FOUNDER + OWNER
Hi! I am Allison and I am a board-certified Occupational Therapist licensed in Iowa and Illinois and a Certified Lactation Counselor. I am a mom of an adventurous, kind, intelligent 4-year-old girl and a smiley, cuddly, climbing 2-year-old boy. I, like many women, had some challenges during pregnancy and postpartum which led me to become a women’s health therapist. I opened One Strong Woman Therapy, LLC to provide pelvic floor therapy, lactation support, sexual function/dysfunction interventions and bring QC women together to empower one another.
MEET THE TEAM
Kirstin


PHYSICAL THERAPIST
I am a board-certified Physical Therapist licensed in the state of Iowa and Illinois. I was fortunate enough to be part of a family who encouraged discussion about pelvic wellness and found myself drawn to the speciality practice of pelvic floor therapy as a student at Saint Ambrose. Fast forward over a decade, and I could not see myself doing anything different (besides being as cool as Betty White, but I’m still working on that). I was drawn to One Strong Woman Therapy because of the positivity and support that vibrates through the clinic. A warmth exudes from everyone that fosters the healing process. My focus is to provide education to empower all of my patients, and possibly share a few laughs along the way. My husband and I share a lovely, cozy home with two mostly lovely cats. I enjoy crafting, trivia, cooking, gardening, and being a Scorpio in my spare time.

Catie

PHYSICAL THERAPIST
I am a board certified doctor of physical therapy in both Illinois and Iowa. I have been a physical therapist for 4 years specializing in pediatric and neurological populations. I recently have taken courses on pediatric pelvic health to better serve the Quad Cities and surrounding areas. What drew me to One Strong Woman was the incredible message of empowering + supporting women and children to optimize their health throughout their journey - whatever that may be. When I am not working, I love to bake, play board games, and run. I have an energetic and playful rescue puppy that keeps my husband and I very busy.



Laiken
OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST
I am a board-certified occupational therapist licensed in Iowa and also certified in dry needling! I recently received my degree from Drake University and had the wonderful opportunity to complete my Capstone rotation at One Strong Woman Therapy, giving me a unique insight on the incredible dynamic of the clinic and build relationships with my future coworkers and patients. I was drawn to pelvic floor therapy because of how empowering and inspiring it is to work with women across the lifespan, especially those that are current athletes or looking to get back into exercising. When I am not at OSW, I enjoy going on walks with my dogs Daisy and Bruno, trying new restaurants, reading, and hanging out with my family, my boyfriend, and the hometown girls.

Ashley
OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST
I am a board-certified occupational therapist, licensed in Iowa. I have been a practicing therapist for nearly 15 years with a multitude of experiences with people across the lifespan. I started out in pediatrics and am so eager to be working with kids again. I am a wife and mom to two grade-school aged boys, who keep me busy watching their sports events, creating Lego builds, and brushing up on all my Disney trivia. I was inspired to join the One Strong Woman team after my own experiences. My family was on the receiving end of care here at OSW and we felt so welcome! Now as a member of the team, I love the supportive and knowledgeable colleagues, positive environment, and emphasis on person centered care. I am here to help your family navigate through challenges with lactation, infant feeding, and pediatric pelvic health. I firmly believe these are paths we should not be walking alone!



Alana
PHYSICAL THERAPIST
Alana is a recent graduate from St. Ambrose University program here in Davenport, IA. Born and raised in Central Wisconsin, Alana is an avid Packers fan and lover of cheese (although she is a tad lactose intolerant). While she isn't busy getting bullied by her cat, Pancake, she enjoys running marathons, lifting heavy weights, and reading romance novels. If you find yourself limiting your participation in events such as these due to incontinence or pelvic girdle pain, Alana is your girl! Alana believes that every person should feel strong and confident in their body and shouldn't be limited by pelvic floor issues.
