Dr. Zaphira Gavaldon, PT, DPT

Zaphira is passionate about helping people better understand their bodies, feel more confident in their care, and get back to the activities and everyday moments that matter to them. She believes good care starts with listening, and strives to create an environment where patients feel comfortable, heard, and never judged.

She especially enjoys treating pelvic pain, urinary and fecal incontinence, pain with intercourse, and pregnancy-related pelvic floor concerns. Her interest in pelvic health was inspired by her mother's experience navigating the healthcare system, where she was recommended a hysterectomy without first being offered pelvic floor physical therapy. That experience made her passionate about helping people understand that many pelvic health concerns are treatable and don't have to be accepted as a normal part of aging or life.

Outside the clinic, Zaphira loves reading on the beach, listening to live music, playing tennis, and trying new running trails, workout classes, and recipes.
