Pelvic Floor & Orthopedic Physical Therapy in the Heart of Brooklyn

At Rachel Clausen Physical Therapy, I believe that healing begins with understanding. I provide comprehensive, compassionate care that treats not just the symptoms, but the whole person. My whole-body approach to therapy ensures that we address your unique needs, combining evidence-based practices with individualized care to guide you toward long-lasting results.

One-on-One Care

Rachel Clausen PT offers personalized 1:1 care in a welcoming and supportive environment, where you’ll always have my full attention. I focus on your unique goals and work with you to restore strength, mobility, and confidence.

Whole-Body Approach

I provide care that treats not just the symptoms, but the whole person, working to identify the root cause of your symptoms. I love my job because I get to work as a “detective” to learn how your body interacts with the world and why.

Creative and Collaborative

Every patient is different, and I am committed to building a strong, collaborative relationship with you. I will take the time to listen to your story, meet you where you are, and help guide you to where you want to go. Whether you're dealing with pelvic health issues or general orthopedic conditions, my goal is to empower you to feel confident and safe in your body.

Physical Therapy Services

Rachel Clausen PT offers in-clinic, telehealth, and home visit options to ensure you receive the care you need in the way that works best for you. Whether you prefer hands-on treatment in our clinic, the convenience of virtual sessions, or the comfort of being seen in your own home, I am here to meet you where you are—literally and figuratively.

Pelvic Health

I specialize in a wide range of pelvic symptoms including, but not limited to, bladder symptoms, abdomen and bowel symptoms, sexual health, and pelvic pain. I take a whole-body approach to restore comfort, strength, and confidence.

Pregnancy & Postpartum

Many people think pregnancy/postpartum pain, urinary leakage, and more are normal and something they need to learn to live with. You do not have to live with these symptoms! Physical therapy can treat pregnancy/postpartum related back pain, hip pain, urinary/bowel/sexual symptoms, and more. We can also work together on birth preparation in order to enter labor with confidence.

Orthopedic

Targeted therapy for musculoskeletal issues affecting the pelvis, hips, back, shoulder, and core. I combine orthopedic techniques with pelvic health expertise to restore mobility, function, and overall well-being.

Testimonials

  • "Dr. Rachel Clausen approaches treatment with care and great knowledge of pelvic floor health. I was seeking pelvic floor physical therapy in my last trimester of pregnancy to address a variety of symptoms and to prepare for birth. Within just two sessions, many of my symptoms were eased and I felt so much more confident about labor! I learned so much about my own anatomy and how to better care for myself leading up to giving birth (will be back postpartum). Can't recommend her enough!"

  • "Of all the PTs I’ve seen, Rachel takes the cake for warmth and effectiveness. We’ve tackled nerve impingements, acute injuries, and repetitive stress injuries. The manual work she does during in-person sessions brings immediate relief; the homework she assigns is manageable and ensures that what’s fixed stays fixed and what’s broken gets better. When I met Rachel I could not straighten my arm or raise it above shoulder height. I just wanted to do basic life things without pain. Today I’m back in yoga and ballet–activies I thought I’d never be able to do again. I highly recommend her."

  • "My OBGYN said my pain was normal after childbirth--despite my repeated complaints. Only after working with Dr. Clausen did I realzied how much pain I was in because it was finally gone. Deeply and forever thankful."

  • "I have worked with Rachel for many years and am beyond grateful to have her as part of my care team. She is incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate, and her ability to create a safe, supportive space has been invaluable in my healing journey. Whether you're navigating pelvic pain or seeking expert guidance for any pelvic health needs, Rachel is an amazing resource whom I highly recommend."
