About Dr. Rebecca Maidansky, PT, DPT

Hey y’all - I’m a pelvic floor physical therapist by trade, perinatal specialist by training and passionate reproductive rights advocate. I’m the founder Lady Bird PT, a writer, public speaker and most recently, a mom. And while that last title is my absolute favorite, it’s not what qualifies me to support you through your pregnancy, birth and recovery.

I’ve worked with over a thousand pregnant and postpartum people over the course of my clinical career. I’ve treated folks experiencing infertility, pelvic pain in pregnancy, helped folks prepare for vaginal births, VBACs and cesareans, supported people navigating recovery from birth injuries and so much more. I’ve taken hundreds of hours of courses on everything pelvic health, pregnancy and reproductive health across the lifespan. I’ve created courses, written for national publications, worked alongside physicians to optimize pelvic health care.

What I already knew, but my own pregnancy served to solidify, is that pregnancy and postpartum recovery are wildly under-supported. Too many people are navigating one of the most vulnerable times in their lives alone and they don’t have to. If you’ve been told you just have to wait your pain out, if your concerns have been brushed off, if you need a second opinion or help getting your health back on track, that’s what I’m here for.

And in a time where reproductive rights are being systematically stripped away, I simply cannot imagine anything else I would rather do than supporting pregnant people.
