Dr. Lanie is great. They've got a small space in Midtown, but it feels very cozy. She and her office manager do everything to make you feel at home, they're honest, and they really do wanna help you out. I can highly recommend her! I came for PT after a broken ankle.
Verified patient
Nice PT but no doctor was available to prescribe any meds. This made me feel like there was never a plan to deal with pain to begin with. The rest of the visit was nice but not effective.

Verified patient
She was very helpful and very caring. Listened to all the concerns and took things at the pace I wanted. She also never forced me to keep coming which I really appreciated. Her main concern was for my well being. Would highly recommend!
Verified patient
As someone who has needed much physical therapy throughout the years, I can say without a doubt that Lanie is a godsend. There was almost no wait time and the same day I came in with a back injury so severe I could barely walk, I started physical therapy with her. And I never feel rushed through sessions like I have at other facilities. Lanie is the sweetest human and the most talented physical therapist; she’s worked absolute magic on me!
Verified patient
Lanie is great! She’s very patient, great listener, attentive and knowledgeable with detailed programs to how to get you back to full health. I had back issues that have fully gone away because of my sessions with Lanie. Don’t hesitate to book with her!
Verified patient
Lanie was very professional, thorough, and very kind during our appointment! She asked many questions so that she could fully understand my issue and recommended physical therapy to help (she did say I could do at home exercises but I opted for in-office PT)- I’ll be coming to Lanie for the next few weeks to sort out my tense neck and shoulders!
Verified patient
Lanie is professional and cares about her patients. She listens and addresses each issue. Every time I've walked out feeling better than when I walked in. Lanie is the best!
Verified patient
Lanie is terrific. She individualizes each session to my pain and after a few weeks I am pain free from sciatica. I continue to work with Lanie to strengthen my core and back. She is personable, professional and prompt. I highly recommend Lanie.
Verified patient
Lanie is the best! I've had persistent back pain for the last few years due to a few slipped discs. I tried physical therapy with a different physical therapist, and I never really recovered. I decided to give physical therapy another shot a few months ago, and I'm very glad I did. I went to Lanie twice a few for may 4-5 weeks, and now may back feels great all due to her great work!
Verified patient
I had a great experience for my therapy with Lanie. She is professional and friendly. She was willing to let me ask her questions and answered my question patiently. She also taught me how to exercise during the work time to help me reduce my pain, which was really helpful and effective.
Verified patient
Lanie is amazing! It's so nice to be treated by someone experienced, intuitive, and caring. Lanie really takes her time to exam, treat and explain things. Never rushes me out. The appointment time is always longer than I expected which is great! My neck and shoulder are much better now after a couple of PT sessions. The facility is super clean and well organized. The staff here; Andrew and Laura are all very professional and friendly. I always feel very well looked after here. I wouldn't trust anybody else with my neck and shoulders! Highly recommended- two thumbs up!
Lanie was incredible! I appreciated her taking the time to really listen to my concerns and setting a pace that was appropriate for my current state. She gave exercises that promoted strength while also acknowledging that I have limits and reassuring me to take it slow! Overall, great visit from start with Andrew walking me through the administrative process to finish with Lanie emailing me with a few follow up items I asked about! Looking forward to my next appointment...tomorrow - yes it was that good and great location, blocks from my office!
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable. Kind and courteous personality. Helped with my recovery from my partially torn ankle. Went through routine stretches and massages to help with strength and blood flow, and reduce pain. Would definitely recommend.
Verified patient
Lanie was great! She provided excellent service and was very thorough with the procedures. She guided me with every excercise and assisted me on the tough ones. I highly recommend her to anyone needing physical therapy
Verified patient
I’ve been in PT with Lanie since my ACL surgery in December and have been getting better since. I was very nervous about the process, but Lanie is always patient, explains everything, and makes sure I’m not over exerting myself. I truly feel like I’ll heal as best as I can through continuing PT with Lanie! I’d absukteky recommend.
She’s awesome! In 3 sessions had my lower back and legs feeling great. Clean office and everyone there is great especially Lanie!
Verified patient
The office was helpful, direct, and orderly. The staff helped navigate insurance questions. And Dr. Lanie Velasco was attentive and clear.
Verified patient
Lanie has done a great job treating my back pain using a combination of exercise and therapeutic massage. I noticed improvement after the first session and have seen a steady decrease of pain during the weeks I have worked with her. In addition, she is very personable and seems to care a lot about the patients she works with.
Verified patient
She's awesome!!
Lanie treated me for several months after a back injury I suffered during crossfit. I really could not have asked for a better physical therapist after stumbling upon NY Spine & Rehab through a google search. I am not a patient person, but Lanie kept me focused on a rehab schedule and continuously urged me to complete my stretches/exercises/etc. and not jump back into working out too soon. She's incredibly professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and someone that I would highly recommend seeing for therapy.
Lanie is very professional and knowledgeable. She listens to you and adjusts accordingly. Her schedule is flexible and she is very accommodating. Lanie has great bedside manner!
Lanie is by far one of the best physical therapists that I've had to date. She has a great bedside manner, is very patient and I'm truly seeing results after dealing with an injury for the past three years. I'm so happy to have found her!
Love Lanie and whole team. Very knowledgeable, professional and fun at the same time! Every visit is on time and can’t beat the atmosphere. A+++
