  • Adjacent to Crossfit Clintonville at 609 Oakland Park Ave Suite C Columbus OH 43214. There, you will find a lobby, two private treatment rooms and access to a full gym.

  • No! In the state of Ohio we can see you via direct access law, which means patients can be evaluated and treated by a physical therapist without needing a practitioner or healthcare provider referral. However, we are happy to collaborate with any other healthcare professionals you are working with to ensure the best care possible.

  • Children are always welcome during your scheduled appointment. We do have a small stash of toys on hand.

  • Every individual case is unique and requires its own plan of care. We typically don’t see anyone for less than 6 visits. We also see women for years depending on their goals and chronicity of their symptoms. This is a lifelong journey for a lot of women. Consider us your primary care pelvic providers. There may be seasons of your life that you need more care or less.

  • No! We believe in preventative care and changing the model of Pelvic PT as a routine thing (think “I go to the dentist twice a year even when my teeth don’t hurt”)

  • Yes! We find great value in labor and delivery prep for women and spouses to aid in a better birth experience and teach you ways to manage pain, progress labor and avoid trauma to the pelvic floor muscles.

  • We love to see pregnant women! Early intervention is key for preventing the common pelvic floor dysfunctions from happening (incontinence, prolapse, diastasis recti, pelvic pain). We help women learn how to manage their growing body and change or modify physical activity. We also help women learn positions and techniques to aid in an optimal birth and minimize tearing and trauma to their body

  • Either can be great, and they can be great together! We both have different specialties and work closely with a few trusted chiropractors

  • Never! We love helping women in midlife after they are done having kids. Learning to manage any pelvic floor symptoms will improve and prevent worsening symptoms as you age. Your body has potentially spent decades learning habitual patterns but they can all be trained with hard work!

  • Definitely, it’s a misconception that you have to have had kids to have symptoms related to your pelvic floor. FALSE

  • We recommend comfortable clothing that you can move in and allows your therapist access to your abdomen, back, legs etc. At the initial evaluation, we will discuss your history and then tailor the sessions to your unique needs. This may include an internal vaginal or rectal exam if needed and agreed upon by you and your therapist.

  • No! If you prefer to not have these exams we can still help care for your pelvic floor symptoms and concerns.
