I love what I do! Some would say I’m obsessed. I feel really lucky to get to be a part of people’s journey. Anytime someone is seeing a pelvic physical therapist it’s for something vulnerable. Often something people rarely talk about with even their closest friends. Over and over, my patients say it took them years to get in because they didn’t know they needed it. So many people talk about being misdiagnosed, their symptoms brushed off, being told it’s in their head, and bounced between multiple providers. Please know that pelvic PT works with a lot of different things and is a safe space for you to say whatever you feel comfortable talking about.

If you have any of these things and have questions- reach out! Schedule a free phone consult with us! If you think your friend has any of these things- send this to them. Awareness and talking about it will help people get seen sooner.

Ok so be honest, which of these was the most surprising? Did you know them all?
