October Spotlight - Building Confidence in Your Body with Dr. Michelle Sieffert

I was so grateful to get to sit down with to discuss the partnership between pelvic floor therapy and plastic surgery to help people build more confidence in the function and aesthetics of their body!

We focused our discussion primarily around postpartum people experiencing diastasis rectus abdominus (DRA) and Dr. Sieffert shares with us what to expect with an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) in terms of post operative recovery time frames, what is done in the actual procedures and what most people were surprised about afterwards.

We also touched on a little on the “mom guilt” people experience when taking time for themselves and the need to combat this in order for us to serve others.

Please see below for more information on and what brought her down this path of support for our community:

Experiencing UTI-like symptoms but no infection? It could be pelvic floor dysfunction.

At Core Strong Physical Therapy, we take a holistic, whole-body approach to healing.

Our pelvic floor specialists are trained to identify the root cause of bladder discomfort, urgency, or pain and create individualized treatment plans for lasting relief. Through hands-on care, movement retraining, and nervous system regulation, we help restore balance and confidence in your body—without the guesswork or one-size-fits-all approach.

Last week, our Core Strong Physical Therapy team had the privilege of attending Beyond the Conventional: A Holistic Approach to Caregiving—an inspiring community event dedicated to those who care for loved ones living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

The day focused on supporting caregiver well-being through evidence-based strategies like improving sleep, incorporating restorative yoga, and practicing mindfulness to reduce stress and prevent burnout.

We were deeply moved by the shared wisdom and compassion in the room, reminding us that caring for others begins with caring for ourselves.

Connecting with local healthcare and wellness professionals who share our values reinforced our belief that collaboration amplifies healing. (Check out these tagged resources😊)

Together, we’re strengthening the network of support for patients and families in our community.

We left feeling grateful, inspired, and committed to bringing these insights back into our practice to continue uplifting caregivers in the important work they do every day.

Special thanks to and for including us in such a wonderful event!

So honored to have been able to sponsor the P.A.I.L Awareness and Remembrance Walk yesterday.

Thank you to our hosts , , and for this incredibly supportive and heartfelt event to bring together families who have lost their babies.

On a personal note, Ryan and I had 3 losses before our rainbow baby arrived 8 years ago and we would have given anything to have known about and had support like this back then, which is why I feel so strongly about highlighting these organizations and events.

I know my experience is not unique, as many families have suffered loss, but it took me a long time to face what we went through without the sterile and medical mindset around the physiology of miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy. To open the door emotionally to what a mother feels immediately upon seeing a positive pregnancy test to then seeing that future ripped away was just too much for me to face for many years.

Yesterday was full of tears and hugs and support and I’m eternally grateful for this event and to my team for being there with me as I continue on this healing journey 💕

Also, had a fun time hanging out with these deer 😂

Birth trauma can impact the birthing person, partner, and baby. Even without medical complications, feelings of fear, loss of control, or lack of support during labor can lead to pelvic pain, anxiety, and emotional distress.

Trauma-informed pelvic floor therapy helps restore safety, improve pelvic health, and support postpartum healing.

By addressing both physical recovery and the nervous system, clients can reconnect with their bodies and feel empowered again.

Contact us to learn how compassionate pelvic floor therapy supports recovery after a difficult birth.

I’m so excited to share some wonderful news—our team is growing!

Please welcome to the practice Dr. Carrigan Hatia, Doctor of Occupational Therapy, who is officially completing her final week of training to learn our systems and tech so that she is ready to hit the ground running with patient care on 9/10/25!

From the moment you meet her, you’ll notice her compassion, understanding, and the way she makes you feel completely at ease (yes—even when talking about the pelvic floor!).

Her knowledge and clinical reasoning skills are outstanding, and her fun personality brings a lightness to the healing process.

With Dr. Carrigan joining us, we’ll finally be able to shorten our two-month waitlist so that more people can begin their pelvic health journey sooner.

Please check our more about Dr. Carrigan at www.corestrongphysicaltherapy.com/meet-the-team

Did you know that the best birth prep starts before labor begins?

Proactive preparation can lead to a smoother, more empowered birth experience.

By working with a pelvic floor therapist, you can improve mobility, balance your body, and reduce tension that may interfere with labor.

We also help you build body awareness, manage stress, and prepare your mind and support team. Whether you’re pregnant or planning to be, now is the time to start preparing. Your body already knows what to do—let’s help it do just that. 💪✨

I am so excited to share with you our August Spotlight, ! Vitality is a functional medicine practice that focuses on the complete you. At Vitality, a whole-body approach to your care by combining nutrition, lifestyle, aesthetics, and cutting-edge medical therapies designed to help restore and revitalize you is of the utmost importance.

I have been so grateful to collaborate with the group to help diagnose and treat underlying hormonal and GI conditions to help patients find the whole body healing they are seeking.

The practice houses multiple practitioners including Dr. Melissa McRae (practice owner and practitioner) and Nurse Practitioners Nicole Schneider, Lana Hetzel and Christy LaRoche and has locations here in Powell and also in Mansfield.

Big thanks to Nicole for taking the time to share a bit about how she practices in this setting. Stay tuned for a pre-recorded interview with Nicole and Lana to learn a bit more about how functional medicine is different 😊

Name: Nicole Schneider, MS, APRN, AGPCNP-C

Practice/Business Name: Vitality Natural Wellness

Field of Expertise: I’m an Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner, and I work in functional medicine — which basically means I dig deeper to figure out why you’re not feeling your best instead of just treating symptoms.

Who I Help: I work with people who feel dismissed or unheard in the traditional healthcare system. If you’ve been told “your labs look good” or “everything is normal” — but you know something’s not right — you’re exactly who I’m here for.

What I Love About What I Do: I love working alongside patients, giving them the tools, education, and confidence to take back their health. Whether it’s gut health, hormones, inflammation, stress…. we will get to the bottom of it! Watching someone go from feeling stuck to absolutely thriving… that’s the best part of my job!
