Midtown East and Murray Hill
Why Midtown East and Murray Hill patients choose video.
Midtown is where New York works, and long days at a desk show up in the body: neck and back pain, pelvic pain that gets worse with sitting, urgency that makes back-to-back meetings hard. A 45-minute video visit fits into a lunch hour with no cab ride.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in New York: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.

Questions
Questions from Midtown East and Murray Hill
Can I do a visit from my office?
Yes, from any private room with a door that closes. Some exercises need floor space, so home is easiest for the first visit.
Is pelvic pain that gets worse with sitting a reason to see a pelvic floor physical therapist?
It is a common one. The evaluation looks at muscle tension, posture, breathing and daily habits, and the plan is built around the workday.
How soon can I be seen?
Usually within a week. Early morning, evening and weekend video visits are available.
