We treat men, women and identities across the gender spectrum. All bodies can develop pelvic symptoms and we respect each person’s unique gender experience and relationship to their body.


Having pelvic floor symptoms can be scary, lonely, confusing and frustrating. We will meet you wherever you are in your journey, and help you get back to celebrating your body and all it can do.

Do you have a “small bladder” and hesitate to plan errands that don’t involve accessible bathrooms?

Is “being regular” a challenge when it comes to bowel movements? Do you have pain and straining when it is time to go?

Do you have digestive challenges like IBS, bloating or GERD?

Are you having unexplained pelvic floor, abdominal, hip or low back pain that just won’t go away? Have you tried everything for your pain without full or lasting relief?

Is your enjoyment of sex impacted by pain, lack of sensation or changes your body has recently gone through? 

Are you pregnant and unsure how to keep exercising safely or what exactly to do? Are you hoping to go into birth feeling confident and well-prepared both physically and mentally?

Have you given birth and need help with the healing process and getting back to the activities you love?

Are you a man experiencing pelvic pain, testicle pain, groin pain, erectile dysfunction, bowel and/or bladder symptoms and have other treatments failed to improve your experience?

Has navigating your gender in your body led to bowel or bladder symptoms, or pelvic pain?

If you relate to any of these scenarios, we can help!

Patient Testimonials

  • "I have had the pleasure of receiving care from both Abby and Laura. With Laura, I felt very safe and heard. She used gentle but effective hands-on techniques with me and I felt she "listened" well with her hands. She really helped me with the mind/body connection and I quickly learned how I hold my tension. With Abby, I appreciated the thorough assessment of my body (not just the pelvic muscles!) and she incorporated movements and exercises to help support my goals. I also felt really heard and she supported my body even further by diving into nutritional changes I could make." - Amanda S.

  • "Abigail Richards has been instrumental in my journey to recovery from pelvic floor issues stemming from intense triathlon training and childbirth. Her personable approach creates a comfortable atmosphere, making each session a positive experience. Abigail's expertise shines through in her highly effective techniques. I've noticed significant improvement in strength and overall well-being with each visit. I highly recommend Abigail to anyone seeking relief from pelvic floor discomfort or postpartum issues. Her professionalism and results-oriented approach make her a standout therapist in her field." - Megan R.

  • "I did multiple pelvic PT sessions with Laura and she is absolutely WONDERFUL. She is warm, friendly, kind and made me feel so SAFE. Very trauma-informed and made sure I was fully aware of what was happening at all times. I learned so much about my body and have gained a new way of thinking about my pelvic floor and the impact it has on my whole system. My bladder and IBS symptoms have dramatically improved. The experience also helped me heal some of my trauma as well. I highly recommend getting care at Mt Tabor Pelvic Therapy!" - Kristina D.
