Shaden took the time to address my physical needs, and worked with me to help improve my neck pain. She critiqued my posture which combined with the exercises was a huge help. I’ve had 8 physical therapy appointments and feel so much better every day because of this. Thank you Shaden and Universus !

I drive from Syossett to visit the Universus Physical therapy in Huntington for my sessions. We typically start out with some stretching then move to targeted exercises that focus on my back pain. After 6 sessions I’ve noticed a significant improvement with less back aches randomly throughout the day! As we get older it’s important to try and keep our bodies young! Physical therapy has definitely helped me with this. It gets me moving, I’ve learned several exercises I can do at home (although it’s always better getting help from an expert!)

I’ve tried physical therapy exercises for knee pain for years, and only after I saw Shade’ and her team at Universus did I understand what I was doing wrong all these years! This is not your average Physical therapy center!!! Highly skilled experts, that welcome you with a smile.

Really loved the attention and care I got working with Shaden at UniversusPT! I’ve visited 2 other physical therapy centers, one is also a Huntington Physical Therapy center, but nothing like Universus! The other physical therapy location was in in Syosset NY, and it was okay. The exercises I learned at UniversusPT were different, and focused on my problem areas in a different way. I’ve since recommended Shadens’s physical therapy services to a friend of mine and she is also very satisfied!

I was having really bad shoulder pain so I decided to give Universus physical therapy a try. I committed to 8 appointments, and I was truly amazed how my pains began to subside after only a few sessions. The exercises were very interesting and catered specifically to me which I liked. I visited the Huntington Universus Physical Therapy.

Great experience! My back was completely immobile when I first started going to Chris. Not only did he get my back unlocked, he zoned in on why it locked up in the first place and worked with me each session to strengthen my weak glutes and hamstrings. I'm now completely pain-free, mobile and getting stronger each day based on the exercises Chris shared with me and has encouraged me to keep doing. Thanks Chris!

I started pt at Universus a few months ago when my neurologist prescribed it due to lower back issues. I love going there twice a week. Each member of the staff is excellent. I am so motivated to do more exercise at home and continue the work that the therapists do when I am there. My back is so much better but when it is acting up I know just what to do to help myself thanks to their expertise.

I was searching for Physical therapy near me in Northport for my mother in law, and stumbled across this business. We decided to trust UniversusPT with my mother-in-law who is old and somewhat frail. Shaden was extremely gentle and caring. My mother-in-law is in her 80’s, and Shaden adjusted the physical therapy exercises for her strength & energy levels. She was very pleased and so were we!

There are plenty of physical therapy locations near me in Oyster Bay, but UniversusPT came highly recommended and they didn’t disappoint! It was a bit more than I wanted to pay out of pocket but worth it. Living a ‘normal’ life where simple things like walking without pain, is a blessing. Thank you UniversusPT !

There are simple things outside of our physical therapy exercises that she’s helped me learn, like to avoid sitting cross legged, not to sleep on my stomach etc. I highly recommend UniversusPT, I’ve tried other Huntington physical therapy clinics but didn’t get the attention or care I receive with Universus.

I have a neck pain that hasn’t gone away in over a month, and it has progressed to weakness and shoulder pain as well. My doctor recommended “rest” & physical therapy.After only a few sessions with Universus’s physical therapy I’m feeling much better! I really appreciate the care and fully guided physical therapy exercises. Some of these neck pain physical therapy exercises are very strange but they’re working, so I can’t complain.

I have chronic knee pain due to sports injuries throughout my life, and my orthopedic surgeon recommended I try PRP and knee pain physical therapy. I found UniversusPT’s Huntington physical therapy clinic online and I’m very happy with my sessions so far.It’s a small studio, they only have 1 on 1 sessions so I get full attention. Unlike other physical therapy clinics from what my friends tell me.

Family friendly PT office. Receptionist is well versed in her job. Therapists work hard to get you back to where you should be in R.O.M. and flexibility. Questions answered with enough detail to satisfy most inquiries and if you need more information - just ask. They aim to make your visit as productive as they can.

The first thing one notices when entering Universus Physical Therapy is the upbeat atmosphere. Jenn and Dana on the frontline make up the administrative component. They handle scheduling, billing and things that keep the office running smooth. They’re friendly, enthusiastic and they make it all happen - they’re great. The waiting area is comfortable and pleasant - I mention the “waiting area” but I hardly ever wait. That’s because the Practice runs a punctual operation which works great for me. They respect my time and I respect theirs - it allows me to efficiently plan my day. If this is your first Physical Therapy experience, lucky you... you picked the right place. Thanks to an action-packed lifestyle and a long list of injuries over the years, I’m no stranger to Physical Therapy Centers - Universus is different than the rest. Everyone listens and hears you here. Most PT centers (that I’ve been to in the past) break the sessions into supervised and unsupervised time. Half the time may be one-to-one with an actual Physical Therapist and the remaining half you might be with a PT Tech (for heat/ice, etc.) or merely left alone, unsupported, to do the prescribed exercises. The Universus approach is strictly one-to-one, you’re with a Therapist the entire appointment. Tiffany is a skilled and highly trained Physical Therapist. She’s motivating and my sessions are productive. Afterwards I may be a little sore, but it’s a “good sore” and temporary only. But after all, it’s Physical Therapy not a leisure Spa - it means the treatment is working and that I’m getting what I came for. I had knee pain for many months with frequent and excruciating flair ups. Since working with Tiffany my pain has diminished to a manageable level allowing me to resume most of my fitness activities (and has also kept me out of the Operating Room). Shaden Ghattas is another terrific Physical Therapist (also the Owner). There’s a uniqueness to this Practice. It exudes positive vibes/energy and patient wellbeing. Shaden Ghattas has been at this location for many years (safe & convenient parking). Covid19 safety measures are in place to the best extent possible. Can’t say enough about the staff. Universus PT is a totally professional rehab facility. I highly recommend..

