CHRONIC PAIN TELEHEALTH PHYSICAL THERAPY · NY & NJ · MEDICARE ACCEPTED
Your pain is real. Your scan just isn't the explanation.
Most patients with chronic pain have seen the imaging, heard the diagnoses, and tried the treatments — and still hurt. The problem isn't always in your body structure. It's in how your nervous system has learned to protect you. That's exactly what I treat.

I’m Dr. Bobby Geevarughese PT, DPT, a telehealth physical therapist who specializes in chronic and neuroplastic pain — the kind that doesn’t respond to standard treatment because it’s driven by your nervous system, not tissue damage. I’ve lived it myself with many symptoms over the years, and I know the way out.

The Mind-Body Connection
Chronic pain — both structural and neuroplastic — is not just a physical issue but a complex interaction between your nervous system and your body. Using Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and a mind-body approach, I help you rewire your pain response, reduce fear of movement, and restore function through an evidence-based, whole-person approach.
A Clearer Path to Relief: My Approach vs Traditional PT
Mind Body PT (My Approach)
- Whole-Person Focus: Addressing the nervous system, stress, and emotions, not just tissue.
- Safety First: Reducing fear and stress as key drivers of persistent pain signals.
- Gradual Exposure: Gently reintroducing movement to rewire the brain's pain response.
- Compassionate Awareness: Shifting attention away from hypervigilance toward safety.
- Purposeful Exercise: Tools for functionality and building movement confidence.
- Structural Focus: Targeting abnormalities, weakness, or tightness.
- Avoidance Strategy: Instruction to avoid any movement that causes pain.
- Avoidance Cycle: Reinforcing fear through movement restrictions.
- Symptom Focus: Encouraging hyper-focus on pain levels.
- Fix-It Mentality: Exercises given solely with the intent of 'fixing' pain.

Who I Help
I work with people whose pain has lasted longer than expected and who are ready to feel safe in their bodies again. You may be a good fit if:
You're afraid to move. Bending, lifting, walking, or exercising feels risky, so you've been avoiding the things you love.
You've been told "everything looks fine," but you still hurt. Your imaging or tests don't explain your pain, and you want answers from someone who can examine your body.
You understand the mind-body connection but feel stuck physically. You understand PRT or TMS concepts, but you're still not moving the way you want to.
You want to rebuild strength and confidence. You're ready to get back to exercise, work, travel, or time with family, with a clear, gradual plan.
How I Work
As a physical therapist and PRT-certified provider, I focus on the body side of nervous-system healing:
A physical exam to check for structural concerns, so you can trust that your body is safe
Pain education that helps you understand why your pain persists
Gradual exposure to the movements and activities you've been avoiding
A personalized home program to keep your progress going
Working Alongside Therapists
Emotional health plays a big role in chronic pain. If you're looking for support with stress, emotions, or past experiences, I partner with PRT and mind-body therapists and can help connect you. Many of my clients work with both of us at the same time, so the mind and body sides of recovery are addressed together.
You're afraid to move — I help safely re-introduce it. Telehealth physical therapy for adults in New York and New Jersey. Medicare accepted.
