About The Mama Clinic

What makes The Mama Clinic Different?

The Mama Clinic is dedicated to supporting women through their fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum journey. We are here for you whether your goal is to lift your infant without pain, return to high level sports, optimizing fertility, enjoy intercourse, or preparing for labor.

At The Mama Clinic, we are here to listen and understand your story fully. When creating a healing program, we consider your lifestyle, mental health, your cycle, along with your physical body.

We are unique by providing ample time and attention to your needs. When you work with us we collaborate together to create a plan to support your health and wellness goals.

How do I know I’m getting the best care?

The Mama Clinic is passionate about this specialty, and it’s all we do so we can focus on providing the most up-to-date care.

We consider more than just the pelvic floor. We take a look at your lifestyle and how it is impacting your pelvic health and wellness.

What sets us apart?

A few things make treatment at The Mama Clinic very different.

Specialty Care – Every clinician at our practice works exclusively in pelvic health and has extensive post-graduate training
Hour-Long Sessions – All our sessions are full-length with the specialist. You’ll never see an aide, student or someone ‘dabbling’ in pelvic health.
‘Finding the Why’ – Instead of just looking at the pelvic floor, we take a whole body approach to resolve symptoms and ‘find the why’ so they don’t return.

Can We Help?

Can you treat me problem?

The short answer is yes! We specialize exclusively in pelvic health issues and have just about seen it all. We’ve never had someone come in for an evaluation with pelvic health symptoms that couldn’t benefit from treatment.

But if you have questions, make sure to give us a call! We’re happy to answer them (you’ll talk with a real human), and your specialist at The Mama Clinic will quarterback your care. We work with the best providers in the area if you do need other treatments or medications to augment your treatment with us.

I’ve been to pelvic PT before, can you still help?

Absolutely! Almost 70% of our patients have been to other facilities. We have a unique treatment approach and advanced techniques – it will be a very different experience than another facility.

Can’t I “just Kegel”?

Actually, no! Most of the time Kegels or pelvic floor contractions aren’t the right course of action (and often can make things worse). And they never resolve the underlying ‘why’. Your treatment plan is going to be about a lot more than ‘just Kegel’!

What is my first appointment like?

You’ll be greeted by our team as soon as you arrive and your physical therapist will show you your private treatment room. You’ll be able to share your story, symptoms and goals without feeling rushed.

You’ll get a thorough, head-to-toe assessment. You’ll receive treatment on the first day, and you’ll leave with an ‘Action Plan’ for going forward for how to meet your desired outcomes.

We know coming to pelvic floor therapy can be intimidating – you’ll be taken care of throughout your time at The Mama Clinic and make sure you’re comfortable throughout your treatment with us.

Logistics

Will I get to see the same specialist each visit?

Absolutely! You’ll be working with a specialist who knows your case and body, and we will never switch your appointment to another provider for our own convenience.

Do I need to prescription from my physician?

No, you can just schedule your evaluation! We will send information over to your physician so they are aware we are working with you, but you don’t have to jump through hoops to get started.

Will I see an aid or student during my session?

Absolutely not! You’ll work 1:1 with a dedicated expert the time entire you’re at The Mama Clinic. That’s the gold standard of care.

How long are appointments?

Each of our appointments is a full hour. We also offer two-hour appointments for those who want to ‘put their foot on the gas’, have complex conditions or are driving from far away for treatment.

How long is your waitlist?

We strive to see our patients as soon as possible – if you have to wait months for treatment, it’s not helpful! We never want our schedule to be the limiting factor. Depending on your flexibility, we can usually get patients in within 2-3 weeks, and often within the same week if possible.

Do you have flexibility times available?

Yes! Our first appointments are at 7 AM and our last appointments are at 3:45 PM to accommodate as many schedules as possible. If you have a specific day or time you need, we will book out your appointments to ensure you always have a spot that works for you.

How do I get started?

Just give our office a call (512-881-9160)! We can answer any other questions you have and find a time for your initial evaluation. You don’t need a prescription or any testing to get started, we will do our own full evaluation of your case.
