Flatiron Patients Are Seeing Results

Real outcomes from runners and active adults who refused to settle.

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!

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.

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!

Frequently Asked Questions

What you need to know about starting PT near the Flatiron District.

Can I start physical therapy without seeing my doctor first?

Yes. New York allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule a phone consult or book your first visit without a physician referral. If your insurance requires a referral for possible reimbursement, we can help coordinate that after your initial evaluation.

How long are sessions, and how many will I need?

Sessions are typically 45 to 60 minutes which are 2, 3, and 5 months, one-on-one with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Most people start with one to two visits per week, then adjust based on progress. After your evaluation, we'll give you a clear sense of what to expect.

Will I need to stop running or training during PT?

Not usually. We build your plan around what you can do safely while we address the root cause. For most people, smart training is part of the recovery process. If you're training for a race, we'll help you modify your plan as needed.

Why is this more expensive than traditional PT clinics in NYC?

We're cash-based by choice so we can provide one-on-one time with a DPT, use advanced testing tools like running gait analysis and force plates, and create plans around your sport and goals—not insurance restrictions. You're paying for personalized care and outcomes that last.

What should I bring to my evaluation?

Wear athletic clothes you can move in—shorts or leggings and a t-shirt are ideal. Runners should bring their current training shoes. If you're working on strength or lifting issues, be ready to demonstrate movements so we can evaluate your form.
