I you are looking for a PT mill or factory, this is not it. Therapy with Divya is personal, just you and her. She listens, examines, choose the right exercises, changes them as needed, and stays with you the entire time. The studio is calm, peaceful and beautiful. highly recommended.
Divya is knowledgeable, confidence inspiring, down to earth and easy to talk to and trust. She is creative in her approach and individualizes treatment for each patient. Naledi is not your typical physical therapy mill.
If you are looking for a thoughtful approach when working with a physical therapist, chose this practice. The care I had was careful and consistent and led to good results. I always had good attention from this knowledgeable provider.
My sessions with Dr. Rajaraman have already helped improve my neck mobility and to strengthen my shoulders. She has a very kind and confident manner and she has been very conscious of any pain I may be having from doing the reps. Her home exercise program has been helpful and easy to access.
Skilled, experienced, discreet, caring and creative practitioner. Lovely private studio. Has been very helpful to me with a variety of physical challenges. Highly recommend.
Dr. Divya Rajaraman is a very kind, professional, and skilled Physical Therapist. I have been very pleased with her ability to tailor exercises for my specific needs of balance and for increasing my strength. She also sends me pictures and descriptions of these exercises for me to practice at home between visits. She listens carefully to my concerns, and is careful to give me a program that I am able to do without hurting myself. I have been extremely pleased and while I am seeing her I hope to continue to make progress.
What doe this question mean?
I have seen Divya several times and each time she has fixed me up: she has worked on my posture, balance, and upper body strength. I have felt physically improved and energized after our work together. She is kind, knowledgeable and skilled. In my opinion, from my experience, she is the best.
Dr Rajaraman is a wonderful physical therapist. She is thoughtful, thorough, caring and listens carefully to your concerns. She is extremely knowledgeable about the body and the mind and seeks to develop the right care plan that will work just for you. I have worked with Dr Rajaraman for more than a year and have achieved much in a relatively short period of time. Her treatment space is amazing. It’s a special space that provides a sense of retreat that grounds you in your body and mind to work towards healing and health. Moreover her guidance and support during sessions and with in between homework, sets you up for the life I want to live as I continue to age. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
I have been a patient of Dr. Rajaraman’s for over a year. She played a major role in helping me recover after a long hospitalization, and has continued to help me maintain my physical health and stamina. Dr. Rajaraman seamlessly integrates yoga and Pilates techniques with Physical Therapy to help with balance, flexibility, and core strength. I have the highest regard for Dr. Rajaraman, both personally and professional
I can not say enough positive things about Divya and her practice. I have had many PT experiences. This was by far the most thoughtful analysis of my issue. Divya also provided effective exercises for my injury. Instead of just the throwing some one size fits all routine at me she really tried to understand the source of the injury and discomfort I was experiencing. The exercises were very specific to me-my injury and my abilities.
I was in a course of physical therapy with Divya Rajaraman after surgery to replace a hip. The therapy returned me to full use--no pain, no limp. I am better than I was before. Stronger and more flexible. I was able to do a full summer of hiking at the daycamp where I am director of the hiking program.
Divya listens keenly to what i say about the pain and designs exercises just for me that are effective! She is a rare professional who really cares sbit my progress.
Divya is empathetic and an excellent diagnostician. I have required physical therapy several times in the past few years for walking-related injuries, and she has made it possible for me to recover and walk pain-free each time. Everyone I have referred to Divya is equally enthusiastic about her work.
Helped me through preparation for both hip replacements. Helped me physically and spiritually to get back on my feet. Very prompt and knowledgeable. and helpful.
My visit was very helpful. Had evaluation done. Felt extremely good and comfortable with info from my valuation. The treatment was helpful & stress free. Divya was extrely patient, knowledgable & highly professional. Would highly recommend her to other patients.
Divya was wonderful! She’s a great listener and makes excellent treatment plans. She really understands the body as a whole and never uses cookie cutter exercises to address the one troubling joint. After about 8 sessions (and doing all the home exercises she carefully prescribed) I was fully recovered!
Dr Rajaraman is friendly and caring while maintaining a professional manner. She focuses on you and creates an exercise program specific to your needs. This is nothing like the chain PTs that are ubiquitous now. The treatment is very individualized in a pleasant atmosphere. My previous PT, who is partially retired, recommended this practice.
Divya Rajaraman gives full attention to my issues, demonstrates how I can address each one, and creates a personal plan that I use daily. I can hear her voice and see her expressions and demonstrations when I am practicing at home. I'm on my feet -- not in bed -- so I am fortunately not experiencing her bedside manner, but I can vouch for her concentration, planning and pleasant manner.
