We’re here to meet you exactly where you are — from the middle of your work-from-home day or the coziness of your bedroom.
Book NowWe’ll help you build strength and flexibility throughout pregnancy and then practice pushing and labor positions as you get closer to delivery. And, we’ll be right here for postpartum, too.
Whether you feel a constant urge to pee, leak urine when you sneeze, or have pain with sex, we can diagnose you with a virtual visit and get you on a clear path to relief and recovery.
From chronic back pain and sciatica to mommy's thumb and nursing neck, we’ve got you. We provide full body care — all rooted in the latest research.
Taking care of yourself shouldn’t break the bank. Learn more here.
We’ve helped 30,000+ women and individuals with vaginal anatomy feel better in their bodies. That’s why 96% of patients recommend Origin to a friend or family member. Here’s what our virtual customers are saying.
“I don’t even want to imagine a time when I can’t work with my PT.”
“It’s glorious and so easy, I don’t have to think and I’ve noticed a difference.”
“It felt like my PT really cared — like I really mattered to her.”

Choose a room that is well-lit and has enough space for you to fully stretch out on the floor.

Yes! Sometimes we can use your child as a weight or to practice safe lifting and carrying strategies. But, we also encourage you to give your body the full kid-free attention it deserves, if you can.
Yes, virtual sessions with your pelvic floor physical therapist are HIPAA compliant and will never be recorded.
You will never be asked to show your vulva on Zoom. In some cases, your therapist may offer to verbally guide you through self-exam or you can choose to do a self exam between visits. Your comfort is our priority.
