Colder weather means some changes to how we exercise. Of course it’s harder to motivate yourself to get outside for a run or bike ride when the temperature drops, and the shorter days compress our schedules, but there are changes in your body that affect your ability to exercise too. For many people with arthritis…

One of my good friends introduced me to Body Harmony after her own successful experience, and I could have not been happier! The process to start therapy was quiet easy as the staff are very helpful and responsive. Most importantly, the therapist that I have been seeing for four months now, Isha Mody, is exceptionally knowledgable, professional, respectful and genuinely a caring provider. Isha went above and beyond to ensure that the source of my pain is correctly identified and then began to instruct me to make practical changes in my habits and use correct stretches to relive and eliminate pain. I am very pleased with the care that I have been receiving from Body Harmony and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a great physical therapy provider

I had one-on-one therapy with my therapist for a male pelvic floor issue. My therapy lasted about 3 months. My therapist was very professional, answering my questions and providing explanations that were clear and thorough. The facility was clean and sessions were conducted in a private room. I would recommend this practice for anyone experiencing a pelvic floorissue.

If there’s one thing I actually looked forward to postpartum, it’s every PT session I attended at Body Harmony with Cheyenne. I thought my postpartum body was my forever body but investing in PT made me realize that anything can be repaired with proper breathing, form and consistency. All things that can easily overlooked when thrown into the chaos of motherhood!Body Harmony was very professional, highly educational and I would even say ESSENTIAL after a long painful pregnancy and labor journey. I’m excited to get back into running thanks to the program Cheyenne had created for me. Front desk was also super nice and welcoming.Surprised there aren’t any more reviews of this place - it was a godsend. I went from feeling like a floppy noodle on Day 1 to getting my core back and into my regular workout routine 15 weeks after. Definitely worth the investment. Thank you!!

Body harmony PT studio is a hidden gem inside of the iconic Woolworth building. I am so great full that my medical provider listed them among recommended practices for my therapy needs. To start they got me in for my initial evaluation for pelvic floor treatment on the same day right after I left my provider with the referral. They continue to be accommodating to my scheduling needs and always welcome me with such kindness and a smile. I see Dr. Rosanne and only have the great things to say about her. Shes a veteran in her feild of pelvic floor therapy and it really shows with her breadth of knowledge and understanding of the body. She’s very warm, caring, sensitive and all around such a great therapist and human. She knows how to put you at ease and treats you like family as does the entire practice. I highly recommend BHPT and it’s so worth making the trip from Staten Island.

Words really cannot express how grateful I am for the amazing care that I've gotten from all of the kind and knowledgeable PTs at Body Harmony and especially from my primary PT Roseanne. Before I started treatment I was in so much pain, was limited in my daily activities and felt hopeless and defeated- in fact I was told by several doctors that surgery was my only option. I've now have regained my quality of life, resumed my previous level of activity and live almost pain-free- and without surgery. She's also taught me strategies and a home exercise program so that I can continue to manage independently. My experience here has been life-changing.

Dani has changed my life. I came in with severe pelvic floor dysfunction and through my work with Dani, I have fully recovered! I can now live my life in peace, without having to work around my symptoms. She is so knowledgable and takes time to educate you on the ways your body functions so that you can improve your health and wellbeing. I felt seen, heard, and cared for in her office, and I can't recommend her enough! She not only treated the pelvic dysfunction, but helped me to see my body as the integrated being that it is. Thank you for everything, Dani!

Prior to our initial session at Body Harmony, we were very unaware of what Pelvic Floor Therapy was, rather it was something highly recommended by our midwives after a traumatic birthing experience.Thanks to the team here, from the secretary who greets you by name, to my amazing therapist Isha, my husband and I have learned so much! We leave every session feeling confident and knowledgeable of the progress we’ve made and the progress to come. I’d recommend Body Harmony to EVERYONE, Im now a fierce Pelvic Floor therapy advocate!
