How many times have you had a medical professional tell you:

😣Your pain is "normal"
🫣Your ache is "common"
🙄That's just something that comes with "getting older"
😢We can't find a "cause"
💉"Try this": pill, exploratory surgery, MRI, CT, etc. etc. etc.

After a traumatic birth, Molly felt so confused about how to care for and recover confidence, strength and control in her body.

She was told this was just the way it had to be.

She thought: "If I don't know how to do this with all my PT education, how the heck are other women supposed to?"

And from that curosity, confusion (and conviction), Breathe. was born.

A place that does so much more than "fix" your discomfort with a bandaid or a textbook suggestion.

🧐You are not a case study and your pain point deserves more than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Breathe. exists to be that space where you feel supported and seen (and actually get better!)

Come in, kick off your shoes, experience a different kind of care.

😫 You've seen all the providers
😵‍💫 You've researched all the things

And despite this ..

❌ You're still uncomfortable in your body

But deep down you know there's an alternative. You know that feeling strong and confident -- regaining energy and control -- and saying YES to all the things you want are possible.

It's okay to feel discouraged. It's okay to feel tired. It's okay to be frustrated with the lack of answers and solutions.

And when you are ready, Breathe. is the alternative you've been searching for. Just like Samantha, you CAN feel optimistic and motivated about a path to less pain.

Come see us. So you can run and jump and play and work and sit and travel and walk through this Iowa winter wonderland feeling like the strongest, most comfortable version of yourself.

Help is just one click away. https://bit.ly/4aMcvdw

From Queen of the Throne to Queen of the Clinics. 9 years ago Breathe. became a reality in a tiny, three-room clinic in the heart of Beaverdale.

That's where dreams and visions turned into conversations, connections, and so many women healed.

Today we've grown to two clinics and two regions (Des Moines and North Liberty), we've impacted the lives of over 10,000 individuals (✅ a business bucket list item), and we continue to be reminded of our why.

To provide care that meets people where they are: through all the phases and stages of womanhood.

So that all women feel heard, and so that all women feel hopeful about getting back energy, strength, confidence and control in their bodies.

And yes .. we're still just as passionate about teaching them all how to p**p.

Shoutout to Squatty Potty for being along for the ride!

😬 Jaw pain isn’t just about your teeth—it’s about muscles, posture, and breathing!

Several muscles can contribute to jaw tension and discomfort, including:
1️⃣ Masseter – primary chewing muscle
2️⃣ Temporalis – helps close the jaw
3️⃣ Digastric – assists in opening the jaw
4️⃣ SCM (sternocleidomastoid) – neck muscle that can refer tension to jaw and head

Physical therapy can help by:
✨ Using techniques like dry needling (DN) to release tight muscles
✨ Teaching diaphragm breathing to reduce tension
✨ Helping decrease excessive mouth breathing, which can worsen jaw strain

💡 With a personalized PT approach, you can reduce pain, improve function, and restore comfort in your jaw, neck, and even posture.

👉 Have you ever noticed your jaw tension getting worse with stress or poor posture?

At Breathe, we see patients for so much more than pelvic floor concerns! 🌿

If you’ve been struggling with any of these, you don’t have to just “live with it.” Physical therapy can help you get back to feeling like yourself again. 💪✨

🤰 Pressure management during pregnancy sets you up for an easier recovery postpartum.

One simple strategy: learn to exhale with movement.
💡 Practice while rolling in bed—coordinating your breath with motion helps your core and pelvic floor work efficiently.

This skill translates to daily activities postpartum, like:

Lifting your baby

Carrying a car seat

Managing household tasks

✨ Learning to breathe with movement reduces strain on your pelvic floor, improves core coordination, and supports safer lifting and mobility.

👉 Have you tried exhaling with movement before?
