Ming Chew, PT

Physical therapy on the Upper West Side isn’t just about post-injury recovery—it’s often the quiet maintenance that keeps dancers, runners, and desk workers moving without interruption. Ming Chew, PT operates in that space, offering a no-frills approach to mobility and pain management. Unlike larger clinics that cycle through patients on tight schedules, this practice keeps its focus narrow, addressing everything from chronic back tension to post-surgical rehab. The address at 23 W 73rd St, New York, NY 10023 places it among the pre-war buildings and low-key storefronts that define the neighborhood’s rhythm.

The work here centers on manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and those stubborn issues that resist generic stretches or foam rolling. There’s no emphasis on flashy equipment or trendy recovery gadgets—just the fundamentals of assessing movement patterns and correcting imbalances. Patients who’ve cycled through quick-fix solutions elsewhere sometimes end up here, where the priority is consistency over instant results. It’s the kind of place that assumes you’ve already tried the obvious fixes and need something more precise.

Questions about availability or specific concerns are best directed to their line at (212) 877-5028.
