Full Circle Birth & Pelvic Health: Opiniones
Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely recommend working with Stefanie. I was looking for something really specific during my pregnancy and postpartum care, and Stefanie was the only provider I could find who met my needs. Stefanie gave me an individualized approach and worked to facilitate my pelvic floor muscles back to full function. I was so happy with my results, and I am happy I invested in my self care. Now I can workout and do all of my responsibilities as a mother without pain. Can't recommend Stefanie enough.
Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience and noticed a huge improvement in my symptoms after only 1 session! Thanks so much.
Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience working with Stefanie. I hired her with the Full Circle package and was able to have doula care and pelvic floor PT all in one. Best investment into my pregnant and postpartum care! Stefanie is amazing at what she does. Each PT session I left feeling seen and heard, as well as my body feeling so much better. Along with nutrition and movement, I had a very simple recovery process postpartum and she was able to close up my minimal DR quickly. I worked with Sara as my doula and she was my ROCK during labor. I would not have wanted to do it without her. She was incredibly supportive, caring, and so very present with my through the entire process. I will absolutely be working with them again for future pregnancies!!!
Experiencia fantástica: I used Dr. Stefanie for prenatal and postnatal pelvic floor therapy for both of my children and I could not sing my praises loud enough for her! Dr. Stefanie is a wealth of knowledge not only for all things pelvic floor but also all things birth. I always left my visits not only physically feeling better but also having learned something to carry with me. She is truly phenomenal and I highly recommend Full Circle Birth & Pelvic Health to all of my friends and anyone in need of pelvic floor therapy!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr Stefanie and Sara have been such amazing resources before, during and after my delivery. I never had a doula in my previous two deliveries but with my third I wanted more personal support. Dr Stefanie prepped me with our PT sessions before delivery. Sara worked with me before the delivery to be on the same page and was instrumental during labor and working through various challenges. She changed the game and helped make this labor the most positive experience. Dr Stefanie continues to support me with PT postpartum. You really can’t beat the “full circle” support. Not to mention they’re both fun to be around!
Experiencia fantástica: Sara and Dr. Stephanie are an amazing team. Sara was an absolutely wonderful doula. She was attentive, full of information, empathetic, engaging, down to earth and make me feel so comfortable. Having her by my side during my second birthing experience was reassuring and was one of the best decisions I made during my journey. Thank you both for everything. I am thrilled to recommend you to others!
Experiencia fantástica: If I could hire Stefanie over and over again, I would. She helped guide me during my first pregnancy journey and advocated for me in every way possible. She is a wealth of knowledge and puts so much passion and love into what she does. She not only understands the spiritual side of birth, but the physiology of birth and the woman's body. Stefanie is extremely medically sound and I felt SO confident in her practice. It is so evident this is her calling. You will not regret having her by your side as you bring your little human into the world.
Experiencia fantástica: When I say I wish I started going to this practice sooner, I mean it! And by sooner, I mean I wish I had looked into them for doula services when I was pregnant. I started seeing Stefanie for PT and scar-tissue work when I was 6 months postpartum. She's a wonderful person who truly cares about you, and does everything she can to help you. She resolved so many issues I was experiencing that I didn't even realize were related to childbirth. I'm so grateful to her and will genuinely miss our sessions! I've recommended her to every pregnant/postpartum friend I know!
