It’s heartbreaking how many women have spent years believing that pain, discomfort, and changes in their bodies are simply things they’re expected to tolerate. We’ve heard from women who thought leaking after childbirth was inevitable, who were told their debilitating periods were normal, or who assumed painful in*******se was just something they had to learn to live with. And when you’ve heard those things enough times, it’s understandable that you eventually stop questioning them.

As pelvic floor therapists, we want women to understand that common doesn’t always mean normal, and symptoms are rarely as simple as having a weak pelvic floor. Your muscles, hormones, nervous system, and medical history all play a role in how your body functions. Sometimes treatment involves strengthening, sometimes it involves learning to release tension, and sometimes it means looking deeper for an underlying condition.

You deserve to feel comfortable asking questions about your body, even the ones you’ve been embarrassed to ask before. And more than anything, you deserve to be taken seriously when something doesn’t feel right. 🤍

“Omg I have to p*e all the time, I just have a small bladder!” 👀 We hear this almost everyday, but what you think is a small bladder might actually be an overactive bladder, and it’s something we’ve normalized way too much!

Frequent urgency can happen for several reasons, including pelvic floor muscle tension, bladder irritants like caffeine, learned bathroom habits (hello, “just in case” p*eing), or changes in how your bladder communicates with your brain.

Thankfully there are techniques like the ones above you can try to combat it! We are also always here to help if an overactive bladder is something interfering with your day to day life 🤍

With Dr. Macy getting ready to welcome her little one and head off on maternity leave, and Dr. Ivy spending a little more time at home with her kiddos while focusing on the behind the scenes of running Empower, you’ll be seeing a whole lot more of two very special faces around the clinic!

Dr. Camryn and Dr. Ashley are the wonderful women who will be taking on more of our patient care! 🫶🏼

🌸 Dr. Camryn is our adventure-loving, beach-going, always-on-the-move girl! Originally from Orange County, she grew up surfing, hiking, and spending as much time outdoors as possible. She’s especially passionate about supporting women through pregnancy and postpartum, as well as helping our littlest patients through pediatric pelvic floor therapy. When she’s not at Empower, she’s probably planning her next trip, finding a new hiking trail, or soaking up some sunshine at the beach!

🌸 Dr. Ashley is a San Diego girl through and through! With a background in sports medicine and orthopedics, she brings a unique perspective to pelvic floor therapy and loves helping women feel strong and confident in their bodies. Outside the clinic, you’ll find her by the ocean, trying a new restaurant around San Diego, or hanging out with her husband and their pup, Teddy!

We’re so grateful to have a team of women who genuinely love what they do and care so deeply about the families who trust us with their care.

We couldn’t be more excited for this season of growth, motherhood, and new beginnings, and we know you’re going to love getting to know these two even more! 🤍

We know that the idea of using a pelvic wand or dilator can feel a little intimidating, especially when you’re already experiencing pain with in*******se. 🤍 The thought of introducing something into an area that’s been causing you discomfort might even feel completely counterintuitive, and we understand why!

But here’s something we want you to know: these tools aren’t about pushing through pain or forcing your body to tolerate something uncomfortable. When used appropriately, pelvic wands and dilators can help address pelvic floor muscle tension, gradually improve tolerance to pe*******on, and rebuild confidence in your body. And you don’t have to figure out how to use them on your own.

At Empower, we take the time to explain every step, answer the questions you might feel embarrassed to ask, and help you become comfortable with these tools at a pace that feels right for YOU. We’ll never pressure you into a treatment you’re not ready for, and your comfort and consent will always come first.

Painful in*******se is something we help patients navigate regularly, and we want you to know that there’s absolutely nothing embarrassing about asking for help. You deserve intimacy that feels comfortable, safe, and enjoyable, and we’d love to help you work toward that.

If you have endometriosis, you probably know how exhausting it can be to live with pain that feels unpredictable, frustrating, and sometimes impossible to explain. And what many women don’t realize is that even when endometriosis is being medically managed, their pelvic floor muscles may still be contributing to the discomfort they’re experiencing.

When your body spends months or even years anticipating pain, your pelvic floor muscles can develop a protective habit of tightening and guarding. Over time, that tension can contribute to painful in*******se, bowel and bladder symptoms, and persistent pelvic discomfort. This is where pelvic floor physical therapy can make a difference! Through gentle manual therapy, relaxation techniques, and individualized movement, we can help address some of the muscular components of your pain.

We know how discouraging it can feel when you’ve tried so many things and still aren’t finding relief. While pelvic floor therapy isn’t a cure for endometriosis, it can be an incredibly valuable part of your care.

You deserve providers who listen, take your symptoms seriously, and help you explore every appropriate avenue for feeling better. If you’re navigating endometriosis, we’d love to support you at Empower. 🤍

Feeling extra grateful for the women who make Empower what it is. 🤍

We truly couldn’t ask for a more compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely wonderful team. Every person here brings something special to the table, but what we all share is a love for helping women and children feel heard, understood, and supported in their bodies.

From pregnancy and postpartum to navigating pelvic pain, bladder concerns, childhood challenges, and all the changes that come with different seasons of life, we feel incredibly lucky to be a part of so many personal journeys. We know how vulnerable it can feel to ask for help, and having a team that cares just as deeply about the person as they do about the treatment makes all the difference.

We’re so proud of the environment we’ve created together, and even more grateful for the families who trust us with their care. We love what we do, and we really, really love who we get to do it with. 🥹🤍

One of our favorite things about working with kids is getting to turn something that might feel intimidating into something FUN. 🫧💗

If you walked into one of our pediatric pelvic floor therapy sessions, you might find us blowing bubbles, playing with balloons, or making silly noises with kazoos. And while it might look like we’re just playing, there’s actually a lot of intention behind it!

These activities help children practice controlled exhalation, breath coordination, and awareness of how their diaphragm, abdominal muscles, and pelvic floor work together.

Pediatric pelvic floor therapy can be incredibly helpful for children experiencing constipation, urinary accidents, bedwetting, difficulty emptying their bladder, and other bowel or bladder challenges.

We love working with kids because they remind us that learning about our bodies doesn’t have to feel clinical or overwhelming. When children feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely excited to participate, we can help them build skills and confidence that extend far beyond our treatment room.

If your little one is struggling with bowel or bladder symptoms, we’d love to help you understand how pediatric pelvic floor therapy could support them!

Things we DO care about?

That you feel heard, comfortable, respected, and confident in your body. 🤍 Pelvic floor therapy should feel like a safe space, not another place where you have to worry about being judged.
