Physical therapy offers a range of advantages that can improve your quality of life. It helps reduce pain, restore mobility, and enhance physical function, allowing you to return to daily activities with greater ease.
By addressing the root causes of discomfort, physical therapy promotes long-term recovery and prevents future injuries. It also supports post-surgical rehabilitation, helping patients regain strength and flexibility. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or managing a chronic condition, physical therapy provides personalized care tailored to your unique needs.
Physical therapy is effective in managing and treating different conditions. These include musculoskeletal injuries, such as sprains, strains, and fractures, as well as chronic pain conditions like arthritis and back pain.
It is also beneficial for neurological disorders, including stroke recovery and Parkinson’s disease management. Post-operative rehabilitation for procedures like knee replacements and spinal surgeries is another key area of focus. Additionally, physical therapy addresses sports injuries, geriatric mobility issues, and recovery from accidents, ensuring thorough care for patients of all ages and backgrounds.
Exercises targeting the lower back and pelvis are essential for improving stability, flexibility, and strength in these areas. These movements help alleviate pain caused by muscle strain, poor posture, or injuries. Common exercises include pelvic tilts, bridges, and gentle stretches that focus on the lumbar spine and surrounding muscles. Incorporating these exercises into your routine can enhance core strength, support proper alignment, and reduce the risk of future discomfort or injury.
Upper back, neck, and shoulder exercises are designed to relieve tension, improve posture, and restore mobility. These exercises often include stretches, such as shoulder rolls and neck rotations, as well as strengthening movements like rows and scapular squeezes. Regular practice can ease stiffness, reduce pain from prolonged sitting or repetitive activities, and promote better alignment. Strengthening these areas also helps prevent strain and supports overall upper body function.
The physical therapists at Pain Physicians NY are athletes themselves who understand the human body well and will help you regain your mobility, restore function and prepare each patient to a return to the sport they love. Training and rehabilitation need to be sport-specific and that is the approach taken at Pain Physicians NY.
Post-operative therapy and rehab is critical for a patient to return to full function after surgery, it needs to be thorough, timely, and specific to each individual and their goals and mobility levels. The physical therapists at Pain Physicians NY work closely with the surgeon and patient to provide the most comprehensive post-operative care and have each patient achieve their mobility goals. Some common surgical procedures we rehabilitate are:

We want to prevent falls, increase safety, increase function and independence in society. We set up programs and individual treatment plans to help each patient achieve their goals and resume safe and quality living.
Strokes are a complex condition that can usually be characterized into three types: ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage or subarachnoid hemorrhage. The physical therapists at Pain Physicians NY are specialists who know the difference and will provide individual, comprehensive stroke rehabilitation to restore function. No two patients are alike before a stroke and so no two patients are alike post-stroke, remembering this is key to achieve rehabilitation goals.
Neuromuscular disorders are complex and vast, including Parkinson’s disease, stroke, paraplegia, myotonia, hypertonia and many others. These conditions often come upon quickly and take over a patient’s life, the physical therapists at Pain Physicians NY understand this, with experience and the desire to help restore function and teach independence we work very closely with each patient to achieve the best results.
The use of Kinesis One equipment for medical and rehabilitation purposes is a powerful technique for those who are recovering from injuries or have limited mobility. These single stand-alone units offer a broad range of doctor-approved exercises and routines. Kinesis One not only works efficiently by stabilizing muscles during each movement, but also on the ability to move freely through a full range of motion. Besides balance and flexibility, Kinesis One improves strength and provides a pleasing and effective fitness experience that produces real results.
Mobility is essential for life and ambulation is a vital component of this. Whether it is ambulation, ambulation with an assisted device, ambulation via wheel chair from injury or structurally, our professional physical therapists are up to the task of evaluating deficits and working with patient’s to improve their movement.
Manual physical therapy massage and manual therapy has healing powers that have been used as a source of rehabilitation for hundreds of years.

The physical therapists at Pain Physicians NY are professionals in the art of taping and strapping and use Kinesio tape to help treat sports injuries, prepare athletes for play, prevent injuries from further trauma and speed up healing.
Just because a person cannot see your pain, doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist. We see patients every single day that may look as though there is nothing wrong, but on the inside — in the muscles, bones, and joints — it feels like their body is on fire. If an injury or illness has in some way affected your physical well-being, then partaking in recovery physical therapy at Pain Physicians NY may be the first step on the road to recovery, and they last step won’t be nearly as painful.
We don’t keep our heads buried in papers and forms. We won’t learn everything there is to know about you and your injury by reading through your file and questionnaires. Instead, we will get to know YOU. Although asking you how intense your pain is on a scale of one to ten can be helpful relative to your own recovery, that only tells us a little piece of the puzzle.
There is no cure-all exercise, so how else would we know how to treat you other than understanding your pains. We want to hear from you. You know when and how your body hurts. We want you fully engaged in your physical therapy so that you can internalize the methods and ideas which will in turn keep you healthier and pain-free. And isn’t that precisely the point? Nobody knows how your body feels better than you, we just know how to make it feel better.
The reason we take so much time figuring out precisely where the trouble is, is because we treat the individual, not just the injury or illness. In order to get successful results, physical therapy needs to address any underlying factors that may be contributing to your pain.
We understand the amount of trust and hope you are placing in our hands, and you can be sure that we do not take the responsibility lightly. Our team of professionals have dedicated their lives to helping others lead a pain-free lives. Our physical therapists are not out of touch, and would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
Using the latest techniques and technologies, our professionals are always on their A game and will help you get on yours. Don’t give up on the things you love in life because of your aches and pains. Meet them head-on. It may take some time, dedication and hard work from the team and from you, but together we can set you on the course for a pain-free life.
