Athena Pelvic Therapy

I never used to give reviews but started realizing how much people do read and make their decisions based on them. I cannot say enough good things about how much Juanita has helped me in just the few weeks I have been going to her. At my first visit she spent at least an hour talking and asking questions before the evaluation. She made me feel very comfortable and at ease. She is knowledgeable, professional and her personality is contagious. She has helped me realize exactly what "our core" is and how important it is for it to be strong and healthy. I look forward to learning more exercises and encourage anyone seeking pelvic floor therapy to reach out to her. Thank you Juanita, you truly are amazing and a blessing!!

I had the privilege of being treated by Juanita at Athena Pelvic Therapy, and I can't express enough how grateful I am for her expertise. Juanita is not only incredibly knowledgeable about pelvic health, but she also brings a level of compassion and professionalism that immediately put me at ease. Throughout my sessions, she was consistently attentive and empathetic, making sure I felt comfortable and supported. Her skills and techniques were highly effective in addressing my concerns. I truly felt like I could trust her with my pelvic health, and I highly recommend Juanita to anyone seeking pelvic therapy.

I was referred to the Pelvic Guru website by my surgeon at Mayo Clinic. After reviewing the site, I chose Juanita Benedict for her qualifications. On my very first visit she performed a thorough physical exam and listened to what I had to say about my condition and symptoms. She understood that I had been to another physical therapist who treated me using exercises that were not for my condition, and in fact were counter to my condition. She knew what to do, and set up a program to help me feel better. She uses an application that you download and follow the exercises. I would readily recommend Dr. Benedict to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate therapist.

I participated in a restorative yoga class. It was amazing! Just what I needed.

I was very unsure of what to expect at Athena. From my first visit Juanita explain what was to happen and we started. First it was a one on one treatment and remained so. I was very comfortable and looked forward to my next appointment. Juanita is very professional combined with kindness and laughter. If I was asked about Athena Pelvic Therapy it would be a glowing 10 star rating.

As someone who has been battling a pelvic floor dysfunction for years and has felt lost and discouraged at times. I would like to say a special “thank you” to Juanita, as you have given me my power back in ways I can’t explain. I had the privilege of undergoing physical therapy with an exceptional practitioner who has truly transformed my perspective on the healing journey. From the very first appointment, Juanita created an atmosphere of trust and empathy, immediately putting me at ease. Juanita's warm and caring demeanor made discussing personal health matters feel not only comfortable but also empowering. It was evident that Juanita approached her work with a deep understanding of the emotional aspects intertwined with physical healing. I highly recommend working with Juanita!

I searched high and low for a pelvic health PT that would work with children for my 4 year old daughter when I found Juanita and she far exceeded my expectations! My daughter suffered from chronic constipation for years and Juanita took the time and effort to consider her situation holistically to address issues impacting her beyond the physical aspect, such as anxiety around going to the bathroom. She carefully listened to both my and my daughter’s feedback and helped her to feel comfortable and heard throughout her time seeing her. She gave simple home exercise programs that were easy to fit within our normal routine and incorporated my daughter’s interests so they were more motivating to do outside of therapy. I am so thankful that we found Juanita and highly recommend her!

Dr Juanita Benedict is great! She is very knowledgeable, thorough, and caring. As a male dealing with the side effects of a radical prostatectomy she makes you fell comfortable talking about uncomfortable topics.
