first 10 minutes of the session. He stays with you the entire time and answers any questions you might have, unlike other PT places where you get a trained PT for 30 min and a tech for 30 min. I recommend Jason to all my friends and family who have any issue, big or small, because he has always been incredibly helpful and well worth the money.
Peter L.
As a lifelong runner, I have been to many physical therapists over the years and Jason is the best. I was barely able to walk when I first saw him due to a hip injury. He helped me return to running and playing soccer at full form (just completed a half marathon without hip pain!) He is extremely knowledgeable and tailors his sessions hands-on to each individual and stage of the injury... doesn't just toss on a heat pack and give you a cookie cutter exercise regimen. His focus on preventative strengthening is awesome... he really cares and wants to make sure it doesn't happen again. Highly recommend for any sports injury!
Noah M.
Jason is so incredibly talented. Took me many years and many PTs to find someone that could actually help heal me. Best there is!
Nicola R.
Jason fixed my carpel-tunnel wrecked hand and helped me draw without being in agony
Molly C.
Best PT ever! If you're a runner and looking for someone who is extremely knowledgeable, save yourself some time with trial and error and just book a session with Jason! So knowledgeable, helpful, and gets to the issue STAT. Could not recommend enough!
Niña B.
I saw Jason for a couple of months after experiencing a SLAP tear and stress fracture, and he helped me avoid surgery and get to a place where I knew how to control the injury. He taught me about the anatomy of my shoulder, what aggravated the injury, how to strengthen compensatory muscles, and provided manual therapy to reduce the acute pain. I would highly recommend Jason to anyone looking for a dedicated, thoughtful, and talented PT!
Ned L.
Highly recommend Dr. Cooper! I've had a few nagging issues that have impacted my running for years, that didn't quite qualify as "injuries" but felt worth getting checked out. Dr. Cooper was so helpful in pinpointing where I had weaknesses that I needed to work on, and has a great approach of treating and strengthening before things become full-on injuries. Plus he's just very kind and great to work with :)
Michelle B.
I started seeing Jason about a year and a half ago. I was bouncing between practices and really seeking a partnership with a Physical Therapist who can understand and work with the complexities that come with a physical disability, joint replacements, spasticity, tone, and my unique need for whole body function that looks different than your average PT patient. After years of searching, I can confidently say that Jason delivers on all of these needs and more. His bedside manner and individualized approach has me feeling and moving consistently better than I have in years. Highly recommend seeing Jason - whether you're an athlete in recovery or simply looking to maximize your quality of life!
Meredith A.
Jason is the reason I am able to ENJOY running again! Before reCOOPERate, I was dealing with agonizing knee pain. I had gone from being able to race a half marathon, to only being able to run for about 30 seconds before feeling stabbing pain in my outer knee. Jason's expertise and and tailored rehab plans were essential to building the strength I needed–but so was his kind, warm, and encouraging approach that gave me the extra boost I needed to give myself grace, and work WITH my body rather than against it!! I've since been able to complete my first full marathon, and I was able to enjoy it the whole way, injury-free!
Melissa L.
Jason and Cristina are the best out there. Jason has been working with me for almost 8 years through countless marathons, triathlons, and recently, my first Ironman. You’ll always leave a session feeling like there was some sort of magic done to your muscles. I also really appreciate that they empower you to do exercises on your own, reasonable strength routines with palpable results.
Matthew C.
Huge thank you to Shreyal, Jason and co. I had been struggling with rotator cuff pain for months and couldn’t get back to doing the workouts I love — especially pull-ups. The team here was incredible from start to finish. They really took the time to assess what was going on, explained everything clearly, and built a plan that actually worked. Each session pushed me just enough, and I could feel steady progress week after week. Highly recommend this clinic to anyone dealing with shoulder issues or looking for knowledgeable, supportive physical therapists.
Mick D.
I've been working with Jason for over 7 years on and off throughout a variety of my athletic pursuits. From some of my more tricky nagging issues to just getting tuned up before a race I'm always asking myself why I didn't get in to see him sooner. He's not just good at getting me right, but he is transparent, listens and walks me through the ins and outs of everything we're doing.
Matteo S.
Jason is a brilliantly talented physical therapist whose skill and dedication allowed me to return to playing the piano after a five-year hiatus due to chronic wrist tendinitis. I’ll never be able to thank him enough for that gift. He is present, communicative, and a joy to work with.
Marcus O.
