About Me 

My name is Heather Akins, PT, DPT. I am the founder of Rooted In Wellness Pelvic Health and have been a physical therapist for 14 years, specializing in orthopedics and pelvic health. I am a proud wife and mom of two active girls,  served 12 years in the Army National Guard and am passionate about fitness. My diverse background and dedication to wellness drives my commitment to helping others achieve optimal health.

I believe wellness is a journey, not a destination. Throughout my life, wellness has taken on different forms, but a commitment to movement has always been a constant. I thought being fit meant I was prepared for every challenge, but my birth experience was far from what I had envisioned. Postpartum, I found myself navigating pain, anxiety, and bowel and bladder incontinence—all while adjusting to life as a new mom. It was overwhelming, and my personal wellness took a back seat. While I don't get it right every day (we're all perfectly imperfect), this journey ultimately led me to my passion and specialty in pelvic health.

 My mission is to provide my clients with the healing and supportive environment they need to be their perfectly-imperfect selves.  I work to empower you to feel confident and strong in the body you are in and guide you along your own journey to wellness. 

As a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist, I specialize in supporting my clients at every stage of life. Whether you're navigating the physical demands of pregnancy, postpartum, or managing the transitions of menopause, I am here to help you achieve your personal and fitness goals and enhance your well-being.

Let's work together to ensure you feel strong, confident, and empowered on your journey.
