Hey there! My name is Ariel Gallop and I’m a doctor of physical therapy with specialized training in pelvic therapy. I grew up in Austin, Texas but moved to California for the beach bonfires (and grad school). I got into the PT profession after getting into a pretty bad boating accident. I was in PT for over a year relearning to walk and got to see many different types of PT. I was fascinated by the various facets of PT. I love getting to meet people where they are and walk alongside them on their journey to living their best life. I am passionate about pelvic therapy because it provides a holistic approach to treat all people with inclusive care that finds the driver of their pain or dysfunction. I started Restore Pelvic Therapy because I wanted to be able to provide patient centric care, that is evidence based, and alter my plan of care based on what the patients need instead of what was strictly outlined by insurance companies. My passion in life is getting to work with people to improve their function in order to fully participate in life’s best moments. I want you to always feel empowered and heard. I am passionate about pelvic therapy because I believe everyone should live a symptom free life with dignity and without having to settle for "living with it". At Restore Pelvic Therapy we treat everything from male or female pelvic pain, urinary stress or fecal incontinence, urgency and frequency, constipation or IBS, prolapse or hernias, people that are pregnant or postpartum, DRA (diastasis recti), painful bladder syndrome, pelvic congestion syndrome, post abdominal or pelvic surgeries (i.e. excision surgery, hysterectomy, prostatectomy, C-section, etc) and more! When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, reading the next book club hit, walking along the beach listening to true crime podcasts, or biking around looking for the best burrito.

Hey there, I'm Joy! I believe that childbirth is the closest thing we have to actual magic on this planet, and it's such a shame to me that we seem to be forgetting how amazing it can be.

As a postpartum doula, I’m committed to offering gentle, reliable support that helps your family feel grounded, confident, and truly cared for after birth. I believe it truly does take a village! Through my own journey with a spirited toddler, I’ve experienced firsthand how transformative (and challenging) the shift into parenthood can be. For the past two years I have worked as a full-spectrum doula, now devoting most of my practice to supporting families in the postpartum period, and have had the privilege of serving more than fifty postpartum families. My calling to this work is deeply personal. Having lost my own mother during adolescence, I grew into my maternal nature early. That experience shaped my understanding of how essential nurturing, presence, and steady support truly are, especially during the vulnerable days and weeks after birth. I bring that perspective into every home I serve. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and practical. I aim to create a calm, affirming space where parents can rest, heal, learn, and feel genuinely cared for. At the heart of my work is a simple mission: to make a meaningful difference for families during one of the most tender and powerful transitions of their lives.

I am a full spectrum doula, I take birth and/or postpartum clients. My goal to provide a space where clients and their supportive partners feel safe to surrender and know they will be supported and advocated for.

I’ve been a labor and delivery nurse for the past 7 years and have attended over 1600 births. I’ve worked at three top hospitals including Cedar Sinai in Beverly Hills, Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach, and Scripps hospital, La Jolla. I am a RNC-OB, registered nurse certified in obstetrics as well as a lactation education counselor. I’ve taught labor and delivery at the university level and find teaching very rewarding. Education is at the heart of women’s empowerment. At Rising Lotus Birth, I provide support to pregnant women throughout all phases of care including prenatal visits, birth doula services, and postpartum visits. You may be wondering why I became a doula while still practicing in the hospital setting. My explanation is always that over the years I’ve noticed an overwhelming need for more patient advocacy, education, and birth support in order to achieve better birth outcomes. Birth is my passion. My goal is to help you achieve a better birth and postpartum experience!