Jason is one of the best PT I ever had. He is attentive, empathetic, listens to your problems and comes up with an effective recovery plan. His manual therapy is great and so as his exercise program that brings you to recovery.
Makiko N.
Jason is the best in the business, plain and simple. You wont find someone more knowledgeable, kind, professional, and truly talented at what he does. I initially went to him for help treating my torn hip labrum, as I spent 3 months at Spear PT with no signs of improvement. As a marathoner, my goal was to get back to running as soon as possible and be able to start training for the 2023 NYCM. Within a month, Jason helped get me back on my feet and start running again. Aside from my labrum, I dealt with various injuries this training cycle, a strained soleus, a tight IT band causing outer knee pain, all of which Jason helped me treat. Thanks to Jason I was able to run the NYC Marathon this year and PR, running a 3:07 marathon, cutting 8 minutes off my time from the previous year. I truly trust Jason with my life. Not only will he help you with your injuries, but his methods will help bring you back to what you love doing better than ever! THANK YOU JASON!!!
Kristina P.
I have been to reCOOPERate for Achilles pain and pelvic floor therapy, working with the whole team. Drs. Jason, Sama, and Shreyal provided so much 1-1 attention for my Achilles and really helped me come back to running without pain. The pelvic floor therapy sessions with Sama were positive and helpful and I learned so much that I can use moving forward.
Maggie M.
Super effective PT that allowed me to safely and quickly return to my favorite activities after repeated ankle issues. Jason is extremely knowledgeable and was able to craft my treatment based on my target timeline and goals. Highly recommend!
Lauren Z.
Super nice and helpful! Would recommend!
Lizzie D.
Dr. Jason helped me get to the start line pain free! I was having discomfort in my lower back that was preventing me from running my best. After a few sessions with him, my back pain was relieved and I was able to PR my marathon. I would recommend him to any runner who is looking to fix a nagging issue quickly.
Kristin A.
If you are a runner and looking for PT, look no further. Jason is easily the best PT I've ever had - he helped me with a quick recovery before my half marathon and gave me the confidence boost that I needed. You get an hour long 1:1 session where the first half is hands-on for immediate relief, and the second half is exercises to help strengthen your body for the future. 10/10 recommend!
Kira F.
After not running for 3 years, ReCooperate PT had me running after 8 sessions. When I contacted ReCooperate I felt like I was out of options, I had tried PT twice before and even had surgery to fix my underlying condition and continued to have pain 10 months later. After my first session at ReCooperate, I immediately felt better, I went from not being able to walk down the stairs without pain to running pain free after 8 weeks. I highly recommend ReCooperate's one on one PT for the best, most individualized care.
Kerry K.
ReCOOPerate is a special place! Jason and his whole team are dedicated to both carefully diagnosing your pain and comprehensively educating each client about their body. They are generous with their care and spend the full hour session focused solely on you, no distractions. I’ve been working with Sama on chronic sports specific upper back pain and I leave each session with more mobility and less pain. Sama has helped me address both my back injury and more! It’s quite common that she notices that I am compensating with other muscle groups and is always quite flexible in helping me with what needs the most attention. It’s so rare to find a PT that both gets to know their clients and has the resources to dedicate sufficient time to them. I feel fortunate to have found ReCOOPerate and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate PT.
Kayla S.
Gamechanging PT. Dramatically better than any PT I've had before
Krishna K.
I can't say enough good things about ReCOOPERate PT! I started seeing Sama after suffering from an Achilles injury this summer. Within a month of seeing her, she got me back to running pain free! Jason and his entire staff have helped me so much over the past few years. They are all kind, attentive, and so knowledgeable about what they do. Can't recommend enough--thank you Sama, Jason, and team!
Katie H.
If you're a runner and have running related injuries, reCOOPERate PT is the place to go! I saw Jason for various injuries while training for the Chicago marathon. I left every PT session feeling better than before and thanks to Jason, I crossed the finish line pain free with a PB. If you're looking for a PT who is committed to individualized care and genuinely cares, look no further!
Julia D.
Great physiotherapist! Helped a lot with my back pain
Joseph P.
As an aging recreational athlete across multiple sports, I rely on physical therapy to stay active, and Jason Cooper has kept me on my feet. He is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, has injury expertise, and uses the full range of treatment techniques to sustain my mobility.
Jodi B.
Jason is absolutely amazing! I have been to so many physical therapists but he provides a unique experience. The room is clean, calm, and soothing. He is so so knowledgeable and has fixed my runners knee and low back pain. Highly recommend!