Experiencia fantástica: I knew right away with my third baby that I needed to focus and put an emphasis on postpartum healing this time around. For me that meant pelvic floor therapy as well. I also knew I already had a pre-existing diastasis recti separation, and knew I was going to see Dr. Stefanie after I had my baby. Dr. Stef is literally a unicorn in our community, and by that I mean she treats very holistically, but efficiently and there is NOBODY like her. Every community needs a Dr Stefanie! Her care is literally unmatched and unlike any other physical therapist in our general area. So often were met with exercises and things we really shouldn't be doing postpartum that can often make matters worse .. but Dr. Stef is so well versed on the pregnant and postpartum body and talks you through exactly what she is doing and why. With one more session, i have no doubt my DR will be resolved completely due to her hands on visceral manipulations and therapeutics. I know so many women who either just live with their pelivic floor dysfunctions or end up in surgery, and im so happy and lucky i got to avoid both with her care. She is LITERALLY the best❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is so talented. I hired her for my very first birth and knew she was a unicorn in this community as she is also a pelvic floor PT. I knew how important that was to me while being pregnant and postpartum. Beyond her amazing support and expertise during my labor, she’s been such a trusted and genuine support person during my postpartum experience. She is empowering women and is truly changing how birth and postpartum care should be handled. I’m so lucky to work with her and to have had her in my corner. Stefanie is making a difference and I love that about her business!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie is wonderful. I’ve done PT 3 other times postpartum and she’s by far the best. I went for diastasis recti. Before it would take months of ab workouts/breathing techniques several days a week to fixing them in 1-2 visits w Dr Stef. Highly recommend her. It was the most relaxing PT session I’ve ever had. I wish I had gone to her during pregnancy as well! Don’t hesitate to call her if you are.
Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love Dr. Stefanie! She helped prepare me for my Vbac and really helped heal my core postpartum! She has amazing suggestions for pregnancy, labor and postpartum! I love talking birth with her! Highly recommend for overall birth and postpartum pelvic floor healing!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie has been extremely helpful and supportive in my postpartum journey. She helped close my diastasis recti in one visit. She also does a great job with different types of therapies and it doesn’t hurt that she is fun to talk to. Highly recommend! I will miss her!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is simply the best at what she does. I am so incredibly grateful for her care.
Experiencia fantástica: I sought pelvic floor therapy to address hip pain and periformis pain. I'm very happy with the treatment I received and highly recommend this practice.
Experiencia fantástica: Best birth experience I could have hoped for! My doula, Sara, was dedicated and knowledgeable that I can’t express how thankful I am to have had her on my side throughout the pregnancy (especially during labor). Both Dr. Stefanie and Sara are phenomenal in the care they give and made my first pregnancy experience a memorable one.
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is an amazing doula and pelvic floor physical therapist. She has a wealth of knowledge about birth and how the body functions. I learned so much working with her and she helped me to feel great during pregnancy and prep my body for birth. I had the empowering, unmedicated birth I was hoping for and I truly attribute that to Stefanie’s expertise and support!
Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie was so great, from educating my husband and I about childbirth to assisting during the actual birth. She also helped me manage my back pain during pregnancy. Highly recommend!
Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing Dr. Stef for infertility treatments in September 2021. Everything she does is gentle, yet effective. I found out I was pregnant in January 2022 and I immediately hired her to be my doula. Stefanie is so passionate about what she does and has such an incredible energy. She made sure I was as prepared as I could be for birth, helped me make informed decisions during labor, and made sure my body healed appropriately after birth. My husband and I love Dr. Stef and can’t recommend her enough!!!
Experiencia fantástica: I was having multiple issues with my pelvic floor and Stefanie changed my life. She’s brilliant!!! Forever changed my life.
Experiencia fantástica: Would give more stars if I could!!! Stefanie and Sara are the ultimate duo. I cant imagine either my birth or pregnancy experience without them. Highly highly recommend them for both doula and pelvic floor services!! Thank you both x a million!!!!!
Experiencia fantástica: Best birth experience I could have hoped for! My doula, Sara, was dedicated and knowledgeable that I can’t express how thankful I am to have had her on my side throughout the pregnancy (especially during labor). Both Dr. Stefanie and Sara are phenomenal in the care they give and made my first pregnancy experience a memorable one.
Experiencia fantástica: I am so thankful I found Stefanie! After having my second baby I was diagnosed with bladder prolapse and it was devastating. If that is your diagnosis, let me save you some stress and anxiety right now - quit reading what Dr. Google has to say and just go see Stefanie. I came to her honestly feeling hopeless that nothing could help, and left my first appointment feeling enormous hope that my prolapse can be healed - and with her treatments, it was. Stefanie is kind, confident and very passionate about what she does and I highly recommend her to anyone.
