I help women overcome pelvic floor issues by feeling empowered in their bodies.✨ more posts on insta

I still remember being the girl in high school who loved to challenge herself and how strong it felt to lift but also had no clue what I was doing - could never get past 10 lbs each side on the bench press or went to the leg press when adding weight to the squat rack got scary to cause back pain..

It wasn’t until I was a physical therapist that I was taught the fundamentals. Then trying to get back to it postpartum was humbling how much bracing properly makes a world of difference.

After years of learning, unlearning, learning more and becoming a Women’s Health PT I want other women to reclaim confidence in their body, move with power not fear, and strengthen not only for strength but for long-term health and longevity (think bone, metabolism, mood).

Keep your eye out for a workshop soon 👀✨

Functional Dry Needling is like a reset to your muscle. It helps you restore function - decrease uncomfortable tension, decrease pain, improve motion and strength. It’s called dry because you’re not injecting anything (and the needle is similar to that of acupuncture - just a different technique). The technique I use includes hooking it up to e-stim so that it gives greater feedback to the muscle “let’s teach it how to fire again in the more functional range”

Some areas I commonly see greatly benefit:
✨Upper traps (tightness, limited turning of head, tension headaches)
✨hamstring (tightness, strain)
✨sciatica (low back, glute, hamstring, calf)
✨glutes (that annoying deep hip pain)

If you have something else in mind, ask! I always start with a screen.

The difference between a device-based quick fix and what I do isn’t just what’s being strengthened —> it’s who’s being empowered.

Devices like Emsella or Empower RF can absolutely have a place, especially for busy moms who just want relief. But they don’t teach your body how to coordinate breath, core, and pelvic floor under real-life loads.

That’s where pelvic-floor PT shines ✨ it has been determined in research as the first option. It helps retrain timing, pressure control, and functional support so your body knows what to do without you overthinking it.

But let’s be real too that Pelvic PT isn’t the end-all-be-all either.
Every body is different. Some symptoms respond beautifully to rehab alone, while others may benefit from an integrative approach that includes hormonal, fascial, or other tissue support based care.

That’s why an individualized assessment with a skilled clinician matters! Not just to “find weakness,” but to identify tension, tissue health, coordination, and the likelihood of success with each option.

You deserve a plan that supports you, not one that just sells you strength. 💪✨

📣 ✨ Strong. Energized. Centered. ✨
If I could bottle up how I want to feel each day, this would be it.

Between work, kids, and trying to do all the things, I used to swing between “run on caffeine” and “completely crashed.” I’m not one to want to take a nap 😅

That’s what this combo is doing (in addition to lifestyle habits) not a “quick fix,” but a steady return to feeling in sync again. Supporting your body the way it should without synthetics.

If your body’s been asking for a little RESET — more strength, energy, and calm — I have 4 friend-share codes that give you $10 off to try them. 💛

(Ready to feel Energized, Focused, Lean, Restored sleep… there’s peptides for that too)

DM me “peptide” to get your order in with the $10 code

Most people think physical therapy is about exercises and pain relief. For me, it’s always been about something deeper—helping people trust their bodies again.

Since it’s National Physical Therapy Month, I’ve been reflecting on what pulled me into this work in the first place. Honestly the short answer is my twin was interested first, and while in college she decided it wasn’t her career path I had to dive deep and decide was it mine? Being in the clinic and watching the relationships that form as you build a plan of care for someone was what kept me motivated. It’s funny all the things you sit in grad school and think you’ll never do, yet here we are:

✔️ specializing in women’s health
✔️ entrepreneur
✔️ practice in a hybrid model (not traditional)

I remember being so surprised how little I knew about the female body and symptoms that pelvic floor physical therapists could help with. I thought “If I had those issues, I would want to know there’s somewhere to get help”.

So here I am!
5 years of practice with 3.5 of those specializing in Women’s Health, and 1.5 in my own practice ✨

Work that challenges you in a way that helps become a better person is the greatest gift a career can give ✨

So here’s to the small/big wins, the steady progress, and the people behind every recovery story. I’d love to know—what’s one moment when you realized your body could do more than you expected?

OCT MINI CHALLENGE: ✨💥Most women don’t realize energy isn’t just about sleep — it’s about how regulated your nervous system feels when you wake up.
If your mornings start with rushing, tension, or scrolling, your body stays in “go mode” all day… leaving you drained by noon.

Try this instead 👇
✨ Choose one small habit to anchor your morning.
Maybe it’s a deep breath before getting out of bed, or a 3-minute reset before opening emails. Choose one energizing habit to anchor your morning (like the one in comments you’re going to implement or suggest a new one!)

✨ Women’s health isn’t just about surviving—it’s about thriving.

Did you know:

· Clinical research shows that 90-95% of all medical physical conditions are due to stress. Stress has some level of influence.

· Nearly 80% of women report regular fatigue that impacts daily life.

· 1 in 2 women struggle with hydration habits—even mild dehydration can affect energy, mood, and focus.

· And almost 60% of women say brain fog holds them back from showing up fully in work, motherhood, or workouts.

✨ If you’ve ever felt like you’ve “tried everything” and still struggled with energy, metabolism, or brain fog… it’s not your fault.

👉 Diets and workouts alone don’t always account for the physiological shifts women face. Hormones, hydration balance, and stress resilience all play a role.

Here’s the truth:

· If you’ve started programs and “failed,” it wasn’t a lack of willpower. Often, your body simply needed more support at the cellular level.

· Peptides are not a shortcut or a replacement for movement, nutrition, or sleep. They work with your lifestyle, amplifying the results of the healthy choices you’re already making.

· You’ve probably suspected that caffeine, water, or diet hacks alone aren’t enough—and you’re right. Science shows hydration, recovery, and metabolism need deeper support.

· The old “just eat less and move more” myth oversimplifies women’s health. Sustainable wellness is about strength, clarity, and balance—not restriction.

That’s why I’m excited to share something that goes beyond band-aid solutions. These products support the foundation of women’s wellness—muscle metabolism, hydration, endurance, stress resilience, and focus.

👉 It’s not about “quick fixes.” It’s about building strength, clarity, and balance that last.
👉 It’s about feeling powerful in your body and your mind.

And because I know how game-changing this can be, I have 10 “refer-a-friend” codes for 10% off to celebrate this launch 🎉

🌿 If you’ve been waiting for a nudge to prioritize your energy, your focus, and your strength—this is it.

✨ Let’s MAKE wellness a movement, together.
