Hi! I’m Hannah Manik, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Pelvic Health Coach
I created Blush PT & Pelvic Wellness because I wanted to offer the kind of support I wish had existed for myself- care that is compassionate, holistic, and deeply attuned to each person’s unique story + needs.
I believe in your body’s remarkable capacity to heal, and I know that most pelvic floor concerns are highly treatable (see our list). Even if you’ve “failed” PT before, you may benefit from my approach, which is less about checking boxes or doing pages of tedious exercises, and more about learning to intuitively understand your body, listen to the messages it’s sending, and respond in a way that feels sustainable and empowering.
My goal is to provide high-quality, personalized support that honors both the science and the lived experience of pelvic health, so you can reconnect with your body and move forward with confidence.
MY STORY
I became interested in pelvic health while getting my Doctor of Physical Therapy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. As a student, I enrolled in specialized training courses through the Herman and Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute and the rest was history.
Through over 6 years of clinical practice, my passion (and patient waitlist) have grown immensely. I’ve learned as much from my patients as I have from my coursework. My treatments became more comprehensive, intuitive, and effective. I became the doctor who hears you, sees you, and believes in your capacity to heal holistically.
But I faced a major issue. Working for insurance-based clinics and hospitals limited the quality of care I could provide. Between arbitrary visit limits, restrictions on treating more than one body part at a time, and endless hours begging insurers to provide my patients appropriate coverage (often to no avail), it was time for me to go my own way. To create a space that truly aligned with my treatment approach. Thus, Blush Physical Therapy and Pelvic Wellness was born.
We can succeed where the medical system has failed you. Work with me 1:1 in person or virtually and together we can find out what your new life looks like.
MY PHILOSOPHY
My biggest passion is helping others heal from chronic pain and taboo pelvic floor conditions. I break barriers around TMI topics to empower us to overcome shame and attune to the inner wisdom of our own bodies.
Why do I love pelvic floor therapy so much? Because it works! My unique approach combines exercise, hands-on treatment, education, and powerful mindset shifts to get to the root cause of your suffering. In addition to getting relief from your problem, you will gain internal body wisdom that will last you a lifetime.
I believe that everyone deserves expert guidance, no matter where they live or what their schedule looks like— that’s why we now offer Pelvic Health Coaching options to make support more accessible.
When I’m not working with clients, you can catch me sailing at HYC, traveling to far away places, gardening, bird watching, or snuggling with my kitty, Bobo, who is the official clinic mascot.
