I have been going to an outpost of Professional for the past 17 years, which is blowing my mind as I write it. I have always found the therapists to be attentive, kind and thoughtful in their work. Not to mention the facilities are always clean and well cared for. Elena, Serena, and the whole staff... provided the best physical therapy experience I have ever had. Coming off a particularly frustrating back injury that put a pause on my running plans, Elena took the time each session to understand how I was progressing and make adjustments to my plan. Over the course of the past 3 months I have gotten to a place where I can run and exercise comfortably again, and it wouldn't have happened without this team. This is the place you want to go!read more

I have worked with both Todd and Elaina over the past few months for a left knee injury. They are both extremely knowledgeable in their field and want me to improve just as much as I do.

I have made amazing progress and continue in doing so thanks to Professional PT.read more

Lisa B.
After injuring my ankle/foot and being in an immobilizing boot for 6 weeks, I was so discouraged - my range of motion was horrible and pain was unbearable! All of the therapists have worked diligently to guide me on my road to recovery. Scheduling has been flexible (which is great since I have 3... young kids) and the therapists are always hyper focused on insuring that I am making progress and my pain is decreasing. Without them, I would still be limping! I am forever grateful to Elaina, Lauren, and Todd.read more

Elena is amazing and truly cares about her patients. Her and her team are extremely knowledgeable. Thefacility is clean and they did a good job keeping everyone safe during the pandemic.
Marina S.
Elena Malik was my physical therapist. I broke my leg (femur/hip fracture) having slipped on ice. Elena provided me with exercises that helped me walk again without any assistance. I went from walker, to two crutches, to one crutch to cane to NOTHING. Was able to accomplish this because Elena... was attentive to the muscles that needed stretching and strengthening. She monitored my progress very carefully. She used new techniques from a PT conference she attended. I am very grateful to Elena and recommend her services to any other person who needs PT! Thank you Elena :)read more

Roza S.
Elena is amazing! She is very knowledgeable and provides a personalized hands-on care. I came to physical therapy for a severe knee pain that was limiting my ability to perform everyday tasks. With the combination of massage therapy (she is the most skilled massage therapist I’ve ever worked with)... and a personalized exercise plan I was able to ditch the pain killers and regain my strength. I actually achieved more than my doctor thought was possible! Elena was there to help me and cheer for me along the way. She truly cares about her patients.read more

I injured my knee while running and I came to Professional Physical Therapy in Pleasantville where I was treated by Todd and Elena. They were both great! They were very attentive and gave me a lot of different exercises to do both in the clinic and at home.

Elena and the entire staff were incredible. I've had PT for several injuries and Elena is hands down the best physical therapist I have ever had. She has an excellent balance that helps you mend while also gently pushing you to challenge and grow stronger. PT requires patience, and Elena has a deep... bench of patience. I followed her instructions to the letter, made the appointments for the frequency she prescribed and she helped me heal. I recommend Elena and this PT office to everyone I know. Also, the front desk staff are friendly. Paul and Michelle were extremely helpful.I would give them 10 stars if I could!read more

