Best Pelvic Health Physical Therapy for Women in Durham
Quality, one-on-one care for urinary and bowel concerns, pregnancy and postpartum care, and pelvic pain.
If you're struggling with pelvic pain, urinary leakage, or another disruptive pelvic symptom, and you're feeling a bit lost, just know that I've been there too and I'm here to help you!
I started my practice to treat patients in the holistic, compassionate way that I believe they deserve to be treated. I focus on providing the best pelvic floor physical therapy care for women in Durham.
What to expect at Durham Pelvic
Not all pelvic health care is equal. Inside my clinic, these are the standards of pelvic care:
Every session is spent one-on-one with me, your Doctor of Physical Therapy. There are no assistants you'll be shuffled off to, nor will you be working with a different person at each visit.
We'll work together in a private, calm room rather than a loud, busy gym.
I pride myself in truly listening to my patients. Many of my patients have had poor experiences with previous medical providers where they were constantly interrupted and invalidated. That won't happen here.
I specialize in pelvic health. Which means that you'll be working with an expert in your condition, rather than someone who only sees some pelvic cases on the side, or whose true passion lies elsewhere. Dealing with pelvic conditions is hard enough - you deserve a specialist to care for you.
You'll do more than just kegels. I'll look at your entire body to make sure that we get to the root cause of your symptoms so that we can resolve them for good.
You'll get the hands-on care you deserve. I have extensive training in many manual techniques (including myofascial release, dry needling, and visceral mobilization) that I use to help patients feel better and move better.
You'll get the tools you need to feel confident in your body. I love helping women reach their goals so that they can live their lives without worrying about their pelvic floor!
“Such a fabulous experience! At a time that I was concerned about my health, Rachel offered kind, professional care. Never rushed and very patient. I heartily recommend Durham Pelvic!” —Kathryn M.J.
