“I want all people to know that urinary leaking is common, but not normal. Sexual intercourse shouldn’t cause pain. Using tampons shouldn’t be uncomfortable. Your prolapse symptoms can be helped. Your recurrent urinary tract infection symptoms may be a result of dysfunctional pelvic floor. Pelvic floor physical therapy isn’t just about kegels. It’s about learning how your whole body functions together for optimal bladder, bowel, and sexual well being. I am thrilled to bring my passion for pelvic health and this specialty to Axia.”

She is an active member of the American Physical Therapy Association, Pelvic Health Section and is currently Pennsylvania’s State Representative. In 2020, Gina was awarded the Vincent M.

Gina also helps conditions such as constipation, visceral immobilization, scar tissue restrictions, sacroiliac dysfunction, hip pain, urinary retention, and urinary/fecal urgency, frequency, and incontinence.
