Katya Shubova grew up in Odessa, Ukraine. At age five she enrolled in a dance school to study classical and folk dance and at age seven in artistic (rhythmic) gymnastics which led to her becoming a competitive athlete well into her young adulthood. This experience marked the beginning of her fascination with the human body, which is what drew her into the field of Physical Therapy. When she relocated to New York, she majored in physical therapy at Stony Brook, SUNY and has been a therapist for nearly twenty years working with clients from birth through advanced adulthood.
As a result of her professional expertise, Katya became quite interested in studying the primary causes of diseases that, if left untreated, could become chronic, and in ways to prevent such diseases. She felt discouraged by a strictly western medical approach to health that only sought to manage pain but not heal it, and had continued to expand her knowledge of exercise physiology as well as the field of mind – body connection. As an expert practitioner of Vispassana meditation, yoga and Qi Gong, ancient healing techniques that balance vital energy, she began to conduct studies about the powerful link between a tranquil mind and the healing potential it releases into the body. She is now helping her clients reach their goals of ultimate health and happy living by incorporating these practices in her treatment and coaching sessions.
Katya has a vast experience in working with clients of all ages, from zero to a hundred and up. She has helped new born and premature babies to catch up with their peers’ development and go exceed those standards. She enables her more mature clients to stay fit and healthy regardless of their age.
Nutrition plays a major role in Katya’s approach to health coaching. She has a vast knowledge of supplements and herbal remedies. Instead of relying on multivitamins, Katya believes that each body has its own specific nutritional requirements, and teaches her clients how to adopt healthy eating habits. Katya assesses supplemental need by factoring diet, age, gender, fitness level, symptoms, sleep pattern and emotional states.
Katya’s greatest satisfaction comes from seeing her clients’ success. She is 100% committed to her clients by designing a program that works, and by making adjustments when necessary. She is their coach, there to help them manage their condition and to motivate changes for continual health improvement.

Board Certified Clinical Specialist in Orthopedic and Physical Therapy

Dr. Caronia's Philosophy and Approach

The body’s musculoskeletal system is a machine built to deal with forces. Whether walking down the street or completing the decathalon, our bodies’ structures withstand an infinite number of forces on a minute-to-minute basis. It is the efficiency and symmetry with which we deal with these forces that determines whether pain and injury occur.
Pain is essentially a radar, notifying us when something is wrong with a tissue. In most cases, the cascade of events that lead to the tissue being damaged or irritated is an inefficient or asymmetrical handling of forces. What does that mean? We aren’t moving well.
This is where Dr. Caronia comes in. The only way to effectively deal with pain and injury is to eliminate strain on the affected tissues, facilitate healing, establish proper balance, and re-introduce activity. Moving well leads to long-term, sustainable musculoskeletal health.
Dr. Caronia provides individual, specialized care in order to help his patients achieve this goal quickly and easily. His focus is on providing exceptional treatment using whatever combination of manual therapy, neuromuscular re-education, and functional training is necessary, precisely tailored to each patient.

Ever Session is At Least One Hour, One-On-One With Dr. Caronia

You will never encounter an aide, physical therapy assistant, trainer, or student. You will never be handed a sheet of exercises and given a hot pack before being shooed out the door.

Multiple Convenient Location Options

You can receive treatment at Dr. Caronia’s outpatient facility in midtown Manhattan, one of many other gyms and facilities throughout the city with which he is affiliated, or through concierge visits at your home or office.

All Major Insurances Are Accepted On An Out-Of-Network Basis

All insurance paperwork and processing are taken care of for you. You will receive a thorough insurance consult before beginning treatment so you know everything you need to know about your plan.

24 Hours A Day Care

Dr. Caronia is available via email and phone for you or any practitioners involved in your care 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Our therapists focus on healing and preventing re-injury by sharing knowledge and educating our patients about the anatomy and physiology related to their daily activities.

We combine traditional physical therapy treatments and exercise with other alignment focused exercise and movement systems such as pilates according to our patients needs.

Our focus is on manual therapy and educating the body via exercise for optimal and energy efficient movement; as well as targeting the dysfunction while simultaneously treating and decreasing the symptoms.

We believe in one-on-one sessions in which the therapist and the patient interact in every visit.

"Jennifer is the most talented diagnostician and patient "active listener" I have encountered in my 3+ years of healing.

Jennifer is realistic and gives you genuine goals, challenging your body only when you are ready.

Jennifer went directly to my pain and on 'Day 1' assumed nothing as she began working on my case from all sides-physical, social, emotional, intellectual.

Core Focus is a group interested in the whole person and gave me the most affective, custom, well-rounded treatment I have had to date-after visiting 4 PT clinics in 2 1/2 years."
- Melinda McNeill

"What is even more impressive than Jennifer's knowledge of the human body and rehabilitation techniques is the application of principles used to rectify one's ailments. It is in Kinesiology where Core Focus PT excels. The same injury can have extreme differences among two patients and the therapy required may be completely different. It is not always as simple as a text-book may say. Try finding this kind of individualized attention at the all-too-familiar "assembly-line" physical therapy clinics polluting New York City. I should know as I've been through most of them and have had my injuries aggravated further."
- Jared Longhitano
