Tamar Amitay, PT, MS

ABOUT TAMAR

From the earliest days in her career, Tamar recognized that in order for her patients to effectively heal, the application of advanced manual therapy techniques combined with thorough and focused one on one sessions were critical to a patient’s healing journey. However, most models for physical therapy at the time simply could not allow for the time and space that practitioners and patients needed to do the hard work of rehabilitation.

With the opening of Thrive Integrated Physical Therapy in 2003 - Tamar was able to realize her vision - a healing space where both patients and expert practitioners could actually thrive, empowered by expanded private session time, cutting edge rehabilitative techniques and a robust array of uncrowded equipment.

CLINICAL APPROACH

As a practitioner, Tamar utilizes a biomechanical and neuromuscular approach to treatment utilizing advanced clinical reasoning and the most current evidenced based research to identify the underlying cause of the patients dysfunction and pain. Her aim is to return you to your maximum potential by restoring you to pain free function quickly, empower you with knowledge of your diagnosis and to partner with you on an array of self-treatment techniques for when you are not in our clinic.

CONTINUING EDUCATION & BEYOND

In addition to her clinical work, Tamar is an assistant teacher in the doctoral program at Touro College for Spinal Dysfunction. Tamar's outside interests revolve around her love of the arts, theater, opera, pilates and tennis.
