Her practice specializes in pelvic floor rehabilitation including the treatment of bladder and bowel dysfunction, pelvic pain, prenatal care, and postpartum recovery. Jenn and her team provide evidence-based, individualized care and combine traditional physical therapy with yoga-based movement. They also offer acupuncture to foster a holistic treatment approach.  Jenn believes that this work is about self care and it is not about fixing something that is broken or wrong with us. It is about optimizing how we move, breathe, and feel in our bodies in all stages of our lives. Jenn is passionate about making these topics assessable and educating anyone who will listen about the importance of pelvic health.

In addition, Jenn leads yoga and pelvic floor workshops and educates yoga teachers in training in anatomy for 200 and 300hr YTT programs.
