“Words cannot express the relief I felt when I discovered Dynamic Flow Physical Therapy. After working for sometime with a different physical therapist, I gave up out of frustration of not making progress or healing. I soon after discovered Dynamic Flow, which is conveniently located near downtown Ventura and I haven’t looked back. I started working with Jackie and she immediately put together a plan to help with my pudendal nerve pain. She was not phased by my complicated history and worked diligently to help determine the root cause of my pain. We use multiple modalities, many of which were new to me and worked extremely well on my nerve pain and the quality of life it was stealing from me. She identified early on that much of my problem stemmed from earlier surgeries where I never addressed myofascial scarring, and the implications that can come from not working with someone like her soon after surgery. We made so much progress even after two visits that I instantly made sure to make regular appointments and be consistent for the biggest impact. The education, training & experience of the physical therapists at Dynamic Flow and the professionalism of all staff is impressive and it shows in the care and personal approach they take to each patient. It is absolutely criminal that doctors do not require patients to see therapists like the ones at Dynamic Flow. Be your own best advocate & do everything in your power to get here. Everyone deserves the healing and renewed confidence in their body that is provided by seeing people like Jackie at Dynamic Flow.”

“I came in for Pelvic pain after hysterectomy and bladder sling. My care has been different than prior physical therapy experiences since sessions are not rushed. Laura is very kind and caring and knows what she’s doing. She knows the anatomy and what treatments will work. I experienced some results within a couple weeks. Results are ongoing as it’s nerve damage issues. I can now run my dog in agility, Fish, Walk on the beach and do pretty much everything. Laura is very knowledgeable and caring. Great personality, great bedside manner. She listens to you and works with you extremely well. She’s great. The office is nice, it’s clean and well maintained. Plenty of privacy too.”

In fewer than five sessions, Dr. Currens helped me get back into the world. I endured 18 months of life-altering stress incontinence following a partial hysterectomy at age 48. The video clips she provides after each appointment help me perform my exercises correctly at home. I am so grateful to have her optimism and expertise on my side.

“Dr. Laura and Dr. Tiffany have helped me tremendously! Recently, I had bladder lift surgery at the recommendation of a urologist. Since then, I've had bladder retention and UTI's due to a tight pelvic floor because of the surgery. My urologist simply told me to do kegels and not to drink very much water to make things better. Wow! It was clear that this man did not know much about the female anatomy, so I went to Dynamic Flow Therapy for help. Dr Laura was thorough, patient and empathetic to my problem. She worked with me and helped me loosen my pelvic floor, and let me stay hydrated in the process, as it should be. She has educated me and helped me more that any traditional doctor has ever! After three months of working with her and her staff, I find that I do not need another surgery and am grateful. I now believe that pelvic floor therapy should be a regular part of a woman's healthcare. I could not recommend her services more!”

I began seeing Laura because I had months of abdominal pain after beginning birth control and was started on treatments for endometriosis. The OBGYN I saw to begin my treatment noticed that, beyond endometriosis, I had some muscle tightness that was contributing to debilitating pain whenever I exercised and even occasionally prevented me from being able to walk around my school's campus without severe pain. My Doctor recommended Dynamic Flow Physical Therapy to me because of the fascial involvement she noticed during my exam and thought that, in addition to adjusting my hormones, I needed some physical work as well. This experience was different than the care I received before because I felt like the things I was struggling with were evaluated as a part of a larger system (my whole body) rather than an isolated problem. I felt cared for a lot more holistically and definitely grew to have a lot more awareness of my body and what makes it feel good. I experienced results very quickly and felt much less tightness, even at my second appointment. I was able to go on vacation and participate in a lot of activities that would have been nearly impossible for me to do without pain, even three weeks before. Now I am able to walk around my campus, stand to fold laundry for long periods of time, hike, run, ride my horse, and do any activity I would like to do pain-free. Another valuable thing I learned in Dynamic Flow Physical Therapy is how to help my body when I do experience pain, whether it is different ways to realign my hips or how to release tension I am holding. I'm now confident in my ability to avoid pain on my own after all of the help and work from Laura. I recommend Dynamic Flow to anyone looking for a holistic assessment of their pain and to people who want to enjoy the activities that make them happy without the fear that they will be in pain. You will know a lot more about your body and what it needs after starting treatment at Dynamic Flow.