Experiencia fantástica: I got my yearly done here and Nurse Shelli was the most compassionate and real healthcare provider I’ve ever worked with. I’m not too keen on clinical situations and this place was warm and inviting, full of professionalism and love. I got great advice for some woman schtuff I was dealing with and results were delivered quickly via email! Park by Miss Kittys and walk around the building - door is facing Ogden but you wouldn’t know it from the parking lot.
Experiencia fantástica: Caring and affectionate beyond compare while also being a wealth of knowledge. Couldn't say anything but praise
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie and Sara were amazing and my wife and I have nothing but positive things to say about them. This was our first birth and so we had little to no knowledge of what to expect. Having Stefanie and Sara be our doulas was one of the best decisions we made as they were a constant source of knowledge and help throughout the pregnancy and afterwards. Their dedication and genuine desire to help you have the type of birth you want was awesome. Nothing but love and respect for Stefanie and Sara.
Experiencia fantástica: Very happy with full circle. At first I was put off since they specialize in birth and pelvic health. After doing a couple session I realized my low back pain, constipation, and weak urine flow were improving. Visceral therapy or organ manipulation is another great tool for holistic health to make sure the body is running optimally. This therapy is for men as well. Don't get nervous.
Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr Stefanie to help me with scar tissue from resection surgery and what felt like internal bruising from having years of Crohn's disease. She was very informative and talked through the anatomy of my body and how everything talks to eachother as she was treating me. Her office is very warm and welcoming and although I am hesitant and anxious with doctors, she made me calm and relaxed rather quickly before starting treatment. Her treatment seemed so simple but the results were felt within 24 hours. I would highly recommend her and will be including her as part of my regular treatment for my Crohn's Disease indefinitely. Thank you Dr. Stefanie!!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is such a wonderful provider! She’s very knowledgeable and most importantly, passionate, about her job. I couldn’t have gotten through my pregnancy without her. And I even hired her to attend my birth! I don’t think I would’ve gotten my natural birth without her help during labor. She was incredible. She is gentle and knows how to hold space for a laboring mom.
Experiencia fantástica: I wish everyone could have Stefanie as their doula! My husband and I were so pleased with our experience with her. She was so informative and helpful when coming up with our birth plan. We were so impressed with her extensive knowledge and she was able to answer all of our questions. She helped ease my husbands anxieties surrounding the birth of our son and was able to help him feel comfortable with how to help me while I was in labor. Her calming presence and techniques helped me feel calm while in labor and I believe helped speed up the process. I recommend her to anyone seeking a doula!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is without a doubt one of the main reasons that my husband and I did not give up on our infertility journey. I had been through two failed IVF cycles by the time I found her, and from the very first session we had, she gave me a better understanding and comfort around what I needed (and my body needed) to ultimately get pregnant than any of the specialists and MDs I had been to at that point. She has a wonderful demeanor and is maybe one of the most passionate providers I've ever worked with - always going above and beyond! She empowered me to ask questions, try new things, and most importantly - never give up hope. Really cannot say enough good things about her and recommend that any women going through infertility, pregnancy, postpartum, etc. see Dr. Stefanie - you will not regret it!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is one of those hard-to-find people who is helping provide better pre and post natal care for mamas. Not only is Stefanie incredibly knowledgeable in all things pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum.. she has a deep love and passion for women in those seasons of life. Her skill is equally matched by her attentive care, a rare find. I found Stefanie during a somewhat traumatic postpartum experience. Diagnosed with prolapse at 3 months postpartum, I had seen 2 other pelvic floor physical therapists before meeting Stefanie (one who offered me lifestyle modifications to see me through until I was ready for surgery, and another whose kegel regime aggravated my symptoms even further). Stefanie’s unique approach to treatment closed my diastisis recti gap, eased my prolapse symptoms, and has given me hope of one day returning to activities I love (running, yoga, being a mom to a busy toddler, having future kids). I leave every session learning something new from Stefanie, and can’t imagine ever going through pregnancy, birth, or postpartum again without having her on my team. My only regret is not meeting her sooner! You couldn’t put yourself in better, more caring hands. She is a true gem.
