Healthy Pelvis Physical Therapy

Mar 2024

This review is long overdue. My daughter (10 years old) has been working with Sonia at Healthy Pelvis for pediatric pelvic physical therapy for constipation and leakage. Physical therapy with Sonia has been so incredibly helpful for my daughter, and it has helped with her understanding, self care and some relief immediately and continues. I can't recommend her enough for any pediatric pelvic issues. She was super helpful at explaining to my daughter how to not hold urine and how to manage some issues that my daughter has been having since she was two years old. She is no longer scared to play at recess or do the activities she loves because she now understands how to manage when and how she needs to go to the bathroom. It is seriously improved the quality of her life. I never realize that my child may actually need to learn/re-learn how to have a bowel movement after going through years of constipation. So helpful.

I'm in my second pregnancy and despite knowing I'm having a c-section, I have had a lot of sciatica and discomfort, so decided to check out Healthy Pelvis PT with Jess. To my surprise, it's made a world of difference, and even after my first meeting, I feel better than I have my whole pregnancy. Jess if really thoughtful and caring with her communication and makes sure I understand what's going on with my body. She helped release a lot of the tension in my hips and showed me some strengthening exercises. I'm really happy I took the leap and decided to invest in this. I look forward to continuing after birth as well.

Updating with my experience during/after my second pregnancy. This time I had pelvic pain at the beginning of the third trimester that made it hard to walk, especially after getting up from bed in the morning and from sitting. I made an appointment with Dr. Tanya when it was clear the pain wasn't going away and was only getting worse as the baby got bigger. She knew what the issue was right away and gave me a set of exercises and tips that significantly lessened the pain and helped me survive that last trimester. After delivery, I was unsurprisingly diagnosed with diastasis recti again and this time, I landed in the severe territory. I was resigned to the high possibility of needing surgery, but under Dr. Tanya's care and guidance, I managed to lessen the gap significantly to about 2 finger width. I am still healing and working on the depth of the gap, but the improvement so far (just 4 months postpartum) has really exceeded my expectations. I truly believe it's because of Dr. Tanya's care and all the things she taught me after my first pregnancy on maintaining a strong core that made this improvement possible. Finally, the online system makes it easy to make appointments or join the wait list for an earlier spot if anyone cancels. The superbills Dr. Tanya provides are also very helpful in submitting claims to insurance (counting towards my out-of-network deductible and getting reimbursements after that has been met). I cannot thank Dr. Tanya enough and highly encourage anyone with pelvic floor and other related postpartum conditions to go see her because ladies, we don't have to just "live with" some of these issues!