“I came in to see Laura after 4 years of pelvic pain and many more years of chronic low back pain. I had mild pain with everyday activities, like playing with my son, and severe pain with intercourse. It made it so hard for me to want to do those things because I knew that the pain would be there. I had seen a different pelvic floor physical therapist prior to the birth of my son. The difference between my experiences was in the comprehensiveness of Laura's evaluation. Instead of focusing on a diagnosis, Laura took the time to analyze my movement, palpate the quality of painful muscles, and gather information about my past that made the whole plan of care very personalized. Better yet, she did so in a way that made me inspired. I was really all in with the plan of care because I was so encouraged to see how thoughtful Laura was in determining what would work best for me! It took 5 visits total (including the evaluation) to see results. Actually, I started seeing results on day 1. I knew I would reach the finish line in no time. I 10/10 would recommend, and already have, anybody to Laura that wants to feel results that matter! Thank you Laura.”

“I found Laura last fall as I was looking for a pelvic therapist. I used to be a marathon runner but after having complications with my kidney transplant in 2008 and multiple abdominal and hernia surgeries after that, I had to stop running due to severe incontinence. To be honest, I had low expectations because prior pelvic therapists told me basically to do Kegels while transplant doctors told me to stop running. I was willing to give Laura a try because I saw her extensive orthopedic background and she was active herself. From the first intake visit, I knew Laura was different. She took the time to listen about my medical and lifestyle background, what I had stopped doing activity/sport wise and what was important to me to regain a sense of self. We put a plan in place which included myofascial massage to release years of surgery scars, targeted pelvic strengthening and realignment exercises. She also gave me customized home exercises I did daily, which we incrementally built upon as the weeks progressed. Within 3 months of working together, I was able to run a 5km and hike 10 miles without needing a thick pad. I was overjoyed and so grateful! I now tell all my girlfriends that pelvic therapy works if you have the right therapist. Highly recommend Laura!!

I injured my hip and SI joint surfing over a year ago. Since that time it had not responded much to various treatments. I saw Laura a couple weeks ago and after just the 1st session I felt like a new person. I've since had 2 follow ups and am 80% recovered. She really takes the time to tune in to your body and pinpoint and resolve subtle muscular issues to bring you back into balance. The exercises she prescribed are super gentle yet have already had a profound impact on my core strength. Its unlike any bodywork I've ever received. Top tier!!!

“I came to see Laura for help with chronic lower back, genital and pelvic pain issues. After many years in regular physical therapy without success and feeling out of options for my pain, I sought out pelvic floor therapy with Laura. In just a handful of sessions I have learned a great deal about my own body, and she has helped me to approach my healing journey with a more expansive understanding of how it functions and what my unique needs are. Laura is an extremely competent, intuitive, and kind practitioner, able to specialize my treatment in a progress-oriented way to my body and my needs. I'm quickly beginning to regain strength and to make adjustments to posture, movement and muscle control. I always look forward to our sessions! Her focus and positivity are contagious in what otherwise had long felt like a hopeless situation for me. If you are on the fence about starting treatment, don't hesitate! “

“I feel so blessed to have found this place! Last year I dislocated my tailbone in a hard fall. It was a few months after giving birth so everything was very malleable and the way I fell just completely made my tailbone point sideways. I couldn't sit for long without feeling numb or cold or pain down there. I couldn't walk or exercise or do anything without feeling it. It was incredibly uncomfortable at best and painful at my worst times. I had actually given up on getting it fixed after going to an urgent care and being told I was "just born like that" and that there was nothing wrong, and they were "not going to refer me anywhere". It's really upsetting basically being told you're just crazy or stupid when you go to get something fixed medically. I had a really hard day a few months ago where I was desperate for relief on my back and when I researched places around Ventura I found Dynamic Flow. I called and Laura was quick to listen and reassure me that they could fix it just as they have fixed many displaced tailbones before me. Apparently, this is a relatively common condition which my urgent care doctor clearly didn't realize. I went in and was seen by Andrea, who listened to all of my concerns and checked me out and sure enough, my tailbone was sideways like I had told my first doctor. It took 6 or 7 appointments but sure enough she was able to put it back in to place with a combination of massages and also exercises which were specifically designed to strengthen and keep my tailbone in place. I came in last week for my final appointment and everything was perfect. I am so thankful to Andrea and Laura and Dynamic Flow for helping me and healing my condition. I really was afraid I would have to live with that problem forever and I was especially afraid of getting pregnant and having serious problems if I didn't fix my tailbone. Thank you so much for helping me!!”

I saw Laura during my pregnancy and into postpartum with my first baby and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Throughout my pregnancy she addressed my various pains, giving me the tools to keep my body strong at every stage and to prepare me for delivering my baby with minimal pelvic floor trauma. Postpartum, she performed a full evaluation and coached me through the recovery of my pelvic floor, abdominal muscles, and overall strength. Amazingly, by 9 weeks postpartum I had no pain with intercourse! I highly recommend pelvic floor physical therapy with Laura to all my friends who are either pregnant or struggling with postpartum recovery.
