Pregnancy and childbirth have effects the female musculoskeletal system. Formore than 30 years, I have been studying the research and providing the evidence based care for women during pregnancy and postpartum. I am an expert in caring for low back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and pelvic floor symptoms during pregnancy and postpartum, and I am especially interested in helping women with hyper-mobility syndrome diagnoses(EDS/HSD), and women with multiple gestation pregnancies, whom I believe should have a qualified pelvic physical therapist on their care team throughout pregnancy and postpartum. You must be a Mayo Clinic patient to request a consult with me.

Hello, my name is Macey. I have been married to my husband for 17 years. I have two teenage children that are my pride in joy. I was born in Jacksonville Florida and lived there for 6 years. I then moved to Saint Augustine to help my family take care of my beloved grandfather (Pe-Paw.) I lived in Saint Augustine for 28 years and recently moved to Palm Coast Florida. My journey to becoming a doula started as a child with my obsession with the “A Baby Story” tv show on the TLC channel. Life took a different path when I became a teen mom. Now the path has brought me back and I am overjoyed to be working with pregnant women. A long-term goal for me is to become a Midwife. Some of my hobbies include baking, hiking, gardening, and knitting.

My name is Gabrielle and I’m from Central Florida . I started this journey of birth world years ago when I gave birth to my son. As the years passed the birth world just stood out to me little by little. Becoming a Doula was something that I thought about but after witnessing my first birth with a family member that is where it sparked the fire . I attended a Dona training and other trainings that helped me get  certified as a doula and with placenta encapsulation. I have also birth assisted for a few years with local midwives . I continue to grow with every birth that I have been blessed to be a part of . It brings me joy to know i can help the  birth world one person at a time.