Karolina R.
Incredibly grateful to Jason for helping me through a rough case of Plantar Fasciitis. I tried shoe inserts, accupuncture, podiatrist visits and had been in pain for almost a year. When I started PT, I was back to running in about 6 sessions. Great guy and a really good physical therapist.
Jeff H.
I've worked with Jason over many years when rehabbing various sports injuries. Jason is the best physical therapist I've ever worked with: knowledgeable, kind, and focused on getting me back to my normal level of performance and activity. He's great at identifying different triggers that might be causing pain and at coming up with exercises that build strength and durability without making existing injuries worse.
Janak R.
Jason is a fantastic physical therapist. He has helped me regain strength and mobility in addition to eliminating low back pain issues. On top of being an exceptional therapist (I've worked with many), he is kind, motivating, and very fun. I highly recommend working with reCOOPERate Physical Therapy!
Jared T.
Jason is experienced, knowledgeable, practical, and compassionate. He has helped me through 2 injuries, and gotten me back on my feet. Aside from in-person help (discussion, massage, directed exercise) he has an online suite of brief exercise demos. When you get an exercise prescription from Jason, you get a customized set of demos that you can access on your phone. This really helps you to remember what you should be doing at home.
Jan B.
I have worked with many PTs and can say Jason is at the top of his craft. His incredible knowledge base combined with his passion for helping others has proved very effective in solving my most pressing injuries and returning back to running. Highly recommend!
Jason M.
Jason has always been super helpful - he really cares about his clients and is a pleasure to work with.
James H.
I have worked with Jason several times over the years with a variety of issues. He is the epitome of a professional with the best bedside manner. He always takes the time to listen to your concerns and tailors a program especially for you, taking into consideration your schedule, level of commitment and your physical health. Jason always has your best interests at heart and will always be there to help! I wouldn’t trust my physical rehabilitation with anyone else.
Jacqui B.
I had a minor tweak pre marathon and frantically reached out to Jason as he was referred through a friend. He happened to be on vacation when I reached out but was extremely responsive with knowledge at home treatments and was extremely helpful when I finally saw him the following week!
Jacob S.
Jason was the best phyical therapist I have ever been to. He is easily approachable, extremely knowledgeable and has a knack for inspiring his clients on way to their recovery. I would recommend him to anyone.
James A.
Jason has been an incredible help in getting me ready for the NYC Marathon while working through both Achilles tendinitis and IT band issues. He’s extremely knowledgeable, patient, and takes the time to explain everything, from stretches and strengthening exercises to recovery routines. He’s also just a genuinely nice and encouraging person to work with, which makes every session enjoyable. I’ve made huge progress since starting with him and feel confident heading into race day thanks to his guidance. Highly recommend!
Jack H.
Jason is a fantastic physical therapist and has helped me work through nagging pains to keep me running races. He approaches my sessions with a perfect mix of hands-on therapy and preventative strength work. Highly recommended for athletes (especially runners) - so much better than a generic PT!
J M.
Jason was key to my success in my first marathon (NYC). I got plantar fasciitis halfway through training, and Jason worked on my injury about 2x a week for a few weeks. Partnered with great exercises and stretches that he gave me, I was able to run completely pain free within a number of weeks and complete the marathon also pain free. Jason brings such a positive and kind energy to his work. I genuinely can’t recommend Jason enough as a physical therapist and person to anyone looking to rehab an injury or even just maintain good physical health.
Grace A.
The best PT ever!! I'm training for a marathon and every week when I come in with something new that's hurting, Jason is always ready with a personalized fix! Great mix of hands on work to help with immediate relief and smart strength training for future prevention. Makes me feel like I have a whole team on my side, could not recommend enough!
Francesca S.
I was referred to Jason by multiple people and could not recommend him more highly! Jason is extremely knowledgeable, and has helped me through multiple issues and injuries (foot, hip, back, etc). He has helped me understand different areas of weakness I have and has really helped me improve my strength and mobility, especially as it relates to running. I couldn’t have made it through the NYC Marathon without Jason. He is also incredibly empathetic, patient and warm which is so helpful through injury/pain frustration. I have sent multiple friends to Jason, and trust that he could help anyone with any issue!
Hannah S.
