Since the conduct, based on allegations of injuries resulting from physical therapy, “ constitute [d] medical treatment or b[ore] a substantial relationship to the rendition of medical treatment” (Bleiler v Bodnar, 65 NY2d 65, 72 [1985]; see also Levinson v Health S. Manhattan, 17 AD3d 247 [2005]), plaintiffs complaint sounded in malpractice and the action was properly dismissed as time-barred (CPLR 214-a).
