Behind the scenes of our mentoring! ✨

In this particular mentoring session, our team is learning about how to test for where the body is protecting: the central nervous system, the viscera (which organ?) or the musculoskeletal system.

We are always learning and growing to support you better!! We pride ourselves in figuring out the WHY behind your symptoms— so many of our patients have been to dozens of providers without answers — and we are determined to learn, grow, think outside of the box and elevate our clinical skills to help the tricky cases no one else can solve!!

If you’re in Richmond, VA and dealing with tricky pain, come see us! We’d love to help you.

And if you’re a physical therapist who loves learning and wants to grow in a supportive, high-level clinical environment — we’re hiring! Reach out to join our team ❤️

Let’s talk about 💩 constipation 💩—because it’s more common than you think and pelvic floor PT can help in ways you might not expect.

If you’re:
🚽 Straining to p**p
🔁 Needing to change positions just to “go”
🧻 Never feeling fully empty
💊 Relying on laxatives more than you’d like
…it could be more than just diet or hydration.

Your pelvic floor muscles play a huge role in bowel movements.
If they’re too tight or not coordinating properly, they can make it harder to fully relax and let go (literally).

Pelvic PT can help you:
✨ Learn how to relax the pelvic floor
✨ Coordinate your breath, core, and bowel mechanics
✨ Use positioning and movement to make p**ping easier
✨ Get back to regular, strain-free bathroom trips

You don’t have to just “live with it.” Your gut deserves peace, too. 💛

Behind the scenes of more of our mentoring:

Here we are learning movement to engage the abs, shoulders, hips, and pelvic floor through functional movement that we ALL need when we are walking, running, playing rotational sports — and basically, doing life!

If you are frustrated with annoying back pain, pelvic symptoms, neck pain, or leaking... this is our thing!!

We LOVE helping active people and combine the latest and greatest pelvic floor knowledge + an orthopedic lens to solve problems... once and for all!

And of course, we are using technology to connect our West End team and our Fan team!

Whatever your summer has in store for you, you deserve to do it — without pain!

If you are 30+, you have probably accumulated enough injuries through sports, athletics, and life that you need some support with.

That is what we DO. 💪

Dr. Kelley started RVA Holistic PT 5 years ago when she herself needed physical therapy for severe back pain and foot numbness, as a mom of 3, still breastfeeding, and could NOT find great physical therapists that could nail the orthopedic aspect as well as the fact that she had 3 big babies and extended breastfeeding.

So she created one and RVA Holistic PT was born! ✨

Since then, we’ve been helping people move better, feel stronger and truly understand what’s going on in their bodies.

If you or someone close to you, has been quietly dealing with pain… come see us. We’re here to listen, and help you heal.

Leaking when you sneeze, run, or lift isn’t just “part of getting older” or something you should just live with.

It’s your body waving a little white flag saying:
“Hey, I need support down here!” 🚩

This kind of leakage is called stress urinary incontinence, and it usually means your pelvic floor and core aren’t coordinating well under pressure.

It could be due to:
🔸 Weak or underactive pelvic floor muscles
🔸 A tight pelvic floor that can’t relax properly
🔸 Breathing strategies that increase intra-abdominal pressure
🔸 Postpartum recovery that never quite got… finished

✨ The good news?
This is treatable. You are not broken. And pelvic floor physical therapy can help—without you having to give up movement or your favorite workouts.

💬 Swipe the carousel to learn what’s going on and how we can help you move, lift, laugh, and sneeze without a second thought.

✨ 5 Signs You Might Need a Pelvic Floor PT (Even If You Haven’t Had a Baby)

Spoiler: pelvic floor issues aren’t just a postpartum thing.

If you’re leaking when you laugh, feeling pressure “down there,” or dealing with pain during intimacy, your body might be trying to tell you it needs support.

In this carousel, we break down 5 common signs that your pelvic floor might not be functioning optimally—and how pelvic PT can help 💪

👀 What we cover:

1️⃣ Leaking with activity
2️⃣ Pelvic heaviness or pressure
3️⃣ Pain with s*x or tampons
4️⃣ Constant urge to p*e
5️⃣Dealing with constipation

If any of these sound familiar, know this: you are not broken, and you’re definitely not alone.

Pelvic floor therapy can help you feel stronger, more connected, and more at home in your body again. 🧡