Jason has been my trusted physical therapist for several years. He has treated me for a variety of issues – from shoulder, hip/lower back and ankle problems. He is present and truly listens to his patient's needs. His exercises and treatments have allow me to safely and gradually straighten back to enjoying my sports activities. Jason really cares about his patient's recovery, he also does what he can to work around one's crazy schedule. I highly recommend Jason to anyone seeking sports rehabilitation and physical therapy, you will not be disappointed.
Felicia D.
I was referred to Jason by a friend after a torn hip labrum diagnosis and little progress with another PT. I am a competitive marathoner who, before my injury, could handle 60+ mile weeks. When I first started working with Jason I couldn't even run 5 miles a week without feeling pain. Through manual therapy and a targeted strength training program, Jason gave me the treatment and tools to not only overcome my injury, but become a better runner overall. My pain has subsided to almost zero, I run my first 70 mile week ever during my most recent training cycle, and I just ran my first sub 3 hour marathon. I recommend Jason to anyone struggling with an injury!
Emily V.
I have worked with Jason extensively over the last year while rehabbing from a serious car accident. His extensive experience and compassionate nature speaks volumes to anyone needing PT. He is an extremely skilled practitioner and always very positive and supportive as you progress to recovery! Highly recommend him and always very grateful!
Emily S.
I have had lingering knee and SI joint pain from previous injuries and Jason has provided me the most attentive and personalized care yet! In an hour session he does manual therapy for the full first half hour, and then personally works with you on exercises for the second half. This is a different experience than most physical therapy offices, that I prefer. He has years of experience working in different environments and is happy to share his extensive knowledge. He has helped relieve my pain so that I have the confidence to pursue old activities I have missed, like dancing all night long and running. I highly recommend Jason and his new practice.
Emily R.
Jason is a great PT! He addressed my running injuries and was very thorough in his assessment. Beyond that, he is kind and supportive, and a pleasure to work with. 10/10 recommend!
Emily M.
Jason & his team are so knowledgeable, not to mention some of the kindest people. They know how to safely care for you AND educate you to build your own awareness to take care of yourself. Jason’s experience, education, and passion for his work have provided me so much relief for a back and hips that have been tight and weak. He’s changed my life!
Daniela K.
Jason is the the absolute best physical therapist out there. I started working with him in 2018 after I had a cervical spine injury working as a bedside nurse. Not only did he get me back to baseline, but I felt stronger than I did before my injury and therefore better able to care for my patients. He also supported me both during my pregnancy and postpartum, when I experienced a lot of hip pain. He was able to relieve the pain, while also giving me at home exercises to ensure I was able to maintain on my own. Not only is he great at what he does, but he really cares about his clients.
Elizabeth J.
Working with Cristina has been an amazing experience. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, but she always listens to what I have to say and takes it into account, which isn’t always the case with other PTs. Working with someone one on one for an entire hour also makes a huge difference, and I’ve already seen major improvement within just a few months.
Dena B.
Jason Cooper is a care specialist unlike any I've ever had the privilege of knowing. I've been through two surgeries with Jason, and each time he ensured I was back on my feet in healthy and working order.
Dominic G.
Cristina helped me overcome a knee injury that forced me to miss my goal race last year. In just a couple of months I feel like I’m back in ultra-distance fighting shape! I can’t recommend their practice enough. Cristina actually listens and cares about getting her patients back to doing what they love! Both her and Jason are very informative and check in on your progress often! Sessions can include movement assessments, body work— stretching, mobility, ART, cupping, along with strength/stability movements AND you get sent home with exercises to do in between sessions. 10/10 go see them!
Danny S.
Went to Jason for several months to get over a knee injury. In addition to being highly knowledgeable, Jason took the time to deeply understand my injury and goals in recovery, and crafted a exercise regimen that would work for me. If you find yourself in need of PT, highly recommend considering him.
Daniel L.
In terms of professionalism and knowledge, I haven't worked with a better person or PT. Jason takes time to understand the injury, explain the injury and begin treatment. He offers a wealth of experience and is an excellent communicator. I had numerous injuries from lots of tournament golf and some desk based back and neck injuries. I still use the same exercises to this day to keep my body healthy. If I have issues, Jason would be my first call.
Daniel H.
Jason is one of the finest PT’s I’ve ever worked with. Knowledgeable, thoughtful, thorough, and always positive. Thanks to Jason I’ve gotten back on my feet in record time. A total pleasure to work with too.

