What we treat · Rib Flare
You’ve been treating the surface
That flared look in your ribs signals deeper core and breathing dysfunction that’s limiting your brace, your recovery, and how strong you feel when you move.
Rib flare usually gets treated like a posture flaw to suck in or fix with a quick cue. But it’s really a breathing and pressure pattern that’s quietly limiting your brace, your recovery, and how you move.
If no one has connected your ribs, your breath, and your pelvic floor, you’ve only ever been treating the surface.
A different model
Why choose Pelvic Confidence
You don’t have to choose between fixing the mechanics and feeling strong in your workouts again. Most care chases the symptom; most programs miss it entirely. This is different.
Fixing the mechanics is the means, not the end. We bridge rib-and-breath work to how you actually feel moving, a brace that holds and a core that supports you, whether you’re in the gym or working out at home.
Pelvic rehab + strength training
Rib flare is a whole-system pattern. Your plan connects breath, ribs, and pelvic floor with full-body strength, so your brace works and your workouts feel better, not just a temporary posture cue.
Specialized pelvic floor PT
Not every PT who hands out pelvic exercises is a pelvic floor specialist. Your care starts with a comprehensive evaluation and fully personalized 1:1 treatment, from someone who actually understands how an active woman moves and trains.
Built around your life
Most clients meet with me just 1-2 times a month, in person in Lincoln Park, Chicago or fully online, your choice. You won't rearrange your life around weekly appointments; you'll have a program to follow between sessions, form videos, and direct messaging with me to keep you moving forward.
The difference
Why it's worth it
Most pelvic floor care stops at "do your Kegels." Here's what working with me looks like next to a traditional clinic.
Care built for how you train
- Pelvic rehab and full-body strength, fully integrated
- A provider who lifts and understands how you train
- A personalized 1:1 evaluation and programming
- A plan to follow between visits, plus ongoing coaching
- 1-2 visits a month, built around your schedule
- In person in Lincoln Park or 100% online
- Back to the workouts you love, at the gym or at home
- Transparent, upfront pricing, no surprise bills (HSA/FSA eligible)
Care that stops at the symptom
- Pelvic floor treated in isolation
- Generic pelvic exercises that never progress past the basics
- One-size-fits-all protocols
- No real support until your next appointment
- Weekly in-clinic appointments to keep up with
- In person only
- Symptom relief, not your whole active life
- Insurance copays & repeat visits that add up, often costing more
Simple from the start
What working together looks like
Book a consultation
We start with a short conversation to understand what's going on, what your goals are, and whether this approach is the right fit. You'll leave with clarity, not a sales pitch.
Evaluation
Your first visit is a full pelvic floor and movement assessment. We look at how your pelvic floor, breathing, strength, and movement patterns work together to find the real drivers of your symptoms. For in-person care, this can include an internal pelvic floor exam, but it's always optional.
Your personalized plan
From there, we build a plan that integrates pelvic rehab, strength training, and ongoing coaching so you keep progressing between sessions. Most clients meet with me 1-2 times a month, in person or online.

Every season, supported
Every stage. One coach. Zero guesswork.
I work with women across every stage of their reproductive health journey, from trying to conceive through menopause and everything in between. Your care evolves as you do.
TTC
Build a proactive foundation before baby. Optimize pelvic function, dial in your training, and set your body up to handle what's coming, not react to it.
Pregnancy
Stay strong, stay active, stay confident. Trimester-specific programming that evolves with your body, not a generic "prenatal yoga" plan.
Postpartum
This is where most women get lost. I guide you from early recovery to fully back to the activities you love, progressively, safely, without fear-mongering.
Beyond
Perimenopause, menopause, or just life after kids, your pelvic floor and how strong you feel don't stop mattering. Neither does your coaching.
Your turn
Let's stop putting this off
You've been dealing with this long enough. Whether you're trying to conceive, staying strong through pregnancy, rebuilding postpartum, or navigating perimenopause and beyond, your body deserves support that's actually built for how you live.
No more generic advice. No more wondering if what you're doing is helping or making things worse, just a clear plan, a provider who gets it, and a path forward that finally makes sense.
