Doing Pelvic Care Differently, Because the Norm Isn’t Working!
Unbound Pelvis exists because something in our current healthcare system is not just strained or imperfect, but for many women, quietly harmful. Not from malice or incompetence, but from systems built under time pressure, productivity demands, & models of care that leave little room for complexity. I see the constraints providers are working under. I’ve worked inside them. And I’ve chosen to be part of the change rather than continue practicing in ways that ask women to fragment themselves to fit the system.
I didn’t arrive here through theory alone. I arrived here through my own body. Through pregnancies & cesareans, through persistent pelvic pain, through navigating a healthcare system that could name diagnoses, but not meaning. I learned firsthand how often women are given protocols without permission, exercises without understanding, & reassurance that quietly implies: this is as good as it gets. Unbound Pelvis was built as an alternative to that story.
A Practice Born from Lived Experience
Before Unbound Pelvis was a pelvic floor therapy practice, it was a reckoning. I am dual board-certified in Orthopedics & Women’s Health, with a background in athletic training & sports medicine. I know how to assess movement, treat tissue, & rehabilitate physical function. That expertise matters, but it does not explain why so many women continue to experience pelvic floor symptoms despite doing “everything right.”
What reshaped my work was learning to listen beyond biomechanics. Becoming a mother to two neurodivergent children required me to understand nervous system regulation, sensory processing, & survival responses in a way no clinical model ever fully had. Through them, I discovered my own neurodivergence & how deeply the body stores what it could not safely express. Trauma, rage, grief, & adaptation are not abstract ideas. They live in breath patterns, muscle tone, pain cycles, & pelvic health outcomes.
Unbound Pelvis is built from what I’ve learned in both the exam room & the living room. It integrates women’s health, perinatal, & orthopeadic physical therapy with trauma-informed care, honoring the reality that bodies do not heal in isolation from life experience.
When Pelvic Floor Symptoms are Communication
Many women who seek pelvic health care have already followed the standard treatment path. They’ve been told their pelvic pain is normal, their symptoms are mild, or that they simply need to strengthen, relax, or “trust the process.” Often, they leave care feeling unseen, blamed, or disconnected from their bodies, especially when symptoms persist.
This work begins with a different assumption: the body is not malfunctioning. It is communicating. Pelvic floor symptoms connected to birth trauma, chronic stress, neurodivergence, or major life transitions are rarely isolated events. They are patterns shaped by what the body has had to carry, contain, or survive. When care moves too quickly or ignores context, it misses the root cause.
At Unbound Pelvis, pelvic floor therapy is not about overriding symptoms or performing wellness. It is about restoring trust between a woman and her body. We slow down. We listen. We prioritize nervous system safety alongside physical rehabilitation because lasting change does not happen when the body feels rushed, judged, or unsafe.
A Different Way Forward
Unbound Pelvis is for women at any stage of life who sense that something deeper is going on & are tired of being told to ignore it. It is for those living with pelvic floor symptoms who want care that feels safer, slower, & fundamentally different from the norm. This is not about urgency or optimization. It is about humanity, dignity, humility, collaboration, safety & honoring body-truth.
The old way didn’t work. It didn’t work for me, & it doesn’t work for the women who come here after years of dismissal or misdiagnosis. This practice exists because there is another way. One that gets to the root, honors complexity, & supports women in coming home to themselves.
You are not broken. You have been bound by systems that couldn’t hold your body or your story. Your body has been responding intelligently to its environment. Here, it gets to be heard differently.
