About Shannon DeSalvo, PT

Why Women's Health Physical Therapy?

Shannon DeSalvo completed her Physical Therapy degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1995. She found her passion for Women’s Health Physical Therapy just three years later when she was asked to develop a prenatal fitness program in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  

It was then that she witnessed the lack of treatment options available for pre and postnatal women when they experienced musculoskeletal dysfunction. After completing several hours of continuing education in the area of women’s health, she founded one of the first pelvic physical therapy programs in the region.

Career Path

After a successful career in Wisconsin, she moved in 2002 to Kansas City and was hired by Olathe Medical Center to develop its first Pelvic Rehab Program.

From 2014-2017, she was asked to join a private practice in Kansas City that specialized in pelvic physical therapy.

Then in the Spring of 2018, Shannon started her own Physical Therapy company, REHAB FOR HER, a one-of-a-kind practice that focuses on women and the rehab they need throughout their lifespan.

Renowned Speaker & Educator

Over her career, Shannon has become a renowned speaker and educator on women’s health physical therapy.

Shannon became one of the first in the nation to be certified in Pelvic Physical Therapy.

Shannon belongs to the International Pelvic Pain Society (IPPS) and has a CAPP Certificate of Achievement in Pelvic Health Physical Therapy.

Developed the first women’s health elective course for the Doctorate of Physical Therapy program at Rockhurst University.

Wrote a chapter on prenatal health in the physical therapy textbook, “Prevention Practice” by Catherine Thompson.
