pelvic floor physical therapy for women of all ages in the conejo valley.

Cappuccino Physical therapy is the place to go!

During my last few session before birth I was provided with patient education on breathing in the various positions that birth can be done in, I was given tactile and proper cueing for reinforcement of proper breathing and recruitment of the pelvic floor. I was provided with a series of hip opening exercises/stretches to help during the different phases of labor and different positions to be in as labor progress.

Through the education and visit prior to birth, I was able to push my baby out in 3 pushes with no tearing and no bearing down. And a fairly decent recovery post birth. I essentially breathed my baby out which is vastly different than my first baby whom had to be vacuumed out.

I wish I would have gone to Rachael/cappuccino PT for my first birth to decrease the postpartum healing that I endured.

I am so happy I found Cappuccino Physical Therapy and luckier that Gigi was available! She made a nerve racking situation light and easy. She shows great care in her patients and demonstrates helpful pelvic floor exercises along side you and recordings to help at home. I really appreciate the day of reminders and the flexibility when an emergency popped up.

I’ve been seeing Rachael and Gigi for several months now after having a c-section and I’ve seen such great improvement in my core and pelvic floor! While Dr. Rachael has been out on leave I’ve been seeing Dr. Gigi and she’s been amazing. So easy to chat with and she always records our exercises with clear instructions for me which absolutely has helped set me up for success on doing my core work at home. The cupping massage on my c-section scar has been such a game changer. I’m finally feeling confident enough to return to exercise with good form and foundation and it’s absolutely thanks to Dr. Gigi!

Rachael is amazing! She helped me navigate through my pregnancy and post partum period and feel comfortable with the exercises I was doing knowing what would help my pelvic floor. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she makes you feel so comfortable during each session. I firmly believe by consistently working with Rachael I was able to get back to feeling like myself so much faster!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about my experience with postpartum pelvic floor PT at Cappuccino Physical Therapy!

I decided to explore PT post having my son last year because I was concerned about abdominal separation and not healing it properly ahead of getting back to my normal workout routine. Additionally, I had a c section and wanted to get ahead of healing my scar. I have been consistently seeing Rachael since around 6 weeks PP and it was the best decision I could have made. I feel so strong in my core region and my incision area has no numbness or pain - I truly believe the weekly/monthly/etc PT visits are to thank for that.

Rachael is so knowledgeable and has the best bedside manner, she taught me so many ways to be mindful of my core and breathing to ensure I was easing into exercise in the safest way after having my son. I can’t recommend her enough!
—Lacey S.

I’m so thankful I found Dr. Rachael for postpartum PT. It’s really hard to describe how much this therapy has helped me. As a yoga instructor, I thought I could “bounce back” with standard workouts but I was not seeing great progress on my own. After a handful of sessions at Cappuccino PT, I feel strong in my workouts, I’m more confident about my body and I’m even running again! 🏃‍♀️Dr. Rachael is friendly, knowledgeable, supportive and so easy to talk to. I was reluctant at first because my insurance wouldn’t cover my visits but the investment was 110% worth it because I feel so much more like myself again!

Rachael helped me prepare for my third delivery and is currently helping with my postpartum recovery. She is extremely knowledgeable and caring. It has so been helpful to get guidance from someone who is in the same season of life! Every woman needs a Rachael in their life!!
—Shirley S.

Rachael has been absolutely amazing in helping me after the birth of my second child. She's so knowledgeable and really takes the time to look at the whole picture. She's extremely caring, and easy to talk to. I'm so glad I found Rachael!
—Jessie S.

I saw Rachael for postpartum pelvic floor physical therapy. Our appointments were always fun and very intentional. She runs the practice on her own, so there's no time spent with anyone other than her. She is encouraging, understanding, and very knowledgable. I have a host of tools I can use to manage my core and pelvic floor health, and I intend on seeing her after any future pregnancies.
—Hollie M.

Rachael has helped me so much in my postpartum recovery. There is no way I’d be where I’m at now without her. I just wish I started seeing her while I was pregnant. The best!
—Mary A.

Since my c-section over 3 years ago I’ve had terrible scar pain with swelling and puffiness. Rachael has helped me so much - and with more than just my scar. I highly recommend! I’m just sad it took me so long to discover pelvic floor PT, especially since I had been complaining to my PCP for a long time about symptoms that can be treated. It’s not too late my friends. Go see Rachael.
—Alivia S.

I have seen quite a few Pelvic Floor PTs postpartum and Rachael is, in my opinion, the best! I struggled with leaking while working out. Rachael is extremely skilled and knowledgeable. She is constantly staying up to date with the newest information and has helped me tremendously. I will definitely continue seeing her during and after my next pregnancies!
—Meghan S.

Rachel not only got me back on my feet, physically, post-labor and delivery, but she got me feeling back to normal. I completely strained my back during labor and she fixed me in no-time. She was extremely gentle, knowledgeable, and patient with me which is what I needed. Hopefully I don’t need to come back for any pain, but if I do, there’s no question that Rachel is who I’d call.
—Emma L.

Absolutely adore Rachael! I came to her about 5 months postpartum after feeling like something was just off in my recovery from having my 2nd child. Sure enough there were a few issues needing to be address (including Diastasis Recti) that OB and others failed to identify. Finally able to build strength again and get back into running—and train for my first half marathon! Rachael makes you feel so comfortable, and you can truly see the deep passion she has for her work and her patients.

