About MamaBPT

Meet Dr. Joy Beggs, PT, DPT, PCES, FCR

As the founder of MamaBPT and mother of two girls, I have increasingly become passionate towards helping women through physical therapy. I started my career working with the general public in orthopedics and sports recovery. However, soon after I gave birth to my first daughter, I became interested in pelvic health physical therapy. Through my own recovery and specialized training, I learned to help other women achieve their pelvic health and overall physical goals.
