Welcome to Thrive
It's different here....
Our clients continually tell us we're not like any other pelvic therapy practice they've been to, and here's why-
- We use a whole body, practical approach to care. No repetitive Kegels or countless internal exams lying on your back.
- We help you find a solution, not a bandaid. We will work with you to identify and understand the underlying cause of your symptoms and resolve the root issue, not just provide a one off treatment that temporarily masks your symptoms.
- We provide a warm, comfortable, welcoming space. No sterile medical environment here. No hospital gowns. No weird paper sheets sticking to your butt cheeks.
- We help you learn about and understand your body. You'll leave every visit feeling empowered with tools to help yourself, instead of feeling confused, unsure, and overwhelmed.
- No assistants, no revolving door of clinicians, no sharing your time, no rush. All appointments are one-on-one, hour long sessions with Laura. When you call, you get Laura. When you email, you get Laura.
- We are a reliable, accessible resource, that actually cares about you! We've got time to listen to your concerns, and can pivot our care to your individual needs on any given day. We're always available for questions and love to be a lasting resource. No referral required, no month long waitlist, no discharge before you're ready with a 'good luck and see ya never.'
Your pelvic health issues are disrupting your life. You deserve a practitioner who gets it.
Laura has a passion for doing pelvic health better! After working with patient after patient who said things like "I tried therapy before, but it didn't help", or "They told me surgery was my only option", or "I just thought it was normal and I had to live with it", Laura decided to start Thrive Pelvic Wellness with the mission of providing better pelvic health care. Laura understands there is a lack of truly effective, person centered, functional pelvic health care, and it's her goal to provide exactly that! Realistic, and practical solutions, dynamic exercise and activity, and personalized care that gets to the root of your symptoms, improves your quality of life, and gets you to back to enjoying what you love to do.
Being an Occupational Therapist with years of diverse experience, Laura looks at the big picture- the whole person and all aspects of their life. With a knack for creative problem solving, and advanced training from leaders in the pelvic health field, she will never tell you "that's not an option". If you've got a goal, she will find a way to get you there!
Laura is an experienced, compassionate, and patient clinician, with a no baloney attitude, fabulous sense of humor, and a love of all things science/health/movement/pelvis. She's a mom to 2 kids, a dog, and a flock of chickens, and has a pretty ok husband too. Laura earned her MS in Occupational Therapy from Sage Graduate School in 2008. She is also a certified yoga instructor and has taken multiple advanced pelvic health trainings from leaders in the pelvic health field.
