I speak your language…… The mindset and body of a female athlete deserves someone who understands their needs, goals and experiences. Female athletes, postpartum female athletes in particular, are not given enough guidance to continue their lives at the level they were accustomed. Working together we collaborate on a long term plan for health and function that is right for you. I enjoy working with women in all stages in their life to meet your goals.

How am I different?

• I am a “one stop shop”. I see you as whole person, not just a body part. Having Board Certification in Orthopedics, I am able to help with any musculoskeletal issue like low back pain, shoulder pain and any other issues that may arise in your return to exercise. My results are quicker and my outcomes are better than conventional therapy because you are invested in your care.

• I combine my orthopedic and women’s health knowledge to bridge the gap between the postpartum stage and return to exercise .

• Do you experience leaking with running, exercise, jumping rope or higher intensity training? Have pain with exercise or having pelvic organ prolapse? These are all common but not normal and deserve a therapist who knows the difference in treatments. We will evaluate you and come up with a plan based on your findings and your lifestyle.

• Being a former collegiate athlete, I am able to perform lifting assessments and help you return safely after pregnancy to more strenuous activity such as high intensity training, running , or any sports .

• * before you begin any exercise program you should consult your MD . These guides are not medical advice and should not be replaced for medical recommendations. These guides are based on the latest research in postpartum care for return to exercise.
