Pregnancy and Postpartum care, delivered to your door.
Whether you are preparing for birth or navigating recovery on the other side, your body deserves more than the healthcare system typically offers. I am here to provide personalized, in-home physical therapy designed to support your body, your confidence, and every stage in between.
Your experience deserves to be taken seriously.
Whether you are pregnant and trying to prepare your body for birth, just had your first baby and have no idea what recovery is supposed to feel like, healing from a C-section while life keeps moving around you, or you walked out of your six-week appointment with more questions than answers, you landed in the right place. I built Plaetz Therapy for moms who deserved more support during pregnancy and postpartum than the system gave them.
Physical Therapy focused on you: from pregnancy through postpartum
I offer in-home physical therapy visits in the Eau Claire, Wisconsin area, supporting you from pregnancy through postpartum recovery. No waiting rooms, no travel logistics, no finding childcare. I come to you, get a full picture of where you are in your pregnancy or recovery, and build a treatment plan that fits your body, your timeline, and your real life. Every appointment is built around you, not a generic protocol.
Hi, I’m Jennifer.
I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy with over 10 years of experience and a specialization in pelvic health, pregnancy, and postpartum care. I am also a mom, which means I know firsthand that the changes your body goes through during pregnancy and postpartum are nothing like what the healthcare system prepares you for.
I started Plaetz Therapy because I kept seeing the same gap over and over again, during pregnancy and postpartum. Women navigating discomfort, body changes, and labor preparation with minimal guidance, then being discharged after birth, handed a six-week appointment card, and left to figure out the rest on their own. I knew there was a better way to support women through both preparation and recovery, so I built it.
"After having baby #1 via C-section and experiencing debilitating nerve pain and stomach numbness, I knew I had to be more proactive with baby #2 (who was a C-section as well). I met with Jennifer initially before giving birth to baby #2 to discuss my prior postpartum concerns and explained the proactive care I was looking for this time around. Nine days after baby #2 was born I connected back with Jennifer who provided me with weekly care, education, new exercises to implement, and a couple items to practice outside of our time together. I am so happy to report that my nerve pain has completely subsided and my stomach is no longer numb! 10/10 recommend PT services from Jennifer."