Experiencia fantástica: I reached out to Dr. Stefanie for pelvic floor physical therapy midway through my first pregnancy, and from the first phone call with her I knew I was in good hands. Every session with her has been extremely beneficial, and I will continue to see her along my postpartum journey. She is one of the best providers I have ever seen, she is beyond knowledgeable and passionate about women’s health and I would recommend her to anyone!
Experiencia fantástica: I can’t recommend Stefanie enough! The knowledge and expertise she brings you is unmatched. Not to mention the kindness she brings and the passion she has for her job, it’s unreal! My husband and I had been trying to conceive for nearly a year without success, yet after one treatment session with Stefanie — we got pregnant. She took the time to take diligent notes about my medical history at the start of our session, explained everything she did and why she was doing it as she worked on me, and left me feeling so in tune with what exactly what was going on with my body. Now as we continue on in our pregnancy journey, she’s been just as involved and we feel so blessed to have her in our lives and as our doula! From helping with first trimester sickness, to check ins and advise, to our prenatal sessions, she’s made this entire pregnancy so easy (and comforting). Whatever you may be going through — you need Stefanie in your life, I can promise you that! Check her out and see for yourself :) you’ll see instantly how good of a fit she is for you!
Experiencia fantástica: I have very complex symptoms and chronic pain that a prior physical therapist was unable to resolve even after a year of therapy. I found Stefanie and saw that she incorporates visceral therapy into pelvic floor therapy and I was very intrigued and decided to try switching therapists. She changed my life. She helped to resolve chronic pain that I had been battling for years after just a few appointments and she got me to a point where I was finally pain free for weeks at a time! She is very skilled and knowledgeable. She is also very kind and professional. And while I didn’t hire her as a doula, just as a PT seeing me occasionally she was such a valuable educational resource for me during 2 pregnancies and postpartum. I recommend her to everyone I know with difficult recoveries after birth!
Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been to several doctors concerning pain associated with my bladder. There was never any solution. Stefanie was the first person to finally make the discomfort go away! She uses techniques that you will not find in any doctors office, and she is very knowledgeable in womens health!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie does amazing work! I’ve made so much progress with her help! After a tough first baby delivery and painful recovery, Dr. Stefanie was able to help me heal without any pain or surgeries. She gave me courage to have a second child and walked me through my whole pregnancy, birth, and postpartum stage. It’s a relaxing and healing experience, and I highly recommend her and her services! Go see her!!
Experiencia fantástica: I am so grateful I had Stefanie on my birthing team! She's incredibly knowledgeable and her clear, confident communication gave me extra reassurance during my pregnancy and early postpartum. I've already told several people about her specialized techniques and how transformational her work is. You're in great hands if you're putting your trust in Stefanie!
Experiencia fantástica: I saw Stefanie just 3 weeks after having my 4th baby and she fixed my diastasis recti in just 1 visit! Seriously blew my mind. She is super knowledgeable, makes you feel very comfortable and so incredibly gifted at what she does. All you moms out there please go see her…you will be so happy you did!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie is truly the most excellent care provider in her field. After experiencing a post-miscarriage pelvic floor injury, I was not experiencing any improvement with the physical therapy group I was originally recommended to. After finding Dr. Stefanie, I started to see improvements almost immediately. I think the biggest testament to her care has been the difference between my experience in pregnancy and postpartum with my most recent birth (last month) and my previous pregnancies and postpartums, especially as regards the integrity of my pelvic floor. If you're in doubt that your body can truly heal itself after childbearing, see Dr. Stefanie.
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stephanie is a miracle worker! Came in for chronic back pain I’ve been dealing with for 20+ years - and she fixed it with work on my C-section and pelvic area. Can’t recommend seeing her enough!