Dr. Rachael Cappuccino made a world of difference for me, after each of my children's births. After my first C-section, I lived with a lot of abdominal pain near my scar for months. Rachael relieved a lot of that pain with just one visit! I knew I would see her again after my second C-section and scheduled my first apt with her after my 6 week OB apt. I've been seeing her for the past 8 months off and on to work on issues from my second c section. Rachael is super knowledgeable, patient, kind, and helpful. She's a mom and knows ALL the stuff that happens to our bodies. There's no shame in handling these issues. I'm so thankful for her!
— Ella B.

Rachael is extremely knowledgeable, empathetic, and professional. I've been working post partum with her for 3+ months and the results I'm feeling are incredible. I've gained strength through my exercises and confidence in my body again. During each physical therapy session, Rachael consistently gives useful information, guidance, and encouragement. I highly recommend Cappuccino Physical Therapy!
— Kristen G.

Rachael made my postpartum recovery so much better and made it possible to get back to the things I love. She truly cares and is very knowledgeable. Thank you!!!
— Heidi C.

Rachael is so wonderful!! It was my first time with pelvic floor physical therapy and I was 7 months pregnant. I had some leakage going on and also low back pain. Rachael did a thorough examination and gave me exercises to help with my pelvic floor and lower back! It helped so much and highly recommend seeing her!
— Brittany J.

Would highly recommend Rachael! Wish I saw her sooner. She has been helping me as I prepare to have Baby #2 and her insights and exercises have made me more aware of things I didn’t know could be fixed! Every woman should see a pelvic floor therapist whether single, married, a mother, etc. and Rachael will make the experience a comfortable and worthwhile one.
— Shannon R.

Rachael was so knowledgeable. I saw her postpartum for a uterine prolapse and discomfort. Within a few session I was back to my recreational activities without discomfort. I highly recommend seeing Rachael pre and postpartum. I wish I had seen her sooner than I did.
— Kelsey S.

Rachael is amazing! She helped make me stronger, more comfortable and confident with my postpartum body. I learned to engage my core which helped me with my abdominal separation and helped me move more mindfully, effectively, and safely with my c-section scar. She checks in with you and makes your journey to recovery a welcoming and easy one with advice and exercises that are easy to incorporate into everyday life.
— Kyra F.

Dr. Rachael is so wonderful! She has such a caring touch and is so knowledgeable about the body, and specifically the pelvic floor. Rachael also is trained in Trauma-Informed ways, which is so important when caring for pre/during/post/pregnant people. When you need extra support for leakage, diastasis recti, and so much more, Rachael will take amazing care of you. She is kind and will make you feel at ease. Highly recommend her services!
— Mindy W.

I had been struggling with overactive bladder for years and seen multiple drs as well as gone through an experimental procedure to try and reduce symptoms with little to no relief. Most doctors just wanted to throw prescriptions at me, but Rachael took the time to understand the specific sensations I was having and after 2 sessions (1 virtual and 1 in person) I experienced the most relief from my symptoms EVER with no meds! It took a few months of work after that, with her guidance on breathing techniques, diet tweaks, and conscious elimination but I can honestly say I don’t feel like I have overactive bladder anymore! Or at least I don’t notice!!
—Lauren N.

Rachel has helped tremendously with my post partum recovery. 5 months post partum, and following a vacuum birth, I am now able to resume impact activities, perform day to day activities and be able to hold my baby without symptoms. She is truly helping my post partum recovering with gaining back my quality of life. I highly recommend seeing Rachel for pelvic floor PT pre pregnancy, during pregnancy and post pregnancy.
—Alex C.

Dr. Cappuccino is such a wealth of knowledge! She is so passionate about her work and cares so much about helping her patients. It took me three babies to realize how crucial pelvic floor therapy is postpartum. I was dealing with leakage during workouts and she helped me learn proper engagement of core and the pelvic floor.
—Megan M.

Rachael was so helpful in my recovery after my c-section. She's supportive and informative. Highly recommend!
—Morgan K.

Rachael is a fantastic physical therapist. She listened to my needs and has helped me tremendously. I wish I had known about pelvic floor therapy sooner. Rachael makes the whole appointment very comfortable. She’s great to talk to, always on time and very professional. I would recommend her to anyone considering PT!
—Becky D.

I highly recommend Rachael at Cappuccino Physical Therapy for her exceptional knowledge, kindness, and patience. As a doula, I consistently refer my pregnant clients to Rachael for pelvic floor health. The majority of my clients that have undergone therapy with Rachael have lead to better second stages of labor for them. It's worth noting that, having had two c-sections over 16 years ago, I recently discovered the benefits of pelvic floor therapy for women with surgical births. Just two sessions myself, I experienced significant improvements. Cappuccino Physical Therapy is excellent, offering transformative care for all birth experiences.
— Jill M.

Could not ask for a better experience with Dr. Cappuccino. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and smart, she’s incredibly caring and listens to all your concerns, while making you feel supported and so comfortable!
—Sepideh R.

I am so happy I found Rachael in my postpartum journey. I honestly wish I had found her sooner and seen her while I was pregnant. I feel much better knowing now that my body has been taken care of after giving birth. Thank you, Rachael!
—Kristin F.

Love Rachael! She’s a great PT who has done much needed work with my C Section scar and helped strengthen my pelvic floor muscles. Highly recommend everyone who gives birth to get checked out and learn how to improve your Pelvic floor muscles.
