“This is an amazing practice! The physical therapists are very knowledgable, warm, kind, and do everything to make you comfortable. If you are apprehensive about booking for pelvic floor PT, this is the place to go to. I only have experience with Kara and Emma so far, and they are both highly skilled and helpful in alleviating discomfort, and putting you on a path towards healing. In just a few sessions, I am already feeling much better. The entire staff is professional and kind, and I couldn't recommend this practice enough for any pelvic floor issues.”

“Erica and Kara are absolutely awesome. I am doing labor prep and I’m already grateful for the progress. I had a lot of pain in my coccyx and PSD. I am incredibly happy with the results thus far. Thanks so much for taking care of me!”
Veronica

“Ditto to everything everyone has already said here. I’ve been in chronic pain from multiple illnesses for decades and never did pelvic floor pt after prolapse surgery. Just saw Lexi today and she is the best. So comprehensive and I felt a major improvement after just one visit. And they made the process of dealing with my health insurance a breeze.”
Jennifer

“As someone who has suffered from multiple chronic ailments over the last decade and a half, I have visited much more than my share of physical therapists, so when I tell you that the care, service and professionalism of this place is exceptional, you can trust that I am baseing that on years of comparative experience. Claire Hamnett has changed my life; and that is not hyperbole. Chronic pain and pelvic floor dysfunction are debilitating and severely diminish one’s quality of life. In less than one year, Claire has guided me through a transformation that for the first time in nearly 15 years has made a tangible and lasting impact and has improved my condition. She follows up with me regularly, takes detailed notes to document my progress or setbacks, and delivers her expertise with care and empathy. She manages expectations well and sets realistic goals and sets you up for success. The entire staff is kind, caring and professional and Erica and Kara have created an incredibly welcoming environment. They are great partners on one’s journey to healing.”

“From the first phone call to every therapy experience I have been treated with great respect, my questions answered quickly and accurately and with discretion. My complicated medical situation is improving after only 4 sessions. Highly recommend the clinic near Grand Central Station NYC.”

“I am so grateful for Erica and the Solstice Physiotherapy team. I went to Erica for chronic pelvic pain that I was dealing with for 8+ years. I have been seeing Erica now for the last ~1-2 months and have seen a significant difference in my pain level (even in such a short time period). She treats me holistically and even coordinates with multiple doctors to make sure I have a comprehensive treatment care. This level of attention is not something that I have commonly seen (even in NYC). Her warm personality also puts me at ease, and her schedule is accommodating (i.e., early mornings, late nights). I am so thankful for Erica and would highly recommend her and her team to anyone with pelvic pain. She was able to make a difference in my quality of life, and I look forward to my weekly PT sessions.”

“I am so grateful for Erica and Kara and the entire team at Solstice! I saw Erica and Kara for chronic pelvic pain and they have been nothing less than awesome. The most important factor is that I am recovering thanks to their hard work and expertise. You can trust this team! To make matters better, they are awesome company which means a lot in PT.”
Sam

“I cannot recommend this place enough. Not only are the therapists extremely knowledgeable and kind, but the facility is very welcoming as well. I have since recommended Solstice Physiotherapy to my closest friends and feel that anyone recovering postpartum should make themselves an appointment for a stronger and healthier transition into motherhood.”
Jessica

“I had seen multiple physicians before I was referred to and properly diagnosed at Solstice Physiotherapy. The staff was professional and the office was impeccable. I highly recommend Solstice Physiotherapy.”
Elle

“Kara is amazing! I experienced significant pelvic pain during pregnancy and did not know why. Doctors ignored my pain and said it was just part of pregnancy. Many months postpartum I was still experiencing pelvic pain. I did not want to ask the same doctors for help figuring I would be ignored. When I went to see Kara I told her all of my symptoms. Upon examining me, she explained that my pelvic muscles went into a tight spasm during pregnancy and never released. It was finally an answer to all of my symptoms. She used her expertise to help guide a treatment plan. After a few in person sessions and doing follow up exercises at home (instructed by Kara) , I was feeling the best I had felt in a year! I am so grateful for all of her help and do not know where I would be without her help! If you or someone you know if having pelvic pain during pregnancy and/or postpartum be sure to go see Kara!”
Jessica

“I agree with all of the amazing things other people are saying on here about solstice. Lexi and Erica are terrific. I had pelvic pain for 10-15 years and they’ve put me back together. It’s amazing to go through life without pain. I highly recommend them.”
Ken

“Lexi is amazing! She makes me feel so comfortable throughout every one of my sessions. Lexi is knowledgeable, informative, and demonstrates a real passion for her work. I would definitely recommend Solstice Physiotherapy to anyone in need of these services!”
Melissa

“Erica has absolutely changed my life! Before seeing her I was in pain and hopeless. She has helped me in such a short amount of time, not only with physical therapy but also by coordinating with other providers to treat contributing factors to my pain. Thanks to Erica I finally feel that I have control over my pelvic pain and that I will lead a pain free life!”
Liz

