Get Relief

Pelvic health concerns often involve more than one system: movement, nutrition, rest, and stress are all connected.

Usually, more than one system is involved.

A wellness option for women

Functional health and pelvic wellness programs designed to help women understand and restore balance through life’s transitions—from pregnancy to perimenopause and beyond.

Pelvic Wellness & Functional Health: Serving the Greater Cleveland and Akron Areas and virtually nationwide

Redefining women’s wellness through curiosity, context, and connection.

Support your symptoms so you start feeling better.

At the same time work on the root cause

I Believe

I believe that healthcare shouldn’t start with a diagnosis; it should start with curiosity. Wellness shouldn’t be the last step in recovery; it should be the first step in prevention. And women deserve more than rushed appointments and disconnected care. They deserve time, context, and connection.

Tara Moore, PT, DPT

Our Practice

  • At Obsidian, we have reimagined healthcare to be proactive and personalized. You will receive comprehensive annual and follow-up sessions, supported by ongoing robust communication services all year. You can expect consistent support, without long wait lists or interruptions in your care.

  • Patient-centered care: Promoting health as a positive vitality, beyond just the absence of disease.

    An Integrative, science-based healthcare approach: Considers the unique, complex web of interactions of the patient’s physiology and lifestyle along with both internal and external factors that affect total functioning.

    A combination of best practices: Integration of a variety of support strategies focusing on restorative care, and prevention through nutrition, diet, and exercise for optimal wellness.

  • Food is energy. At the most basic level, food is a fuel source necessary for the body to function.

    Food is information. Byproducts of food assist with various bodily processes: metabolism, hormones, detoxification, etc., and convey messages about your functioning.

    Food is a connection. Food brings people together, often as a central focus of social gatherings and celebratory events. The reasons behind food choices, cravings, and aversions aren’t always logical or rational, and these reasons can often be tied back to our relationships with food.

    Food is medicine. We are what we eat. Foods and food behaviors influence the body and can contribute to underlying symptoms. These factors can be adjusted to move an individual toward health and healing. Choosing nutrient-dense foods that send support (not destruction) to the body is critical for optimal health.

  • Movement is vital: We know more than ever how important movement is for our overall health. The key is creating safe movement strategies that allow your body to move effectively in your current state.

    Movement is Specific: Learn how posture, breath, and body mechanics influence how you feel and move through life.

    Movement is limited: Through guided awareness and simple movements, reconnect with your body’s natural rhythms and restore a sense of ease in your daily routine.
