Pregnancy & Postpartum Women
Prenatal & Postpartum Women
A woman’s body undergoes significant changes during pregnancy, many of which can be physically demanding and uncomfortable.
Yet women are often told to simply wait until after childbirth for their pain to subside, leaving them to endure discomfort throughout pregnancy. This always troubled Shannon. As a dedicated physical therapist, she was driven to uncover the root causes of her patients' pain and dysfunction, offering not just temporary relief, but long-term solutions that empower women to feel their best.
Shannon’s approach goes beyond manual therapy and exercises. She educates patients on proper posture, body mechanics, and daily life adaptations. Women deserve to thrive, not just manage symptoms, during pregnancy and the postpartum period.



Attention, Mamas: Shannon loves babies! You’re more than welcome to bring your little one to Rehab For Her if it won’t interfere with your session. If getting out of the house is a challenge, we also offer virtual appointments and home visits for postpartum mothers, ensuring you get the care you need wherever you are.

[Shannon] helped me through my first pregnancy with what to expect, normal/not normal issues, helped me prepare for labor, and provided the support I needed. Thanks to Shannon I feel like I was as prepared as possible having my first baby.Postpartum, Shannon was a huge help and getting my body back to normal- even better than before! I felt stronger postpartum than I did before getting pregnant thanks to her help and techniques. (No more peeing pants and strengthens my core and glutes.)
Shortly after my first baby, I got pregnant with my second baby and have been feeling stronger and better than ever thanks to the support and help Shannon provided.