Experiencia fantástica: I am so glad I found Dr. Stephanie and decided to invest in my health and get pelvic floor therapy during my third pregnancy! Stephanie’s energy is calm and confident. She knows what she is doing and does it with passion. I started seeing Stephanie around week 25 and I saw her until I was about 3 mo postpartum. I will continue to see her as needed because I know the work she does is extremely beneficial for my personal health and happiness. If you are trying to get pregnant, pregnant or postpartum I highly suggest seeing Dr. Stephanie. Ladies, you are not supposed to live with pain and while it might be common to pee your pants after having a baby, it’s not normal! Get help!
Experiencia fantástica: If there’s one person you need before, during, and after pregnancy, it’s Dr. Stefanie. All I can say is that I wish I met her sooner! I started seeing her after the birth of my first child. She healed me physically and emotionally from my first (an unplanned c-section after a long labor which began by an induction I didn’t even realize I was talked into). Having Dr. Stefanie on my team during this last pregnancy was night and day. She provided me with the knowledge and tools to prepare for birth, and treated me during my pregnancy so that my pelvic floor didn’t lead me to “maternal failure” again. She was available for questions, help, guidance, support, and love when I needed her. (I am 4 weeks postpartum and she’s still providing that!) Without her I’m not sure I would have had a successful vbac, which I was so desperate for after my first. Talk about empowering… because of Dr. Stefanie, I found the courage to even try instead of succumbing to a scheduled c-section that I truly did not want. She is a beautiful ray of light with superhero powers as far as I’m concerned and I’m so lucky to have her in my life! If you’re reading this and wondering: Do yourself a favor and take care of yourself!
Experiencia fantástica: Doctor Stefanie has been AMAZING! Having her as our doula for the birth of our first child was one of the best decisions we’ve made. My husband and I felt informed of our choices, confident in our decisions and handled all the unexpected changes better than we would have without her guidance. Postpartum, she has been helping me with my pelvic floor health and couldn’t recommend her enough!
Experiencia fantástica: I have been to many different physical therapists for many different issues, and Stefanie is one of the best I've seen. I was devastated with a diagnosis of bladder prolapse halfway through my third pregnancy, and I'm so grateful a friend told me about her! Her approach is radically different (and so much better!) than mainstream pelvic floor PT. I experienced immediate and substantial relief after my first visit! I've also become hopeful and encouraged that my body is capable of true healing. Thank you, Stefanie!!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie has been so kind and compassionate. I love that she does home visits. It's perfect for a new mom. She in incredibly knowledgeable and healed my 4cm DR!! I am finally able to handle regular activity and my body feels so strong after having 2 babies in 2 years. I highly recommend her for postpartum PT!
Experiencia fantástica: Best birth experience I could have hoped for! This was my second birth and I knew I wanted it to be completely different from my first (induced, no doula, all the interventions). I met Stefanie and instantly knew she could help me achieve the birth of my dreams. She is a wealth of knowledge regarding birth and pelvic floor therapy— which is a huge bonus for after birth PT. Stefanie helped me labor at home and coached me through contractions while manipulating my body to help the baby descend and get into position. The labor was so fast, and so easy — and I attribute this to laboring at home with Stefanie. It was so reassuring to have her by my side and it gave me the confidence to listen to my body and trust the birthing process. Thank you Stefanie for being my advocate and birthing friend - you are amazing!!!
Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr. Stefanie for pelvic floor dysfunction, and she truly helped me get some major quality of life back. No more pain during intercourse! She listened to me and made me feel so at ease. I finally felt like someone heard me and wanted to help. She was extremely professional, caring, and helpful during my treatment! She even helped me with some strategies to use at home when needed. I can’t recommend her enough!
Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing Stefanie before our first child was born November 2019. We are 5 weeks away from having our second child and my husband and I are very much looking forward to this amazing experience of bringing a newborn into the world and having Stefanie be there again. The comfort, knowledge, and experience she brings to such an unknown, uncontrollable atmosphere is unmeasured. I’m so happy that she has been apart of my journey of pregnancy, labor and delivery, post pregnancy, motherhood, and helping me mentally and physically do it all over again in such a short period of time. I recommend her to everyone I know and can not stress to them enough that she is amazing and will help you during every aspect of pregnancy. She truly is one of a kind!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie has changed my life! I was 2 phone calls away from scheduling abdominal surgery. I have had 3 c-sections (scar tissue pain!), 10-pound babies, and large/deep diastasis recti. I was having pain and pressure with every function of my pelvic floor. I literally had to lay down in the middle of every day because my core could not support me to make it through caring for my 4 children. I was a mess!!! After just a couple sessions with Dr. Stefanie I had zero pelvic floor pain. My core can now withstand my day without taking a break, and my abdominal separation is almost closed. Please let me shout from the rooftops: GO SEE HER!!! :)
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie has immense passion for what she does. The knowledge and care she provided throughout my pregnancy was empowering! I enjoyed seeing her for my prenatal appointments to prepare for birth and felt immensely supported and cared for by her during labor and delivery. Stefanie’s gentle guidance with position changes and pelvic alignment helped labor to continue progressing. She was with me throughout my labor and after. Making sure I stayed hydrated and offering suggestions when needed. Having Stefanie as my pelvic therapist and doula was an amazing and positive experience that I will continue to remember proudly. My body and mind were in a safe space which allowed me to have the unmediated birthing experience I desired.
Experiencia fantástica: This is a 100% honest review! Dr. Stefanie McMillin is absolutely AMAZING! I was suffering for a year with horrible GI issues where my GI doctor basically ended up recommending pelvic floor therapy. Stefanie is a miracle worker and from her manual manipulation and coaching/advice I no longer have any GI problems. She knows her stuff, she’s worked with my pregnant/post partum friends, and everyone always has great things to say about their experiences with her. I highly recommend her!!!
Experiencia fantástica: Dr Stefanie is amazing!! She’s so knowledgeable and welcoming and I learned so much about my body after just one session with her. I’m so thankful I found her and excited to continue with care. With her support, I finally feel confident that I’ll be able to heal and prepare my body for a redemptive second pregnancy!
Experiencia fantástica: I have been Stefanie McMillin's patient since 2016. I came to her one year post female pelvic surgery. My team of doctors could not figure out why I was still having life altering pelvic pain. I broke down crying in my gastroenterologist office because he said he couldn’t help me. I was being bounced around by doctors with no help in sight. He ran out of the room and came back with Stephanie’s contact information. That day changed my life. After 4 visits I was 80% better. Within 6 months I was 100%. After all these years I still see Stefanie once a month. It amazes me the scope of knowledge and treatment Stefanie provides. She truly looks at each patient as an individual. I have been treated with so much skill and compassion. I am so thankful for her.
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stephanie is the real-deal 5 star experience. She has a wonderful beside manner, educates her patients, and recommends evidence based treatment plans that deliver results. I saw her post partum after my first child with urinary incontinence issues and then for pre-natal care with my second child. My second delivery was much smoother and I did not have the same vaginal tearing as my first and I attribute part of that outcome to working with Dr. Stephanie.
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie gave me my life back! I had years of pelvic pain and subsequent chronic symptoms that baffled other healthcare providers and plagued my early 20’s. Not only did my PT sessions with Stefanie provide immediate relief of symptoms, she truly listened and educated me to approach my chronic issues with hope and empowerment as opposed to desperation for relief. Knowing I had such a wealth of helpful, practical knowledge and a genuinely invested practitioner in my corner was a tangible milestone in both my healing and my life. I can say with certainty I will be seeking out Stefanie for services in the future!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie was an incredible support for me during prenatal appointments to prepare for my second birth. I had a rough postpartum after my first and wanted to make sure my pelvic floor was optimal for a better experience this time around. Stefanie is truly gifted in what she does and is incredibly knowledgable and caring. I learned so much and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of some prenatal care!
Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to Dr. Stefanie by a friend of mine who had used her for both pelvic floor therapy and as her birth doula for her home birth- I am so incredibly grateful for the recommendation- I felt instantly like she was the right fit for me as a doula and did not even bother to search for others- Which certainly made my life easier! I have been seeing. Stefanie throughout my pregnancy for support and preparation for birth, and every treatment has left me feeling better and better. Around my 23-24 week mark I developed severe discomfort on my left side near my hip, to the point where I was immobile for 3 days. I had been working with a massage therapist, naprapath, and also had wonderful support from acupuncture and chiropractic, but nothing was touching the pain. Dr. Stefanie saw me quickly once the pain progressed and was able to instantly isolate the cause - which so happened to be in an entirely different location that where I was feeling the pain. I was 80% better after 1 treatment and 100% by 2 treatments. I work in the natural health-care field, and never expect patients to heal that quickly- as I know the body can take time- so to say I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement :) I am now approaching 36 weeks and feeling absolutely amazing. No relapses at all with her continued treatments. I joke that I forget I am pregnant all the time- because I feel that great! I feel so at ease knowing that Stefanie will be our birth support for labor and delivery. She has helped ease my husbands concerns, and we cannot wait for her to be by our sides as we welcome our little guy into this world- she is more than an wonderful doctor- she really is an incredible woman to know and work with and know. You'll see what I mean when you meet her :)
Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stefanie is the reason I was able to heal from my first traumatic delivery (I injured my tailbone among other things) and was even able to attempt a non-medicated birth with my second delivery. Since I experienced so many complications with my first delivery and was again experiencing complications while pregnant with my second my doctors were pushing me to only consider a C-section delivery, however I decided to have a doula in hopes of having the experience I missed out on the first time. Dr. Stefanie helped me during pregnancy to ensure my body was able to stay strong and helped me alleviate any discomforts and then was there for both me and my husband during labor helping him help me and feel like he was truly taking part rather than a bystander in the process. When things weren’t progressing the way we wanted during labor and my doctor all but gave up on us and our plan Dr. Stefanie was able to reassess and help me go from a more or less stalled labor to holding a baby within a very short amount of time. It was a night and day experience from my first delivery and although I’m done having babies if I were to do it again I wouldn’t hesitate to have her with me again. There’s no way I would’ve been able to have a vaginal delivery let alone a non-medicated one without Dr. Stefanie by my side helping me out. After delivering Dr. Stefanie was again able to help my body heal and get me to a point where I wasn’t in pain 24/7. I honestly can’t say enough good things about Dr. Stefanie, she’s incredibly smart, kind and cares deeply about all of her patients and I’ve definitely had my full circle moment with her. If you are experiencing any issues from conception to post-partum care contact Dr. Stefanie at Full Circle Birth & Pelvic Health, I promise you won’t regret it!
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is the best! She is incredibly knowledgeable, down to earth and so sweet! If you are looking for any type of pelvic floor therapy or doula services call her immediately. You won’t find anyone better.
Experiencia fantástica: Have you ever left your regular 4 week doctor visits during pregnancy feeling like, that's it?! A quick heartbeat check and belly measurement and they send you on your way. I remember countless times sharing my pregnancy symptoms such as nausea and sciatic pain and hearing "those are just common symptoms" and basically... deal with it! Finding Stefanie was a godsend! I was experiencing extreme nausea/vomiting and sciatic nerve pain during my pregnancy and instead of telling me it was "just a common pregnancy symptom" she took the time to listen and provided MULTIPLE solutions to the problem. She used a variety of different approaches to help me with these issues and used techniques I didn't even know existed . And the best thing... all of the things she did actually worked! I cannot put into words what a relief it was to find someone who truly listened and actively found solutions to issues I was having. Not to mention, going to see her each week in her office was legitimately like going to the spa each week. SO relaxing and SO calming. I always looked forward to going. If you are like me and feel like those quick 4 week checkups during pregnancy just aren't enough, I highly recommend making an appointment. Stefanie's knowledge on everything pregnancy and pelvic floor health is truly unmatched and is unlike anything I have seen from my regular OB doctor. You will feel listened to, supported and will be amazed at how much you will learn from her.
