Healthy Movement Physical Therapy

✨️✨️Attention School Teachers, Union Workers, NY State Employees and their families.✨️✨️

If you’ve been dealing with pain, tension, mobility issues or just not feeling like yourself in your body…
you don’t have to keep pushing through it.

At Healthy Movement Physical Therapy, our care is different.

You’re not rushed.
You’re not one of many patients at the same time. Your not seen by other providers who is not your doctor of physical therapy and we get to the root issue of your problem.

Each session is fully one-on-one, focused on understanding how your body and nervous system are working together—so we can support real, lasting change and not just a temporary fix.

This approach is especially helpful if you’ve:

• tried traditional PT but didn’t get lasting results
• feel tight, tense, or “off” without a clear reason
• want a more personalized, whole-body approach
• want to be seen, heard, and supported

And if you have out-of-network benefits (like NYSHIP/Empire Plan or MagnaCare),
you may be able to receive reimbursement for your care. We also accept health care spending accounts and flexible spending accounts for your services.

We have recently expanded hours to better support our community,
and we are currently accepting new clients who are looking for more and needing a change from the standard of care.

👉 If this resonates with you, you can message me directly or reach out to schedule an appointment.

You deserve to be supported and confident in your body again.

Most people think of isometrics as just “holding a position”…
but when you pair them with your vestibular system, it becomes something much more powerful.

This is where strength meets your sense of balance and safety.

When you hold a position—like a split stance, wall sit, or gentle pressing against your hand and begin to challenge your balance or head position,
you’re not just working muscles…

You’re teaching your brain how to feel steady and safe.

Your vestibular system (your inner balance system) is constantly asking:
“Am I safe here?”

Isometrics give it time to process, adapt, and respond—
without the overwhelm of fast movement.

Over time, this can help you:

• feel more stable on your feet
• improve balance and coordination
• reduce that sense of dizziness or uneasiness
• move with more confidence and control

It’s not about pushing harder.
It’s about creating a space where your body can learn, organize, and trust itself again.

Sometimes the most powerful changes happen in the moments that look the simplest.

✨️Most people think isometric exercises are just about “holding still”…
like pressing into your hand, sitting in a wall sit, or pushing into a wall.

But there’s actually a lot happening beneath the surface.

When you do isometrics, you’re not just working your muscles—you’re training your nervous system. 🧠

Your brain is learning how to turn muscles on more fully and more efficiently.
So over time, you’re able to create more strength without necessarily doing more.

The communication between your brain and your muscles becomes smoother and faster,
which is why movements can start to feel more controlled… and less shaky.

Inside the muscle, things begin to coordinate better too.
That “wobbly” or unstable feeling under load often starts to settle.

At the same time, your body gets better at creating stability around your joints,
so you feel more supported, more grounded, and safer in your movement.

And something many people don’t realize—
in certain cases, these types of exercises can actually help calm pain signals,
especially in tendons and joints.

So even though it may look like you’re not moving much,
your body is doing a lot of meaningful work.

This is the kind of training that builds strength, stability, and resilience from the inside out.💪✨️

Not all pain starts in the muscles and joints but how about consider that it can be a poor output of your nervous system. There is a difference.

This is why we do what we do!! Starts in the brain and not just in the muscles 💪 🧠🕊

"Last year, my husband had a stroke following major surgery. As a result, he experienced a number of problems, including partial loss of peripheral vision, motion sickness, unsteady gait, and vestibular issues. As a firm believer that the body has the capacity to recover given the right conditions, I conducted in-depth research on ways to optimise brain function and came across Neurotraining, an approach that seemed to be achieving impressive results. I booked an appointment with Dr. Marlene. After conducting a thorough assessment, she created a specific neurotraining protocol of simple exercises tailored specifically to my husband’s needs and recommended that he do them twice daily.
My husband did the exercises religiously every day (although we did not always manage them twice a day). Each week, we met with Dr. Marlene, and his exercise protcol was adapted according to his progress. After just six weeks on the protocol, the results were remarkable: the motion sickness disappeared completely; his balance and gait improved; his walking became far more confident and steady; and, most incredibly, his peripheral vision began to recover, which was extremely encouraging and has motivated him to continue with his exercises. Not only does Dr. Marlene have significant experience and a depth of knowledge in the field of neurology, but she is also deeply passionate and caring about helping her clients on their path to recovery. We are deeply grateful to have found such a wonderful therapist to work with. Thank you Dr Marlene. x"
