Lady Bits Physical Therapy

Helping you get your bits "back to normal" with skilled physical therapy, love, compassion, and education. 

Welcome to Lady Bits Physical Therapy.  This is not your typical physical therapy office. This is the place where we talk about everything 'down there' you don't normally share with your friends. The first step is taking shame or embarrassment out of the subject. Lets be real ladies- our moms never really told us the details of what goes on down there. We are often left wondering, "what's normal?" when it comes to our lady bits.

What is a pelvic floor? It is 3 layers of muscles and fascia that are designed to provide support to your pelvis and organs, control sphincteric actions- think pee and poo, sexual functioning, stabilize the pelvis during all movements, pump lymph fluids, and have an integral role in posture and breathing.

The office is designed to feel less clinical, offering a cozy healing space to ease and enhance your journey.

Hello! I am the owner and primary therapist for Lady Bits Physical Therapy. I grew up in northern California's beautiful Humboldt County filled with huge trees, and loving parents who supported my love of playing the harp from the age of 9. In my early 20's I suffered a serious back injury and many years of chronic pain. Thanks to my brother, a skilled physical therapist, I experienced true pain relief and a renewed belief in my body's ability to heal. Having already obtained a music and biology degree from Holy Names University in 2005, I headed back to graduate school at CSU Long Beach, graduating in 2012. I have since worked in general orthopedics and skilled nursing with Alzheimer's Care before dedicating my career to serving women. I am honored and dedicated to work with every lady trusting me with her special bits. Having experienced pelvic floor dysfunction myself, I can relate to your experiences, frustrations, pains, and feelings of isolation. As I learn and grow as a therapist (because a good therapist never stops learning) I will always seek to improve my skills and knowledge so that every woman I treat can have the very best that she deserves.

Hi there, I’m Tybel Dombrowski and I am overjoyed to be joining Lady Bits Physical Therapy! I feel fortunate to be joining a practice that supports and empowers women through education and skilled therapy. I’m a licensed occupational therapist with a background working with physical disabilities in a skilled nursing setting. However, my personal health journey, birth of a child and experience with pelvic floor therapy has led me to focus my career on women’s health. I know first hand how impactful pelvic floor dysfunction and pain can be and am thrilled to work with women to meet their goals and improve their quality of life. Health is multi-dimensional and my training as an occupational therapist allows me to focus on each individual and what is important to them. I look forward to working with you on meeting your goals and helping you to care for your lady bits.

Andrea Johnson, OT

Hi! I grew up in the Canadian Rocky Mountains and moved to California as a young adult in search of adventure. I graduated as an Occupational Therapist from the University of Alberta and have been licensed in California since 2007. I spent most of my career working in medical rehab. My interest in post-partum care was initiated by the birth of my first child in 2015. After the birth of my second child in 2019, my own need for postpartum rehab and pelvic floor therapy led me to Lady Bits Physical Therapy, and with it the answer to how I could be a part of giving women the care, support, and healing they deserve. 

As an Occupational Therapist, I approach your care looking at the daily activities that pelvic floor issues are interfering with and focus treatment on getting back to pain-free experiences having sex, bowel and bladder function, and taking care of your family.
