Three signs you might benefit from pelvic health physical therapy:

💦 You notice leaking, pressure, or discomfort during workouts or daily activities
🪂 You feel disconnected from your core after pregnancy or surgery
⚡ You have pain that has not improved with traditional approaches

Your symptoms deserve more than quick fixes. Pelvic health physical therapy looks at the whole body to understand the root cause of issues like leaking, pelvic pain, back pain, pressure, or core weakness so you can experience lasting improvement.

At Catalyst Physical Therapy your sessions are individualized, hands on, and education focused so you understand your body and feel empowered in your recovery.

If you have been wondering whether pelvic health therapy is right for you, this is your reminder that you do not have to figure it out alone!

Hi, I am Dr. Amber, and Catalyst Physical Therapy was created from a simple belief that patients deserve time, compassion, and truly individualized care.

I wanted a space where people could feel heard, supported, and empowered to understand their bodies. A place where healing is not rushed and where education is just as important as treatment.

Every day I am grateful to work with people through pregnancy, postpartum recovery, injuries, and life transitions. Thank you for trusting Catalyst with your care and for being part of this growing community!

What makes Catalyst Physical Therapy different?

We believe your care should never feel rushed. Every 60-90 minute session is one on one with your physical therapist in a private treatment room so you receive focused attention, individualized treatment, and space to ask questions.

Our goal is to understand the root cause of your symptoms, not just treat the surface level pain. That means thoughtful assessment, hands on care, movement education, and a plan designed specifically for you.

If you are looking for a more personal and collaborative approach to physical therapy, you are in the right place. 🫶

Pelvic floor symptoms are common, but they are not something you just have to live with!

Leaking with exercise. Pain with intimacy. Pressure or heaviness. Core weakness that never quite improves.

These are signs that your body may need more support, not signs that something is “just part of life.” At Catalyst Physical Therapy we look at the whole body, not just one area, to help you move, feel, and function better with confidence.

Pelvic health physical therapy is for women, men, athletes, parents, and anyone who wants to understand their body better.

If you have been wondering whether your symptoms are normal, this is your reminder that you deserve answers!

February is Heart Health Month ❤️

Your heart is with you through every moment, busy days, quiet mornings, deep breaths, and belly laughs.

Taking care of your heart doesn’t have to be complicated. It can look like
moving your body in ways you enjoy, pausing to breathe and reset, choosing foods that nourish (not restrict), prioritizing rest and recovery and staying connected to people who fill your cup.

Heart health is about the small, daily choices that support you long term... not perfection.

This month, consider it an invitation to check in with yourself and show your heart a little extra love!

❤️ One step at a time.
❤️ One habit at a time.
❤️ You’re worth it.

Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) affects about 40% of women during their lifetime, with the risk increasing with age, childbirth, and other factors. Conditions like urinary incontinence, f***l incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse are common types of PFD.

Though less prevalent in men, it can still occur, especially related to conditions like chronic prostatitis or post-prostate surgery. The prevalence of PFD significantly impacts quality of life, especially in older adults.

​When it comes to symptoms of pelvic floor disorders such as urinary leakage, it is sometimes thought to be "normal" especially after having babies or when getting older.

But I am here to tell you that losing control of your bladder IS NOT NORMAL and there are things you can do to fix it!

That's where pelvic health physical therapy saves the day by:

Normalizing muscle tone (not just “strengthen”)
Improving coordination with breathing and movement
Reducing pain
Restoring confidence in your body
Return to exercise, work, and intimacy without fear or symptoms

Your pelvic floor is foundational to how you move, feel, and function every day. When it’s working well, you don’t think about it. When it’s not, it affects quality of life in a big way.

Call 520-222-6928 and schedule your evaluation today!

Some days, my patients remind me exactly why I do this work. 💛
Yesterday I was gifted a fresh, homemade loaf of bread—baked with so much thought and care. Proof that my patients truly know me… because nothing says “we appreciate you” quite like carbs. 🍞😌
The kindness, trust, and connection I get to experience with the people I work with is truly unmatched. This is why I love my job—and why I’ll happily accept bread as a love language.
