What Deer Park Patients Are Saying

Real results from active adults who were tired of living with back pain and ready for a different approach.

The best!! I cannot say enough incredible things about SK. I tried the traditional PT route which did nothing for me. After a month of working together I already felt better and had gained so much confidence in healing from my injury. The steroid injection, MRI was a waste of money. All I needed was smart movement which he taught me. I would 100 percent work with him again in the future.

Dr. Saransh Kapoor is 1 of 1. After a year of debilitating back pain, I finally found not only initial relief through his program, but a solid plan to get pain free. His approach is invaluable. The combination of specialized PT, mindset training, and overall support and accountability truly sets him apart. I am forever grateful for him and his work… to be able to live fully again!!
Kim Kelty
Dr. Saransh is an unbelievable fountain of knowledge. He has a keen way of breaking things down from a science, to layman’s terms so you truly understand, and why he’s doing what he’s doing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your first visit at Movement First PT.

Do I need a referral to start physical therapy in New York?

New York allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can book a free phone consult with Dr. Kapoor without a physician referral. If you do have imaging or prior records you'd like to share, bring them along we find that context helpful during your initial assessment.

How is this different from the PT I already tried?

Most traditional PT clinics rely on cookie-cutter protocols and hand patients off to aides after the first visit. At Movement First, every session is one-on-one with Dr. Kapoor, DPT and we use 3D-powered movement analysis to identify the objective root cause of your pain instead of guessing. The plan we build is designed around your training and your goals, not a generic discharge timeline.

Will I have to stop lifting or training while I'm working with you?

Not necessarily. Our approach is built around keeping you moving as much as safely possible. For most patients, smart, modified training is actually part of the process. We'll work around your schedule and your sport so recovery doesn't mean sitting on the sidelines any longer than necessary.

Why is this cash-based and not covered by insurance?

Being cash-based means we answer to you, not your insurance company. It means Dr. Kapoor can spend a full session with you every single visit, use advanced technology like 3D movement assessment and shockwave therapy, and build a plan based on what your body actually needs not what a billing code allows. Most patients find the outcomes and the attention are worth it.

What happens at my first appointment?

Your first visit starts with a thorough one-on-one conversation about your history, your goals, and what's been holding you back. From there, Dr. Kapoor conducts a comprehensive movement assessment using 3D-powered analysis to identify exactly what's driving your pain. You leave with a clear picture of what's going on and a personalized plan to address it.
