Nurturing Wellness Physical Therapy
About me
Nurturing Wellness Physical Therapy was created to provide highly skilled, holistic orthopedic and pelvic health perinatal care. Too often mothers are neglected once baby arrives, I am here to fill in that gap! Even as you wait for the 6 week check-in from the medical doctor I offer care via telehealth, in-home, or in my clinic. As a physical therapist in Rhode Island for 13+ years and after my own pregnancies and deliveries I realized the need for custom and passionate care for moms. I pursued my certification from the Institute for Birth Healing to become a certified Holistic Birth Healing Specialist. I am also a Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist. I love to provide birth preparation education to help you with labor and delivery positions and help you achieve your birth plan.
