The PhysioLab NYC

"I came to the PhysioLab on the recommendation of a strength training coach, and it has been a transformative experience. I had shoulder and back injuries from barbell movements, and I was legitimately scared I would never be able to lift heavy weights again. Fast forward, and I am the strongest I have *ever* been (I even competed in my first powerlifting meet recently!). The physical therapists at the Lab -- I have been lucky enough to work with all 3 of them -- absolutely prioritize getting you back to the activities you love. Not only did Chloe and Tessia provide manual therapy and targeted exercises to relieve my pain, as barbell athletes (and certified coaches themselves!) they were able to provide feedback on my lifting technique to resolve the underlying issues contributing to my pain. A typical session might look like bodywork, a few rehab or prehab exercises, and heavy squats. How many PT practices get you under a barbell?! I actually looked forward to our sessions, and I really feel like they have equipped me with the tools to take control of my physical health. I also separately had worked with Iris, the pelvic floor therapist, at her previous job and received excellent care. I had issues with urinary leakage during jumping/HIIT/running and heavy deadlifts, and my sports medicine doctor thought my back pain might be related to pelvic floor issues. Iris shares Chloe's and Tessia's philosophy of empowering their patients to manage their own health, and she taught me how to breathe and brace properly, how and when to relax and/or strengthen my pelvic floor, and how to perform manual therapy on myself. I was very excited when Iris joined the PhysioLab! What I really appreciate about all of the PhysioLab therapists is that they *want* you to graduate from physical therapy. Thanks to this team, I can lift heavy weight with confidence, pain- and pee-free!"

"The Physio Lab team is absolutely amazing, and the single best thing that I've done for my ACL recovery. I've been seeing Tessia and Chloe since August of 2023, for prehab, and then rehab for an ACL, MCL and meniscus. They are incredibly kind, well versed and motivating! Can't imagine where I would be without them!"

"Tessia is a wonderful physical therapist; She’s kind, patient, and funny. During each session, she explains why you’re doing certain exercises and how it helps on your recovery. And of course, my sprained ankle is much better!!"

"Chloe and the team at the Lab are excellent! Their approach to PT and strength training is best in class- the team is extremely focused and diligent and always ontop of the latest treatment and training methods. They truly do everything they can to solve for pain and show you how to prevent future injury, always with a focus on longterm function. Truly all star practice, highly reccommend!"

"Great small class training and physical therapy. I've been training at that lab for about 2 years. The small group classes are the best kept gym secret in NYC. If you want to learn power and olympic lifts in a super low key, fun atmosphere, this is your place. Chole and Tessia are not just awesome teachers and lifting competitors, but also have helped me with a wide range of PT needs. I can't recommend highly enough."
