Still in Pain After Trying Everything?
Pelvic pain, leakage, and postpartum symptoms don't just go away on their own — and cookie-cutter treatment has probably already let you down. Here's what most people experience before they find us.
Dismissed or Misdiagnosed
You've been told your pain is "normal" or had test after test come back inconclusive. The real dysfunction — your pelvic floor — was never properly assessed.
Rotating Providers, No Real Plan
Traditional PT clinics cycle you through assistants and techs with generic exercises that don't address why you hurt. You leave with a printout and no lasting change.
Told to Just Stop
Stop running. Stop lifting. Stop doing the things that make you feel like yourself. We believe that's the wrong answer — and we've helped hundreds of active people prove it.

“I came to Dr. Matt after dealing with metatarsalgia pain for over a year that forced me to stop running completely. After my first visit, I finally felt like I had a plan. The exercises he gave me each week actually made a difference. I can run again and enjoy being active without constantly worrying about pain.”
“After giving birth, I struggled with extreme lower back pain and felt totally out of sync with my body. Signing up for pelvic floor physical therapy changed everything. By session 5, I felt noticeably better—and by session 10, I was 95% healed. This experience was truly life-changing.”
“I was looking for a physio that would not only get me running again but would help me because I keep getting injured. APP&P did detailed analysis of where I was weak and gave me exercises to strengthen those areas. If you’re a runner who keeps getting injured, I recommend booking with these guys. The best physical therapy advice I have received!”
