Balance in Motion Physical Therapy

I live a very active lifestyle, and every now and then I end up pushing my body a bit too far—whether it’s a torn muscle or general overuse. For the past three years, this facility has been my go-to for recovery, and I truly wouldn’t trust anyone else. Dr. Daeseon Kim has an incredible gift—he’s professional, kind, humble, and has what I can only describe as a magic touch. Every visit begins with a thoughtful consultation, and he always provides the most effective exercises to target and heal the issue. The entire staff is attentive, caring, and makes you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. The environment is warm, supportive, and focused on helping you feel your best. Without a doubt, this is the best physical therapy clinic in NYC. Highly recommend!

Thanks to Balance in Motion I was able to hike and rock climb in Sedona

This place literally changed my life 🥹 been suffering from chronic knee pain since an accident in 2018. I started PT in 2025. Within the first session, Dr. Kim diagnosed the root cause of my knee pain (overpronation in my ankle). He prescribed me different exercises every time I saw him that were actually useful and relieved pain. I’ve been to a few other PTs and they gave me exercises to strengthen my knee instead of addressing the root cause. It’s been a month of going twice a week and I have been able to run 4 miles without pain for the first time in 7 years. My leg muscles have also balanced out. Even with regular weightlifting, I was not able to balance the muscle mass in my legs until I started PT I’ve been recommending this place to all my coworkers because I’m so happy with my results.

If you’re struggling with persistent pain and feeling stuck with no progress, Balance in Motion could be the game-changer you need 💪 I had been dealing with knee pain for two months when I decided to try Balance in Motion since it’s close to my office. From my very first visit, I noticed a significant difference compared to my previous physical therapy experience. Dr. Daeseon Kim stands out for his attentive and personalized approach. Unlike my previous physical therapist, who followed a standard routine, Dr. Kim carefully observed my movements and listened patiently as I described my pain — even when I struggled to explain it clearly. He tailored exercises specifically to improve my posture. One day, we had a breakthrough. Dr. Kim noticed a subtle difference between my left and right side during a particular movement. With that sharp observation, he identified the root cause of my pain: a muscle imbalance caused by one part of my quadriceps being stronger than the others. He then crafted a custom exercise to activate and strengthen the weaker muscles. I felt stronger almost immediately, and my pain improved significantly. Beyond his expertise, Dr. Kim takes the time to explain the underlying mechanics of the issue and how each exercise addresses it, which I found incredibly helpful. In addition to physical therapy, Balance in Motion offers acupuncture for pain management and chiropractic care. Dr. B is thoughtful and gentle, ensuring you’re comfortable and relaxed throughout the acupuncture process — even for someone like me who’s afraid of needles! The chiropractic team is also fantastic, and you’re treated to a relaxing massage at the end of your session. I’m incredibly grateful for the care I’ve received here and highly recommend Balance in Motion to anyone seeking effective, personalized treatment🙏
