Life's too short to spend your days in pain. When an injury or illness leaves you unable to negotiate your way through New York City with your normal speed and agility, S.P.O.R.T. Physiotherapy and Wellness can help.
Our two outpatient clinics, one downtown and one uptown, were founded on our passionate model of care.
We don't make you wait days for an appointment and treat you like a number when you walk in the door. We are totally dedicated to giving you one-on-one attention and effective pain relief with physical therapy.
We know you can't live life on your terms when your back hurts or your joints ache. We offer the latest evidence-based treatments in orthopedic and sports physical therapy as well as a range of programs to deal with and prevent workplace related injuries.
Our name is an acronym for what we represent:
S-ports P-erformance, & O-rthopedic R-ehabilitation T-herapy and not just for athletes.
In New York, average just doesn't cut the mustard. You have many choices, from where to order take-out food, to where to get your favorite bottle of wine.
And we know that you have many choices when it comes to physical therapy providers. That's why we work very hard to earn your trust and your preference.
Through our intense dedication, deep expertise and focused one-on-one treatment, you'll experience something a little different from most busy clinics.
We are a boutique clinic located in a professional and intimate environment with one goal in mind:
Providing unmatched physical therapy care through a principled, evidence-based and pragmatic approach that is centered around the needs of every individual seeking our services.
