If you are looking for physical therapy in Manhattan, I cannot recommend the team at NYU Physical Therapy on 55th Street, just off Fifth and Park, enough. I came in on my first day crying, in so much pain from surgical injuries and complications that simply walking there and even opening their glass front doors was too hard, and I have come a long way since, thanks to the care I received here. Megan, my physical therapist, is extraordinary. The pelvic floor and gastric motility work she has done with me has genuinely helped my healing, but beyond her skill, she made me feel seen, safe and cared for at a time when I needed that more than I can say. She created a space where I felt safe. Her associate Alyssa is equally lovely, and even the front desk feels like part of the team. Michelle is warm and kind (and has wonderful taste in glasses), and everyone here, right down to the person who helps me into the office, treats you with genuine kindness. You can tell when a place is built on real care rather than routine, and this is one of those places. I am grateful to all of them. I thoroughly enjoy coming and having physical therapy. Even though I know I have a lot more healing to do, I am grateful for all of their help on my healing journey. Thank you for helping me heal.
