Board-Certified · Real Talk · No Shame
I'm Dr. Kendra, your Pelvic PT Auntie. I'm here to talk about the stuff your doctor rushes through: bladders, bowels, food, and the floor that holds it all up. Grab a seat at the table.
Common? Yes. Normal? No, baby. That's your pelvic floor waving a white flag, and it's fixable. Let's talk about it.
Fifteen-plus years in clinical practice, including teaching the next generation as adjunct faculty, taught me one thing: nobody talks about the pelvic floor until something goes wrong, and even fewer people talk about how it connects to the mind. This is the one place that fixes that: the cookbook, the card game, the clinical library, and the hands-on care, all under one roof.
I'm Dr. Kendra Garrett, PT, DPT, WCS, a board-certified Women's Clinical Specialist with over 15 years of clinical experience, including teaching as adjunct faculty at the collegiate level. From Plate to Pelvis was born from a simple belief: healing starts at the table.
Auntie's Wisdom
Is leaking normal after kids?
Common, not normal. Your pelvic floor is trainable at any age, even 20 years postpartum.
Can food really affect my bladder?
Absolutely. Bladder irritants hide in your favorite coffee, citrus, and spice. Let's map yours.
Do I need Kegels or the opposite?
Half the people doing Kegels actually need to relax, not squeeze. Let's find out which camp you're in.
Is my anxiety connected to my pelvic pain?
Often, yes. That's the whole idea behind the Mind-Pelvis Connection: your body keeps the score too.
What even is GeniTALES?
A card game that makes pelvic health conversation actually fun, no lecture, just laughs and real talk.