Jason is the real deal. Came for a consultation after a dislocated shoulder and came back several times after - well worth it. Jason is so knowledgable, has a variety of techniques and will answer any questions you have throughout the process. Can't recommend enough going at least once if you're looking for a personalized PT!

Jason Cooper is simply the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with. He’s helped me through three different injuries over the last seven years. In all of them, he was incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. Jason also made himself available for communicating between appointments to ensure I was carrying through with our exercise plan safely and effectively. He’s made it possible for me to get back to the exercises I love and for that, I’m forever grateful.

From stiff neck to strong back! In 10 sessions, Dr. Cristina was able to help me work through years (7) of pain. Unlike any other PT care I've received, she saw my body as a whole and addressed my concerns and other issues contributing. Now, I am confident in my body's ability to lift, squat, and move comfortably for work and everything else. I am confident she can do the same for you!

Jason is THE. BEST. He's so kind, really listens, and works with you to get to the root of what's causing your injury. In the hour-long, one-on-one session you receive manual therapy & massage + learn exercises (since it's one-on-one you have Jason's full attention so he can correct any form issues and/or provide adaptions, which I love). He's extremely knowledgeable and is the reason I made it through my last marathon. I cannot recommend him enough...I just wish I'd found him sooner!

Jason is a singularly exceptional physical therapist. He is an active listener, taking in 100% of the individual's injury and recovery experience while also learning his client's essential character. He pairs all that textured information with what the aggregate, peer-reviewed science guides -- and, voila, the healing truly begins. Jason is dedicated, curious, compassionate, patient and real. I am stronger after my two years in Jason's care than I have ever been -- on multiple fronts. I am beyond grateful for the outcomes I achieved.

This has been my first time to PT and I can’t say enough good things about it. Jason is incredible and spends serious TLC with the injury, rather than stretching you out and handing you off to someone else. It’s out of my network, but this business has been so helpful with reimbursements and superbills. I would recommend highly to my friends and family!

Jason is an exceptional physical therapist—highly knowledgeable, attentive, and truly committed to personalized care. His 1-on-1 treatment approach makes every session feel focused and effective. The facility and team members are welcoming. I highly recommend ReCOOPERate PT!

I started PT with Jason for my shin splints that I tend to get within 0.5 of a mile and he’s been very helpful overall. My appointments with Jason are comfortable and social, he’s also very knowledgeable and great at explaining things to me.

After a pretty disappointing experience at another facility that I went to primarily because of convenience and insurance, I found my way to Jason and I could not be happier that I did. Not only have my first 10 sessions with him made a huge difference in the injury I needed treatment for in the first place, but he has worked with me to address other areas of discomfort in my body that are all seemingly connected. He is patient, thorough, personable yet professional, consistently on time, reliable, and incredibly attuned to my individualized needs and interests. Cannot recommend him highly enough! He has also done paperwork for me to submit OON claims for reimbursement that he does not have to do but has been willing to do in order to help the process go as smoothly as possible to get reimbursement where I can.

Dr. Jason Cooper is absolutely amazing. He’s helped me work past a Morton’s neuroma and joint pains through adjustments/helpful exercises. As an athlete himself, he understands what’s needed to achieve my goals. I was able to return to running races and do my first triathlon with Dr. Cooper’s help!

Jason is knowledgeable, patient, articulate, holistic, kind, and most importantly, healing. I have returned to him time and time again with different issues, and each time he’s improved my state of being. What’s more, I never did my at-home exercises until I found Jason 😊
Annie C.
Jason has been working with me and my husband. My husband has been working with him for several months and has improved dramatically. I’ve been working with him for a shorter time and I can already feel myself getting stronger in week areas. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He is also very professional and a pleasure to work with. We both highly recommend Jason and will work with him in the future if needed!

After seeing many different PTs around the city for years, once I found Jason I never left. Truly one of the best there is — attentive, knowledgable, and damn good.

Jason has been an amazing Physical Therapist! He has a ton of knowledge and was crucial in the healing of my lower back and neck issues. He is easy to work with, gave me excellent treatment and exercises to heal. After years of physical therapy for various injuries, Jason has been the most effective therapist I have seen! I Highly recommend him.
Andrea W.
I've worked with Jason in two different offices and on three different body parts. He's always been tremendously helpful, informative, and a joy to work with. I've been to many PTs and trainers, and he listens and understands better than any of them. I highly recommend seeing Jason!

Jason is a great physical therapist who really cares about his patients. He was super attentive to any issues or pain that I was experiencing and how it changed week to week. I saw him for about 10 weeks while I was training for the NYC marathon (I was having knee issues) and he is definitely a reason why I was able to successfully complete my race. Cannot recommend enough!
Allison M.
Jason is the best PT I've worked with! He is extremely knowledgable, kind, and professional. He helped me recover quickly to run my best half marathon after being injured for over a month!
Alice S.
Jason is such an incredible practitioner. He's empathetic, listens to your needs and goals, and gives you strategies on how to implement them. I've been working with him for 6 months for a recurring back issue and he's helped me tremendously in increasing strength, and getting me back to the activities I love doing. Couldn't recommend him more!
