What West Village Patients Are Saying

Real results from runners and active adults who got back to training with confidence.

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.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about starting physical therapy in West Village.

Can I start PT without a doctor's referral in New York?

Yes. New York allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule a phone consult or book your first appointment without seeing a doctor first. If your insurance requires a referral for out-of-network reimbursement, we can help coordinate that after your evaluation.

How long are sessions, and how often will I need to come in?

Sessions are typically 45 to 60 minutes and we have a 2, 3, or 5 month plan depending on your needs. Most people start with one to two visits per week, then adjust based on progress and goals. We build your schedule around your training and life, not rigid protocols.

Will I have to stop running or training while I'm in PT?

Not usually. We build your plan around what you can do safely while we work on the root issue. For most people, smart training is part of the recovery process. If you're mid-marathon plan or training for an event, we'll help you modify your program.

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

We're cash-based by choice so we can give you one-on-one time with a DPT for the full session, use advanced testing tools, and build a plan around your sport and goals—not insurance codes. You're paying for expertise, attention, and data-informed care that gets results.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Wear athletic clothes you can move in shorts or leggings and a t-shirt work great. If you're a runner, bring your current training shoes. If you're working on a lifting or strength issue, be ready to demonstrate movements so we can assess your mechanics.
