Lize Lubbe Physical Therapy (LLPT) was established in 2020 by life long physical therapist, Lize Lubbe, to create a positive rehabilitation environment in the Northern Westchester community. Lize’s passion for physical therapy has always inspired her to look beyond a patient's immediate health challenge by empowering them to take control of their bodies and learn to function in day-to-day life.
Lize and her team believe in individualized treatment programs consisting of a balance between therapeutic modalities, hands-on treatment, and physical exercise. LLPT’s goal is to support and empower each patient to reach their full rehabilitation potential.