“Solstice is amazing! I am forever grateful to Lexi, who was my pelvic floor therapist. I saw her for chronic pelvic pain that I never imagined could get better and wish I had gone in to see her sooner. If you’re reading this and are contemplating on going, just DO IT! Ask for Lexi! Don’t let fear and pain take over your life like I did for so long.”
Han

“I saw Kara. Cannot say enough about how wonderful she is. Took a thorough history asked me many questions and explained in detail what is causing my discomfort. She gave me an extremely thorough exam which was pain-free and I felt very confident that she was going to come up with the right plan for me. Put me at ease from the moment I met her. Left her office feeling confident that she will help me get my discomfort under control. Other doctors I saw said that there seemed to be nothing wrong with me physically. I came to understand that that was because they are not trained in pelvic dysfunction issues. I highly suggest going to a Solstice where they are specifically trained to deal with pelvic issues.”
Susan

“Erica and Kara are the absolute best pelvic floor physical therapist ever. Not only have they helped my pelvic pain tremendously, but they are the most compassionate, thoughtful, and empathetic practitioners. If you have any type of pelvic pain, please see one of them. I promise, they will help you in miraculous ways.”
Hannah

“Kara and Erica have always been highly recommended in the past. I couldn’t agree more. I have been through many pelvic pt’s in the past and consider Kara to be one of the best I’ve seen if not the best pelvic physical therapist to help with my pelvic pain thus far. She is also extremely lovely and has a wonderful bedside manner. She genuinely cares about her patients and I can not be happier to have found her. I’ll be sticking with Kara and Erica wherever they go.”
Julie

“Erica and Kara are very knowledgeable and caring professionals. Their friendly and upbeat demeanors put their patients at ease, even when it comes to intimate health issues. They provide concrete "action plans" to support patients at every stage of therapy. Both Erica and Kara are excellent listeners and communicators. Also, they collaborate very well with one another. Pelvic Floor Therapy has made a HUGE impact on my body and my life -- I can't recommend their services enough.”
RB

“Erica is a wonderful physical therapist who is extremely knowledgeable and very up to date on her research/training. I have seen DRASTIC improvements. Erica has the best bedside manner, and I always feel extremely comfortable during our sessions. This place has really made a huge impact on my life.”
Danielle

“I worked with both Kara and Erica over the course of one year and they are incredible physical therapists who run a very holistic and inclusive practice. They are extremely kind individuals and really prioritize your comfort. I highly recommend Solstice!”
Shriya

“Erica's highly empathetic and warm! She gave me a proper diagnosis and made me feel optimistic about my situation. She genuinely cares about the wellbeing of each and every patient. I have been to other PT centers that don't even compare to the way that Solstice operates.”
Sara

“I can’t say enough great things about Kara at Solstice Physiotherapy! In a very short time I’ve started to see huge improvement. She makes you feel very comfortable and has extensive knowledge, making me feel extremely confident in the care I’m receiving. I know I’m in great hands! Highly recommend!”
Gabrielle

“A truly incredible team. I was amazed to discover my insurance covered pelvic PT, so I went to address a few pregnancy symptoms and to help prepare my body for labor. My (induced) labor and recovery were both exceptional, and I know it’s in large part thanks to the stretching work I did with Erica and Lexi. Can’t thank them enough.”
Katherine

”I’ve had a fantastic experience working with Lexi at Solstice PT throughout the end of my pregnancy. She has been very attentive to my needs, professional, and evidenced based! I look forward to working with her postpartum and I highly recommend this practice!”
Mary

“I have nothing but great things to say about Kara & Erica at Solstice! I’m in the last trimester of my pregnancy and I made an appointment with Kara last week because I had been having severe lower back pain for almost 2 weeks – to the point where it was painful to walk. As soon as I came in and described what had been going on, Kara listened intently and almost immediately (with a few tests) figured out where my pain was stemming from. She made sure I was comfortable with the tests and exercises she was showing me, she asked me how I felt every step along the way, and most importantly she helped me feel so much better! Kara emailed me a plan as soon as I left the appointment with the exercises we had practiced along with directions and pictures to make them easy for me to remember and follow. It’s now been a little less than a week since I came to see Kara and I’m continuing to feel better and stronger every day! I wish I had gone to see her sooner! These two women are miracle workers!”
Roma

“Kara at Solstice PT is fantastic. She is patient, thorough, gentle, compassionate and efficient. She recommended me to the best specialist to give me a proper diagnosis. She also explains in a very clear and simplified way the muscular patterns which helps in the healing process. Very strongly recommended!”

“Receiving the time and personal attention I needed to address my postnatal issue was important to me, and I received exactly that at Solstice! I am happy so far with the personalized approach Kara has taken and look forward to continuing my work with her.”
