Dr. Jenn understands how frustrating it can be to recover from childbirth. After the birth of her children, tailbone and hip pain kept her from playing with her children and returning to activity. At her 6-week postpartum check up, she was given the "all clear" to resume normal activities, but was given little guidance on how to do so. When pain kept her from exercising, she grew frustrated and felt neglected. She knew pain and pelvic floor dysfunction wasn't normal, nor should it be "expected" even during the postpartum time period. This grew her desire to specialize in women's pelvic floor dysfunction and postpartum recovery. After helping many women recover from pelvic floor dysfunction, she realized how many women are told that pain and leakage are "par for the course". Dr. Jenn is a huge advocate for promoting women's health and educating the community that while pelvic floor concerns are common, they are never normal.
Dr. Jenn received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy (DPT) from Columbia University in 2012 and is a board certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS). She received her advanced post-doctoral training in pelvic health and pelvic floor physical therapy through the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and the Herman & Wallace Institute. Jenn is an active member of the Global Pelvic Health Alliance Membership (GPHAM) through Pelvic Guru and the Academy of Pelvic Health through the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). Dr. Jenn lives in Newtown, PA, and loves how it is filled with other local, small businesses. She is striving to make Vivid Women's Health be the forefront of women's healthcare in the Newtown, PA and surrounding Bucks and Mercer County communities. Dr. Jenn enjoys staying active with her family and often can be seen walking with her little ones around the streets of Newtown. |
