Dry needling is a treatment we use to help improve blood flow and oxygen to the tissue. The needle creates a very small, controlled irritation in the muscle, which starts a chain reaction in the body to help with healing. It should feel like a quick pinch that settles into a deep, dull ache.

People often ask how this is different from acupuncture. I’m not an acupuncturist. Acupuncture is based on traditional Chinese medicine and focuses on energy flow, or chi, through specific pathways called meridians. The goal there is to affect the body through energy balance.

Dry needling is different. I place the needles based on nerves, muscles, and anatomy-basically how your body is wired. The technique may look similar, but the training, reasoning, and goals are different.

Dry needling is part of my advanced doctoral-level training and is used to support and build on the rest of your physical therapy treatment.

Not chasing who I was, just showing up for who I am now. Postpartum strength starts with choosing you. A strong foundation to be able to continue to chase our kids

Postpartum Rebuild isn’t just a fitness class. It’s a high-trust, postpartum-specific space built around what moms actually need - not what a traditional gym thinks you need.

✨ You can bring your baby.
Not a perk - a lifeline. Removing the childcare barrier is why you can consistently show up. Mom of multiples? Those bigs are in school and you get some quality time with the little one!

✨ You’re supervised by a pelvic floor PT.
Your body deserves more than generic cues. You get expert eyes on your movement so you can rebuild safely and confidently. Sure, anyone can host a postpartum class, going through pregnancy and postpartum doesn’t make them a postpartum recovery expert!

✨ It’s mid-day for a reason.
Less chaos of adjusting schedules! You have some time in the morning but not too late to eat up your entire day. Mid-day is when this season of life actually works. As a mom I get the 3 pm car shuttle service and the later evenings to actually spend time with your family!

This class exists because postpartum bodies deserve support that matches real life - not a schedule built for people without babies. Come create community with me 🙂

Here to support you, however you show up 🤍

I’ve done just about every flavor of PT you can think of -ortho, neuro, sports, acute, outpatient, you name it. If it existed, I probably had a toe in it at some point.

But nothing cracked me open like having kids.

Suddenly I realized just how little support there really is for pregnancy, postpartum, and pelvic pain. It wasn’t that the problems didn’t exist -it was that the care wasn’t there. And that lit something up in me.

So I signed up for a pelvic health course.
Sat through that first day.
And I swear, something shifted.

I left that room thinking, “Oh. This. This is what I’m supposed to be doing.”
It was fascinating, it was challenging, it was necessary -and I couldn’t get enough. One class turned into another… and another… and another.

And that was the turning point.
The day I stopped dabbling and actually stepped into the work I was meant to do.

Pelvic health chose me as much as I chose it - and I’ve never looked back.

Day in the life:
Mom-ing
chatting with Dr. Disha .pt.pilates (it’s so nice to have business owner friends who just get it).
Saw lots of clients
Stuck some needles
Hopped on a zoom with (guys, she’s SO great!)
Taught Anatomy for 3 hours
Home to my babies.

Tuesdays are long but I love this little life!

Hey, I’m Betsy, Owner of PIPT, Doctor of Physical Therapy, pelvic health specialist, athletic trainer, and certified lactation counselor.

I work with women across the lifespan- from pre-teens to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause and the high level athletes who refuse to be told to “slow down.”

Positive Impact was born from my irritation with the fear-based nonsense women are fed. No more ‘don’t do this in pregnancy’ or ‘avoid that postpartum.’ Instead: here’s HOW to move, lift, train, jump, and live - safely, confidently and without apology.

My care is fitness-forward and way more than just table exercises. This is honest treatment with fewer barriers, individualized plans, and absolutely zero fear-mongering.

Physical therapy isn’t just for pain - it’s for those who want to improve, get strong, and return to impact at whatever level.

I’m here to build a community rooted in women’s health, empowerment, and truth-telling. Your treatment is centered on YOU, your goals, and what ‘performance’ means in your life.

This is rehab for performance… not just getting by.

If you’re sitting on HSA/FSA money and still settling for rushed, insurance-controlled care… why? You can use those dollars for out-of-network, one-on-one, actually-focused-on-YOU care. And with the year wrapping up, those funds aren’t growing interest - they’re just waiting to be used. Let them work for you before the clock runs out and get the kind of care you actually deserve.

Showing up everyone around you is easier when you show up for yourself first.

Rebuild is this that. A space to show up for yourself so you don’t have to pour from an empty cup.

come as you are, take what you need, keep moving forward.

Still dealing with that low back pain?

Here’s the thing, it may not just be all about your low back.
You’ve tried stretching, core work, yoga- all the things.
The missing piece may be your pelvic floor.
It plays a huge role in how your back stays supported.

Back pain and pelvic symptoms aren’t just for those who have kids, so even if you’re a guy, a young athlete or a grandma- it may be your pelvic floor & we can do something about it.

This one-time, interactive workshop is designed for anyone who’s pregnant - whether you’re in your first trimester or counting down the weeks.

We’ll go beyond the typical hospital-style birth prep and dive into what your body actually needs to move, breathe, and feel strong through pregnancy, labor, and recovery.

Led by a pelvic floor physical therapist, this workshop combines education, movement, and practical takeaways to help you:

    •    Understand how your core and pelvic floor change during pregnancy
    •    Learn breathing + pressure management strategies to support labor
    •    Move safely and confidently as your body grows
    •    Prevent common aches, pains, and leaks
    •    Feel empowered and connected to your changing body
You’ll walk away with simple tools, exercises, and confidence — not just for birth, but for the months leading up to it.
