So many women come to us thinking:

“My body just isn’t the same.”
“I’m weak now.”
“I’m scared to exercise.”

Your body adapted through pregnancy and birth, and now it may need help rebuilding:
✨ coordination
✨ deep core connection
✨ pelvic floor support
✨ confidence with movement

You don’t need to avoid movement forever.

You need a plan that meets your body where it is. We can help with root-cause, whole-body care.

💛 Because strong looks different after motherhood.

Help us welcome, Dr. Katie! 🎉

Katie has a passion for helping all genders with pelvic floor issues like: leaking, painful s*x, constipation, prolapse, and more. Using her advanced training in trigger point dry needling and pelvic floor physical therapy, coupled with a background in yoga, she partners with patients to help them feel confident and in control of their bodies again. Her goal for all her patients is that they feel heard, supported, and empowered.

Personally, Katie is a classic rock fan who often listens to Queen in the car on the way to the clinic. She is also a big professional wrestling fan and has been to several live shows. When not at the clinic you can find her teaching yoga classes, reading a book with her cat on her lap, or trying the coolest new restaurant in town with her fiancé.

You shouldn’t have to brace before a laugh.

Or think twice before sneezing.

Or wonder if your workout, trampoline, or favorite activity is worth the risk.

With pelvic floor physical therapy, the goal isn’t just stopping leaks.

It’s rebuilding trust with your body.

So you can:
✨ laugh freely
✨ move confidently
✨ do the things you love

Your body was built to support you.

Hormones and labs matter.

But your body is more than a number on a chart or a single moment in time.

Your pelvic floor.
Your nervous system.
Your breathing.
Your stress response.
Your movement.

All of these pieces influence how you feel in your body.

A whole-body approach means supporting the environment your body is working in. This is what we offer at Breathe., because you deserve care that sees the whole picture. 💛

You’ve probably tried:

More water.
A massage.
A heating pad.
Pushing through.

But if headaches keep showing up, it may be worth looking deeper.

Your body holds stress in ways you may not notice:

• clenched jaw
• tense shoulders
• shallow breathing
• muscles working overtime

Your symptoms are not “just in your head," and you don't have to push through.

💛 Relief starts with understanding the why. At Breathe. we practice root-cause PT to fix the symptoms and what's causing them!

You stretch your back.

You massage your back.

You rest your back.

But the ache always returns.

Why?

Because pain is often where your body is asking for attention — not always where the problem starts.

Sometimes we need to look at:
✨ hip mobility
✨ core support
✨ posture
✨ breathing patterns
✨ daily movement

These symptoms aren't random, it's your body communicating. We can help you figure out what it’s trying to tell you.

You’re not “bad at relaxing.”

You’re carrying a lot.

The mental load.
The physical load.
The constant switching between everyone else’s needs.

And eventually your body starts showing it:

• tight shoulders
• headaches
• shallow breathing
• jaw tension
• pelvic floor tightness
• feeling wired but exhausted

Sometimes your body isn’t asking you to push harder.

It’s asking for a signal that you’re safe.

💛 Your nervous system deserves care too.

You’re feeding your baby…

But who’s supporting YOU?

Many moms push through:
• neck pain
• shoulder tension
• back aches
• painful feeding positions

Because they assume it’s just part of the process, but it doesn’t have to be.

Small changes in positioning, posture, and body support can make a huge difference. We can help!

💛 Your comfort matters too, mama.

happens, that hope and inspiration is turned right back
