— CONDITIONS WE TREAT
Care for every body in Downtown, NY
Beyond Basics has been honored to serve the entire New York community for over two decades, with our Downtown Manhattan location playing a key role in delivering exceptional pelvic floor physical therapy and pelvic pain treatment. While we welcome patients from across the city and beyond, our Downtown office is a cornerstone of our practice and a trusted destination for those in lower Manhattan seeking expert care.
When we first opened our doors, pelvic floor physical therapy was a little-known specialty practiced by only a few clinicians globally—and often in a limited way. Since then, we’ve grown into one of the few practices in the world that bridges the gap between pelvic health and full-body wellness. Our Downtown team is composed of highly trained physical therapists with advanced certifications and extensive experience, allowing us to treat complex cases with confidence and compassion.
We are also proud of our longstanding commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusion. Every individual who seeks care at our Downtown location is welcomed into a respectful, supportive, and affirming environment. Our goal is to ensure that all patients feel safe, heard, and empowered throughout their healing journey.
