Spear Physical And Occupational Therapy, Llc

I had a wonderful experience at Spear Physical Therapy's East 84th Street location during my pregnancy and postpartum. I worked with Kirstan Law on pelvic floor PT in preparation for birth, and she kept me feeling strong and as pain-free as possible throughout my pregnancy. My mantra was "we are not waddling" - and I didn't! Kirstan was compassionate, a great patient teacher, and had such wonderful energy. I also felt very prepared for labor and delivery when the time came. I ended up needing an unplanned c-section for delivery, and postpartum I worked primarily with Kavya Mohandas, who was also wonderful! She heard me when I said I was determined to run long distances again and she continually challenged me so I could heal and meet my goal safely (and yes I did run a half marathon 20 minutes faster than anticipated just under 9 months postpartum). Kavya was so kind and knowledgeable and she made our sessions fun. You'd be lucky to work with either of them!

Having had two very negative experiences at another PT company, I came into Spear with a poor attitude toward pt in general. This was turned around on the first day with the pleasant, professional experience I had with the staff and especially with my therapist Kavya. This positive attitude only got better during the six weeks of therapy. I highly recommend the spear on East 84th St in NYC.
