ABOUT ME
After welcoming my first child, I eagerly returned to my pre-pregnancy wardrobe within
six months, feeling a sense of accomplishment at my quick “Bounce-back.”
Little did I know that I had only shed pounds, I hadn’t regained my strength or endurance.
Hey,
I am Dr. Ruchi Shah, a Physical Therapist with over 12 years of hands-on experience in the field, including 6 of them as a Pelvic floor therapist.
My specializations in Orthopedics (OCS) and Postpartum Exercises (PCES) has given me the opportunity to help 100's of Moms in their Postpartum Recovery.
Now, I am fortunate enough to extend my reach worldwide through my virtual offerings.
I help 0-5 yearsTIME-CONSTRAINED postpartum Mom’s shed inches and keep it off for good, strengthen their core and pelvic floor, stop peeing in their pants, and feel confident in their skin.
Though I was in my Pre-pregnancy pants in less than 6 months the 1st time, I experienced multiple symptoms down the road.
That’s when I realized "I had just lost pounds, I did not heal my Postpartum body the right way."
​
So, the second time around it was time for REFORMATION.
​
I ditched the traditional route of recovery and hit the RESET button. I dug deep into the BASICS, troubleshooted customized every move, to achieve optimal form and posture.
​
So,
Here I am ready to share over a decade's worth of experience, expertise, and learning's from my own recovery to help you navigate yours.
​
I will be in the trenches with you as you take action and undergo your own REFORMATION!
​
Apart from soaking into the daily chaos I love to go on hikes, dance to Bollywood beats, and be silly with my kids.
Good quality coffee and beer at the "non-negotiables"
in my life.
What brings you joy amidst life’s hustle?
I would love to hear from you.
