Help Laura Rebuild After Sudden Loss and Health Setbacks
Important update regarding Laura’s health and its impact on scheduled appointments
Recently, I have been undergoing medical evaluation, and upon consultation with my doctor, it has been strongly advised that I prioritize rest and recovery to ensure the best outcome for my health. In light of this advice, I will be taking a temporary hiatus from work effective immediately until the end of April. During this time, my focus will be on recuperating and receiving the necessary treatment.
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Please rest assured that someone will be in touch with you ASAP to reschedule any appointments that have been affected by this change/you may have already received an email from the Jane app with instructions on what to do. Your pelvic floor health is important, and I understand that waiting for my return might not be ideal for you. Therefore, I have made arrangements for another skilled pelvic floor physiotherapist to take on clients during my absence. More information will be provided when you are contacted regarding the rescheduling of your appointments.
Your understanding and support during this time mean a great deal to me. I am committed to maintaining the quality of service you expect, and I look forward to returning to work with renewed energy and focus.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Pelvic Floor and Core Health
support + guidance
for all humans
Adult | Children | Youth
You deserve to enjoy life.
Whether you’re experiencing unpredictable leaks, constipation, or pain,
I’m here to help you navigate (or pinpoint) a diagnosis.
I’ll work to help you understand why you’re experiencing symptoms and
come up with a plan to improve your quality of life.
The Process
The Assessment
-
Gather Information
develop a clear understanding of your concerns + symptoms
-
EMG Biofeedback
technology that’s useful in assessing pelvic floor concerns
-
Exams + Palpation
when needed, utilize internal vaginal and/or rectal exams + abdominal palpation to aid in diagnosis
-
Education
equip our clients with the knowledge they need to understand what’s happening in their body, why it’s happening, and how to improve their symptoms
The Rehabilitation Plan
-
Real-Time Ultrasound (RTUS)
technology used to help clients feel and practice the contraction and release of specific muscles
-
Proprioceptive Training
in-session coaching on how to contract and release specific muscles and muscle groups
-
Rehabilitative + Preventative Exercises
a two-pronged approach of rehabilitative exercises (improve current symptoms) and preventative exercises (reduce the likelihood of a recurrence and additional symptoms) to improve short- and long-term recovery
-
Communication
ongoing communication and follow-up
My Commitment
I actively work to create a safe and welcoming environment for all community members.
I’m passionate about supporting and serving marginalized folks,
such as the 2SLGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent communities,
as well as those engaging in non-traditional relationship models.
My goal is for each human to feel safe and comfortable to be themselves,
however that may look for them, and to feel supported in
receiving the care that they need for pelvic floor and core health.
