The goal of Physical Therapy is to make your daily tasks and activities easier. For example, we may help you walk, get dressed, go upstairs, sleep better, or get in and out of bed. If you are struggling with normal daily tasks or an injury that is preventing you from living your best life, we want to provide you with relief and teach you techniques to prevent re-injury and avoid pain in the future.
Physical therapy is highly effective in relieving the pain, making it hard to move around and do everyday tasks. Our Brooklyn physical therapy treatments help you move better and relieve your pain. They also help improve or restore your physical function and your fitness level. Some of our treatment-based services include the following:
Our focus is not just on helping you recover from back pain, but also creating a back physical therapy approach that helps you avoid injuries and pain in the future.
We focus on relieving the neck pain and stiffness. Your individual treatment plan may use massage, modalities, state-of-the-art equipment, or gentle movements and exercise.
Sciatica pain comes from a nerve that runs down your lower back into your thigh and leg. Physical therapy can provide effective treatment for the sciatic nerve pain and its symptoms.
Physical therapy exercises for knee pain and hands-on treatment techniques can help relieve suffering and improve your range of motion and enjoyment of activities again.

I have been seeing Dr. Banu for my upper back pain and she has been incredible! From the very first session, she took the time to understand my concerns and developed a treatment plan that has already made a noticeable difference which also helped me learn about physical therapy as I am working towards becoming one. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive, always ensuring that I’m comfortable, not feeling a whole lot of pain and making progress.
I’ve also had the opportunity to work as her physical therapy aide for the past two weeks. While she is an amazing PT, she is also the best teacher and I thank her for continuing to help me reach my goal of becoming a PT one day.
Dr Kapadia and the PT team are really wonderful and so friendly. I appreciate that each session incorporates both exercises for strengthening and heat/electro therapy. If you’re in need of physical therapy, I wholly recommend them!
Saleha is so great! Deeply knowledgeable and clear in talking me through my injury while also being a kind listener and supportive physical therapist. She's done a great job of adapting my PT routines to how I'm feeling, making sure I'm striking the balance of building strength without pushing too hard. My shoulder mobility has made strides after a few weeks of care.
Great experience with Downtown Physicians and Physical Therapists NYC. Dr Hetarth Kapadia is a great physical therapist, very down to earth and attentive to my needs. Lauren and the company in the physician’s department is equally kind. Been going for a few weeks and already improving! Highly recommend!
The physical therapist Ms.Banu was excellent, very attentive, and push you to get back to 100%..I recommend anyone that needs rehab to sign up with downtown physicians (park slope) and request for ms Banu
Dr. Kapadia and his team are amazing. He’s thorough and comprehensive but also makes physical therapy sessions enjoyable and fun. Highly recommend
I came here for a herniated disc and Saleha Banu, PT has been incredibly instrumental to my recovery. I’ve been to other physical therapists who are either overburdened with too many patients or lack the skills to truly aid me in recovery. This was so far from my experience with Ms. Banu. She is incredible with her patients: attentive, extremely knowledgeable, professional, kind, and very hands on with exercise adjustments. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to any and everyone serious about their rehabilitation.
Dr. Hetarth is a really great professional. He treats patients with kindness and is always willing to explain and help. Coming to physical therapy can often be difficult, especially if you have to do it several times a week or have to commute, but he and his team — including Ilir — make it worth it. He is the best!
Dr. Banu is one of the best physical therapists out there! She’s incredibly kind and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you meet her. Her positivity and optimism are contagious, which is motivating during recovery. She truly hears you and adjusts treatments to fit your needs. You can tell she knows her stuff, and she explains things in a way that’s easy to understand. Dr. Banu is caring, encouraging, and genuinely invested in helping you succeed. I can’t recommend her enough!
this is the absolute BEST physical therapy practice i’ve visited. i’ve been coming to dr. kapadia for several months now and he is an excellent doctor who has helped me make notable progress treating back and hip pain.
this henry street location is clean, well staffed, and incredibly friendly!
12/10 recommend!!! i’ll continue coming here for all pain and sports medicine needs.
I cannot recommend Dr Banu highly enough! From my very first session, it was clear that she is not just an excellent physical therapist, but also a true advocate for her patients. Her approach is incredibly client-centered, ensuring that every aspect of my treatment plan was tailored to my individual needs, goals, and limitations.
Dr Banu takes the time to truly listen, making me feel heard and understood at every step of the process. She not only addresses the physical aspects of recovery but also considers how pain and injury impact daily lives. Her ability to balance empathy with professionalism is remarkable, and she creates a welcoming, supportive environment where I feel empowered to push through challenges.
What sets her apart is her thorough attention to detail. She consistently monitors progress, adjusts techniques when necessary, and takes the time to explain why each exercise or treatment is beneficial. This not only builds trust but also gave me confidence in my ability to recover.
If you’re looking for a physical therapist who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and fully invested in your well-being, in addition to good conversations she’s the one! 😀
We take pride in being able to treat our patients for all types of pain. Our patients travel from all over Brooklyn to visit our state-of-the-art pain relief center because they know that we understand the recovery process from A to Z.
Our equipment and pain management techniques are totally holistic and patient centric. We know and understand the difficult process of recovery after an accident, we work with athletes in sports therapy to help recover from injuries and our vestibular rehabilitation program is one of the best in the city.
Dr Karpadia it’s very knowledgeable and always has great suggestions on how to do exercise exercises and other things to help your pain. Drupa, his assistant is amazing with detailed instruction and explanation of exercise and is always there to correct your form so you can do the exercises with no pain. I love this Physical Therapy place because it’s more like a family atmosphere than a PT factory which there are many in Brooklyn here you get better at personalized detention in my opinion.