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie is truly a one of a kind healer! She is compassionate, brilliant, and incredibly supportive. I started seeing Stefanie while I was pregnant with my daughter and she has been with us ever since. She helped deliver my daughter at home and is a big part of the reason my birth experience was everything I dreamed and imagined it to be. One unforeseen benefit was truly how incredible her support and guidance was for my husband during labor and delivery in the sense that she helped him know what to do and when to do it in order to support me. It made our bond as a couple and our experience as a family all that much better. Stefanie helped with ligament pain late in pregnancy, healed my diastasis after delivery, and got my system operating properly postpartum. It is absolutely a myth that as women we should be expected to have dysfunctional bodies postpartum. I frequently refer my functional medicine patients to Stefanie and many of my family members and friends see her. I’ve yet to hear of a less than wonderful experience. You really can’t go wrong with Stef as your doula and/or pelvic floor PT!
Experiencia fantástica: Had a phone consultation with Stefanie. She's soooo amazing. Even though I'm in another state and can't see her in person, she was able to help me so much. She listened to my story, explaining my issues and concerns. Then she described is easy to follow detail what she believes is going on with my body. She explained that even though I have not yet been diagnosed with scar tissue from egg donation or endometriosis, that the answer for both is pelvic floor therapy or surgery. She was able to recommend me to a therapist local to me. I'm so grateful. I don't feel alone or like I have to live with this. Thank you Dr Stefanie!!
Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing her for pelvic floor and bladder issues. She listens to her patients and makes you feel that the issues are not in your head. She is knowledgeable and professional. She helped me understand what I was feeling and how to communicate to my drs. Without her advice and help I would still be going around in circles with the doctors. Thanks to her I have a new diagnosis and a therapy plan. She has helped me understand my body more and how to listen to my body for issues starting. I would not be as functioning without her. I can't thank her enough for all the help, advice and time she has given to help me and continues to help me. I recommend her to anyone with issues. She is beyond the best.
Experiencia fantástica: I had horrible scar tissue pain after an unplanned C section that I had been suffering from for 2 years. Went to see Stefanie and felt better within just a few sessions! I also had been struggling to get pregnant and Stefanie helped loosen restrictions to get things flowing and we were able to conceive shortly after. Now I’ve been seeing her for over a year and a half and used her as my doula for my second birth! I so look forward to my sessions with her - always a true relaxing and healing experience! Highly recommend!
Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie is the best! She is knowledgeable, professional, kind and effective in her work. I saw her for a few reasons: First for some urinary incontinence because, after three kids, I found out that you don't have to pee a little every time you sneeze just because you had a baby! People always said either that was just how mom life is, or that I just needed to do more kegals. Well, Stephanie helped me understand that if some of the pelvic floor muscles are always too tight, then kegals actually make incontinence worse until you care for those muscles, get them adjusted. I saw her for twelve sessions and it worked! During the time I saw her to help with incontinence, I was pregnant with Baby4. The body has a lot to do during pregnancy! The pelvic floor work helped me be more confortable during the pregnancy, and that preparation helped birth go very smoothly! She understood physiological birth, how everything is supposed to go for birth - did you know the cervix will actually dilate to more than 10cm? That 10cm is just as far as the doctor or midwife can measure reaching in? I didn't, but Stephanie did! So don't worry about cervical checks, and only push when you feel pushy, give your body that time to really be ready! Strephanie also taught me some stripe stretches and exercises to do during pregnancy and birthing. I am convinced that these helped my body be more prepared for birth as well as well as help the birth go more quickly!! I also saw her for postpartum care. She helped close the abdominal muscles, taking care of diastisus recti. She can also take care of any scaring from perineal tares. Overall, excellent experience! I will definitely see her again for any pelvic floor issues, and to help prepare for any future births! :)
Experiencia fantástica: Stefanie was so helpful to me throughout my pregnancy, labor and birth of my son . She was always available to answer any questions I have had , and there were many! She helped me to stay comfortable while pregnant, by providing prenatal visits to help realign my hips . During my labor and birth she was so calming and reassuring . I could’ve have done it without her! She is amazing!