Dr. Ghattas is highly knowledgeable and has a hands on/customized approach to fit each individuals needs. While other physical therapist Practices seem to have a “mill like” approach, Universis spends quality time with their patient for the duration of the session. Extremely committed and organized staff creates for a wonderful experience every time. I highly suggest that you or a family member go to this physical therapy practice next time you need to heal up quickly.

If I could give this Horrible money hungry spot a 0 star I would. The service is awful . I have not one not 2 but 3 insurances. They still wanted to push me to pay Out of pocket. Then the owner Shaden is disrespectful and not professional. DO NOT give them your email address !! they will spam it with useless information trying to get you back there, when you clearly said NOO.

This PT provider is unlike any other I have used. The physical therapists all have doctorates in PT, and as a patient you receive total customized individual attention from one of the therapists. There are no assistants. Each therapist is thoroughly knowledgeable, is caring, is focused completely on what you need to be better. And each is a nice person, which isn't always the case with such professionals. There are many PT providers in my neighborhood, and at my age I've been to a number of them over the years. I'll definitely stick with Universus!

THANK YOU UNIVERSUS!I had the good fortune to be referred Universus by my pain Doctor. I have disk degeneration in my neck and have been in continuous pain for 13 years.I have been to surgeons and pain doctors who prescribed drugs and injections which sometimes eliminated the symptoms but did nothing to address the causes of my pain. I was referred to "Physical Therapy Mills" which gave me rote exercises to do and did manipulations that increased my inflammation and pain. The same with chiropractic .Dr Gahttas and her associate Dr.Perfetti correctly diagnosed my problem as primarily a postural one and addressed the specific muscles that needed to be first relaxed with massage and then strengthened with specific exercises in the office and at home. Each patient is given individual attention. My pain has been reduced to the point where I rarely take medication . I feel like I have been let out of prison. My wife also had very positive experiences with Universus in dealing with her hip pain.

I hiighly recommend UNIVERSUS PHYSICAL THERAPY. Before doing any physical therapy they do a full analysis of the injury that needs to be treated. The physical therapy is one on one which means your specific needs are addressed.. You are also provided with an e-mail video of the exercises you should do at home.

Shaden is a compassionate skillful physical therapist. Her knowledge of the body, hands on approach and ability to work with and listen to her patients is beyond what I have experienced with PTs in the past. I recommend her often without hesitation.

Shaden is a knowledgeable, caring and compassionate person. The 45 minutes one on one sessions are invaluable. I’ve been going to her for 3 years. I had spine fractures due to osteoporosis and Shaden was able to work with me to increase my strength and mobility which has helped me tremendously in preventing other fractures. I totally trust her expertise.

After suffering for one year with thigh pains that limited my mobility my primary care physician suggested Universus Physical Therapy. After Dr. Shaden Ghattas examined me she immediately diagnosed the root problem and decided on a program for me. After 3 visits I was starting to feel better. I’m convinced they have the knowledge and ability to help most anyone. They’re concerned, caring and professionals. Their offices are conveniently located for north shore patients.

I have found a wonderful therapist, Shaden Ghattas, of Universus Physical Therapy. I have been seeing Shaden since October 1st. I must say that she is the first therapist I have encountered who shares my philosophy, Shaden is very holistic in her approach. In the past, I saw a holistic chiropractor who also was wonderful, but unfortunately she retired several years ago. Since her retirement I never felt healed after a treatment.This has all changed since I have been seeing Shaden. Her care and thorough treatment is nonpareil. In addition to her therapy I have been given exercises, many yogic, which has helped me to improve both mentally and physically. I highly recommend Universus Physical Therapy!

I have had 5 major surgeries in 6 years and Shaden has helped me more then any other PT. She knows exactly how to help me strengthen my core and her exercises that she gave me are designed just for me! She spends 45 minutes alone with all her patients so they have her complete attention unlike so many other pt facilities! She is also a warm and welcoming woman who I have complete trust in for my recovery!

Shaden (owner) is personable,knowledgeable and totally attentive to her clients needs and concerns. Universus is a small studio and each client gets her complete attention as you will be the only person there for your entire appointment. A welcome change from big therapy places where the therapist (or several therapists) are treating more than one client at the same time.I've been to a number of different places in my life and this is just what I was looking for.Highly recommended.

You will find her knowledge in her field vast and pleasure to see. I always look forward to my next visit!

I had an accident at work that left me with extensive neck pain and nerve damage running down my left arm about 5 years ago. Doctor Ghattas was able to help me heal my body within three months. I still continue to live pain free and maintain full mobility to this day. I am forever grateful for her help. I feel even better today than I felt before the injury.

I am a yogi and former dancer with a hyper mobile pelvis. Shadan's expertise is unbelievable. She always helped me recover from my injuries. Always friendly and yet focused on her manipulations and the exercises given to me. She always has been able to see me in as soon as she could when I needed her. Why would one want to go elsewhere?

Shaden at Universus Physical Therapy is a knowledgeable and caring healer. I first saw her with painful frozen shoulder. She worked with me to regain my range of motion through hands-on, in-office therapy, and recommended at-home exercises to maintain my progress. After a few months of working together, my shoulder is much better and I'm able to regain normal movements. I highly recommend her!
