About me

JILLIAN LYE

PT, DPT, Cert-CMFA

Born in Singapore and trained in Australia, Jillian moved to New York City in 2017 with a diverse clinical background in orthopedic/sports injuries, neurology and pediatrics. She has worked in both spectrums of populations - from infants (as young as 2 months) up to geriatric adults above 88 years.

Coming from an athletic background, Jill spent her adolescent years as part of the Singapore Squash Junior Team, representing her country in major international tournaments such as Asian Juniors and World Junior Championships. She currently spends her free time learning Olympic lifting or doing Crossfit. She started her Oly lifting/Crossfit journey back in 2019 when a friend invited her to a free community class. This marked the turning point of her career as she loved the technicality of the sport, and honed her skill set to be certified in the rehabilitation of a fitness athlete (through ICE Physio). Jill incorporates a unique blend of fitness, functional strength and rehab into her interventions, combined with appropriate manual therapy techniques.

Jill is also a pediatric PT with a special interest in helping young infants through their motor milestones. She started working with children below the ages of 9 in 2017, after moving to New York City. She worked primarily with typically developing children with gross motor delays, but took interest in infant developmental milestones. Jill’s passion is to empower and support parents and their children through education, meaningful and therapeutic play.

Testimonials

  • Having had scoliosis that has increasingly deteriorated over the past 10 years and a recently herniated disc, my back was in the worst shape it has ever been before seeing Jillian. I could barely bend over without sharp pain, my back was so stiff I couldn’t get a good night’s sleep and even walking was met with pain. Jillian treated me one-on-one in my home and after a couple of months, I have greater mobility in my spine, zero pain and the ability to do cardio with stamina I never thought I was capable of having. Jillian taught me breathing exercises, self-correcting Schroth techniques and we have now progressed to weight and resistance training to better build my core strength. I’m no longer in perpetual pain, looking visibly less “curved” and am now able to run 15 minutes straight - an exercise I was never able to do even 10 years ago due to my scoliosis. Jillian is ever encouraging and patient, sends me detailed notes and videos of exercises after each session, tracks my progress and works closely with my orthopedic. To say Jillian has changed the way I move and live my life is an understatement and I’m so grateful for her personalized and detailed care.

  • Jill is a spectacular, talented, truly one of a kind pediatric physical therapist. After just a few sessions, I had already seen an incredible amount of physical improvement (and most of all, confidence!) in our 3 year old. She approached the sessions with so much grace, understanding, flexibility, and playfulness that our son looked forward to seeing her every week (and would ask for her when she's not here)! Jill's thoughtfulness and compassion as a person truly shined through in her work with our son. As a child psychologist, I also appreciated how she was able to meet my son where he was developmentally, both physically and emotionally. Jill is an absolute gem and any child would be so lucky to work with her!

  • We met Jill in March of 2023 after our pediatrician recommended PT for plagiocephaly. From the first session we immediately clicked and I knew she was the perfect PT for our son. She is so sweet and knows how to handle babies so well. Jacob was 4 months and couldn’t do tummy time for over 2 minutes without struggling and we had weekly sessions with Jill where we learned new exercises to practice at home. From the beginning Jill told us her goals with therapy for Jacob which kept everything very realistic. Jacob finally crawled and stood up on his own in Sept of 2023 when he was able to graduate PT. Thank you so much to Jill for her time and diligence with our baby Jacob.

  • "I struggled with bad plantar fasciitis and shin splints for almost a year until I had my first few physical therapy sessions with Forward Physio. The therapy sessions have been very personal, efficient, and led to almost immediate results. I went from being unable to walk a few miles to walking an average of 10 miles every day for almost a week on my last trip. I was speechless with the results and I owe this to Jillian! I highly recommend Forward Physio!

  • I had an incredible experience rehabbing my ACL with Jillian! My doctor saw me 3 months after surgery and he was so impressed with my progress. She is a friendly and approachable PT who possesses in-depth knowledge, explains exercises clearly, offers appropriate modifications, and makes the process easy. Jillian's professionalism and communication skills are top-notch. I highly recommend her for your PT needs!
