Owner & Founder / Pelvic Floor Therapist

Beth Anderson, MS, OTR/L, PCES

Beth is an Occupational Therapist who specializes in women’s health and the pelvic floor. Beth attended Towson University and graduated Cum Laude in 2014 with her Bachelors Degree in Occupation and Well-Being followed by her Masters Degree in Occupational Therapy in 2015. She has completed advanced post-graduate training and certificate coursework in women’s health and pelvic floor therapy. Beth is also a certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist.

Beth became interested in pelvic floor therapy during her first pregnancy when she realized how important and integral it was to have understanding and connection to the pelvic floor for pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. She realized Occupational Therapy was an excellent fit for treating pelvic floor dysfunction because of it's complex nature; understanding the pelvic floor requires a whole body and client-centered approach taking into account physical, emotional, and environmental factors in which OTs have unique skill and expertise. Practical Pelvis was founded in 2021 when Beth decided she wanted to reduce the gap in pelvic health services women were receiving during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

Beth currently lives in Brookeville, Maryland with her husband, 3 daughters (Hannah, Isla, and Emma), and dog Oliver. She enjoys spending her time outdoors and horseback riding. Beth competed in sports throughout her life including Division 1 collegiate lacrosse. Beth has knowledge and a passion for exercise and helping women resume, maintain, and/or start their exercise or athletic goals.
