“I believe that pelvic floor physical therapy is a collaboration between patient and practitioner. I may have the tools to help guide you, but I’m always honored to be a part of the journey.”
Jillian Giannini, PT, DPT Founder of LIA Pelvic Health
Meet Jillian Giannini
Jillian’s love for pelvic health started during her final clinical internship at Hoag Hospital at their pelvic health clinic. With the help of her amazing mentor, Mona Espanola, PT, DPT, WCS and experiencing the joy of talking about pee, poop, and sex with her patients, she had found a home in the specialty. With the understanding of how vulnerable pelvic health is, she felt so rewarded to see her patients display confidence and empowerment. Jillian continued her journey in the pelvic health world working with clinicians that she admired in the field, Heather Jeffcoat, DPT at Fusion Wellness/Femina Physical Therapy and Stephanie Prendergast, MPT and Elizabeth Akincilar, MSPT at Pelvic Health and Rehabilitation Center. Jillian is so grateful to have learned and grown to the clinician she is today with the help of her mentors along the way.
Although pelvic health physical therapy is a huge part of Jillian’s life, she also likes to spend time with family, hiking, dancing, working out, doing yoga/pilates, and drawing. You can check out some of her drawings on her instagram @dr.g_dpt !
