Our goal is to help patients like you overcome pain, regain function, and restore mobility after injury, surgery, or other orthopedic conditions. We create personalized treatment plans that focus on your unique needs, ensuring a tailored approach to your recovery
The Post-Surgery Rehabilitation at Excel Physical Therapy offers a comprehensive program for ACL repair, total knee replacement, total hip replacement, or arthroscopic surgery of knee, shoulder or ankle. The main focus is to achieve the highest level of function to successfully return patients to work, sports or recreational activities.
Physical therapy after an orthopedic surgery is a crucial step in overall recovery. The goals are to decrease pain and inflammation, restore joint range of motion, increase muscle strength, endurance and flexibility and return patients back to their independence.
We take into consideration each patient’s needs and goals. The initial visit begins with thorough examination followed by a customized treatment plan and home exercise program. The progress is closely monitored on weekly basis. We educate patients on a variety of skills that will be important after surgery including safety awareness, proper use of brace, proper use of walker or cane at home and outside, proper transfer from bed to chair and from standing to sitting. We use modalities such as ultrasound, laser, TENS unit and ice for pain and swelling control. We introduce manual therapy and soft tissue mobilization early in the program to increase range of motion and improve blood flow. We design progressive resistive exercises, balance and proprioception training according to patient’s abilities to help build muscle strength, endurance and stability.

Excellent office, above and beyond service! All people work as a TEAM. Karina is a jewel to this place: friendly, nice and supportive. All people make you feel in a Spa, not in a doctor's office in it's usual sense (where you want to leave asap). Eros is a very knowledgeable and helpful (for any questions you get answers in a professional manner - he knows what he is doing and does an excellent job ). Grateful to Dr.Inna Kouperman MS,PT,who managed to organize her office in such a manner. The name Excel Physical Therapy says it all! Everybody knows that the Front desk is the Face of the office. So, I have to mention Tamara, who is always reminding me about appointment by phone and also greets with the smile and friendly face. I would greatly recommend this place to all people and would give more than 5 stars!!! Love you all!

I have been coming for 1 month. When I 1st came I could not even walk a block without having to stop because my legs, back & feet were killing me. I have diabetic neuropathy in my feet going to my calves as well. I have been having tens unit & hot stone therapy on my feet & calves and it is FANTASTIC. I have also been doing the bicycle (started at 5 minutes and now I can do 15 minutes) and balance & stretching for my calves & thighs. Inna is a MIRACLE WORKER. Last week after I left her office, i went walking from Brighton 3rd St. to 1 block short of Coney Island Ave. Then I turned down the block to Brighton Beach Ave. I walked all the way down to Brighton 1st St. without any PAIN or TROUBLE WITH MY FEET. Inna Kouperman Of EXCEL PHYSICAL THERAPY is the ABSOLUTE BEST and I RECOMMEND HER HIGHLY.. I can't wait to see what the next months progress brings !!!!!

Inna is just a know it all physical therapist, from my knee to my shoulder injury, she was able to help me heal my injuries. She takes her time and every time there is a different type of excercise or massage applied to the injured area. Can't say enough good things about her staff especially coming from different places like One n One where they do dverything repeatedly and nothing gets done.
