About
Dr. Brittany Webb
Webb Pelvic PT was founded by Dr. Brittany Webb a Physical Therapist certified by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialists. She received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Texas State University and upon graduation began her career in the US Army as a Physical Therapist. She served 4 years of active duty in Fort Carson, Colorado where she discovered her passion for helping both men and women suffering from conditions affecting the pelvis and pelvic floor region. This motivated her to pursue additional training and mentorship in that specialty. She developed the Pelvic Health/Women’s Health program at Evans Army Community Hospital in Colorado to ensure that Soldiers and their families had access to pelvic floor physical therapy. After completing her time in the Army, she moved back to the wonderful state of Texas with her husband and daughter. Not long after, she received her Board-Certification in Women’s Health Physical Therapy from the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialists. She has extensive experience in outpatient orthopedics, acute care, and the home health setting. She is thankful for her experience in the military which provided her invaluable experience and training in trigger point dry needling, Women’s Health/Pelvic health, post-operative orthopedic care, injury prevention, and general health and wellness initiatives. She enjoys spending time outdoors, and traveling with her husband and now two children
OUR STORY
Webb Pelvic PT is a pelvic floor physical therapy practice specializing in Women’s health and pelvic health. We provide exceptional one-on-one care for each of our patients in order to guide you to full healing and restoration.
Conditions involving the pelvic floor and pelvic region are common among women during pregnancy, the postpartum period, and during the transition to menopause (permenopause to postmenopause). However, with specialized pelvic floor physical therapy and holistic treatment techniques these pelvic floor conditions can be treated.
We are passionate about improving women’s health through the provision of personalized pelvic floor treatment for all women. We believe that women shouldn’t have to suffer frequent pain or limitations due to pregnancy and childbirth.
That is why we utilize our expertise and years of experience to provide physical therapy that alleviates pain, prepares your body for childbirth, and guides your pelvic floor to full healing and restoration after childbirth. Beyond childbearing-related issues, we provide pelvic floor physical therapy for men and women who are experiencing pain or discomfort in the pelvis due to pelvic floor impairments.
We are passionate, friendly, and above all dedicated to providing you with the best care.

FAQ's
-
Do I need a referral for Physical Therapy to start? Who can make a referral?Yes. We can technically perform the First Visit/Evaluation without one, but you will need one within the first two weeks of starting. It is best to start with a referral, so that you can continue to be seen without waiting on the referral. Primary Care Physicians (NP, PA, MD, DO), OBGYN, Podiatry, and Chiropractor's are all able to make referrals to PT.
-
I’m currently pregnant and I am not having any issues so far, should I start therapy prior to delivery?Yes, it is highly recommended to start during pregnancy so that we are able to teach you how to connect with the pelvis and pelvic floor muscles and help prepare your body for childbirth. This will also assist you when recovering postpartum.
-
How many weeks postpartum do you suggest coming in to start pelvic floor physical therapy?Usually you can come in for an evaluation at 6 weeks postpartum, however, if you had a strenuous delivery and were told you had a grade 3-4 perineal tear OR you had a C-section, it's advised that you come in sooner than later. If unsure, don’t hesitate to call for more guidance.
-
I am more than 5 years postpartum, but I am still having issues and feel that I never recovered postpartum, is it too late?No, even if you were 20+ years postpartum, it is still never too late to start pelvic floor physical therapy. We have been able to see success in many women who are only a few weeks postpartum all the way up to 20+ years postpartum.
-
How long will it take for me to fully recover once I start therapy?Each person is completely different in how their body recovers and responds, but most people are able to see good progress by 3-4 weeks with consistency of therapy treatments.
What to Expect First Visit
Your first visit typically focuses on understanding your symptoms, evaluating your pelvic function, and creating a personalized treatment plan. Your Physical Therapist will take time to obtain a thorough history and discuss all of your symptoms. They will educate you on the role and function of the pelvic floor in everyday life. Lastly, the physical assessment may include an external examination of posture, gait, abdominal muscle tone, diastasis recti and hip, spine and pelvic alignment.
Will There Be an Internal Assessment?
Your PT will perform an internal pelvic assessment, with your consent, on the second visit. However, if you are wanting an assessment at time of the evaluation, please ask and we’d be happy to do that. The internal exam is not a requirement, but this can be helpful to identify and treat dysfunction related to your symptoms. If you do not want an internal assessment or don’t feel comfortable doing so, no problem. We are happy to walk you through other options such as external, Pelvic Floor Biofeedback or we can skip entirely based on your comfort. Will I still make progress without it? Of course, we will do everything we can to help you and will make sure we are providing you with the best treatment plan based on your goals.