I am really lucky to be Elena Malik's patient.Last year I suffered from back pain because of lumbar radiculopathy. The pain was intolerable. Now I can walk without pain thanks to her professional skill, kindness, the energy of her hands and her smile.
Sabrina M.
In July, I got into a boating accident which led to serious injuries to my right leg and foot- severed tendons and a cut calf muscle. After looking up various Physical Therapy offices in Mt. Pleasant, I decided to go with Professional Physical Therapy and booked appointments with Elena 3 days a... week. It was the best decision I made in my recovery process. Elena is so unbelievably talented at her job - knowledgable, kind, attentive, and compassionate every step of the way during my recovery. She is a pleasure to see on a daily basis with a great and friendly personality. When I went back to my surgeon months later, he was shocked at the progress and mobility in my leg. 4 months later I am back to my daily routine and partaking in the activities I love.The entire staff at Professional Physical Therapy was top notch - Paul, Annie, Todd, Michelle and Elena. Paul always made sure my appointments were booked properly and handed me a paper receipt after every session.I would recommend this Physical Therapy office to anyone - especially booking with Elena! 10/10!read more
Mike D.
In 2014, I broke my foot playing baseball and was relegated to the sidelines (managing but not playing) during my team’s magical championship run. 6 years later, I saw we had the same magic early on and decided to proactively prevent a similar situation. I had been battling chronic back issues... for years and they seemed to creep back every baseball season. I started physical therapy with Elena at Professional Physical Therapy before the start of the delayed 2020 New York Adult Baseball Season with one goal in mind. To be healthy to be able to be on the field and contribute to another championship. Thanks to Elena’s guidance and amazing knowledge of the human body, we were able to identify the problem, isolate the seldom used core muscles that I wasn’t using and I was on the field for our championship! Thanks to Elena and the team, Professional PT lives up to its name.read more
Kendall B.
I started going here during the COVID pandemic and have been completely blown away by the cleanliness of the space, spacing of patients, and attention to detail from the staff, from reception to my PT, Todd.The PT I receive is top notch and I’m always kept on my toes from visit to visit. I would... highly recommend going to PPT in P’ville without a doubt.read more
Chaz B.
Todd, Jen, Serena, and Sarah are all very attentive, kind, personable, ego-free, and know their craft. The space is large, clean, has ample parking, and offers flexible hours, six days a week. Front desk staff, Paul and Michelle, are great as well.I’ve used a couple less desirable PT spots in the... past, and had a lot of options when looking to rehab my surgically-repaired elbow this time ‘round, and so far over my first two weeks here, I know I’ve made the right choice.read more

Bio

Dr. Serena Chryssikos attended Binghamton University in New York for her undergraduate degree, and then continued on to Long Island University in Brooklyn, New York to earn her Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Prior to and while attending physical therapy school, she worked as a trainer and also taught group exercise classes. There were multiple ground-breaking moments in Dr. Chryssikos’s life that inspired her to pursue a career in physical therapy. Most notably, when her younger sister underwent a highly invasive scoliosis surgery, and witnessing her go from barely able to walk to becoming a full-fledged varsity athlete, all thanks to her amazing physical therapist. Several years later, on a more personal level, she found herself totally defeated and facing surgery in a physical therapy office after sustaining a debilitating knee injury -- the result of a 17-year soccer career. Thanks to the amazing PTs and PTAs she worked with, she found herself not only back on the soccer field, but participating in Olympic lifting, competing in physique events and completing Spartan races. She was told that surgery was the only option, managed to avoid surgery; it was the physical therapists who helped her return to her prior level of function and advance even further. Physical therapy taught her that there is life after injury. These events all contributed to her decision to pursue her doctorate in physical therapy. Dr. Chryssikos incorporates her interest in sports, her experience with strength and conditioning training and her love of Pilates in sessions with patients. “At the end of the day, there is nothing more gratifying than hearing from my patients that I have helped them in some way. I enjoy being relatable, and I love it when my patients can find some commonality while working with me. My young adult athletes especially motivate me, because they remind me of myself when I sat in that physical therapy office more than 15 years ago, and this in and of itself inspires me to keep doing what I do.” Dr. Chryssikos is a self-proclaimed foodie. When she isn’t treating patients or working out, she enjoys following New York sports teams, star-gazing, relaxing on the beach and traveling all over the globe with her husband.

Bio

Graduated Cum Laude from Moravian University in 2023 with my BS in Health Sciences on Pre-PT track. I then went on to earn my DPT from New York Medical College in 2026. Being a two sport athlete my whole life I've had my fair share of orthopedic injuries that led me to physical therapy. I first got introduced to the profession after going through 2 ACL reconstruction surgeries in high school . During that time, I thoroughly enjoyed showing up to my PT sessions and was able to see how much of an impact it had on me physically and mentally. Without the help of my PT, I would have never been able to walk up the stairs or return to the lacrosse field. When I got to college, I realized I wanted to help people the same way I was helped in high school. Physical therapy allows me to blend my two passions of exercise and helping people into one.
