Enlighten Physical Therapy: Conscious Care for Pelvic Health

Casie is an amazing Pelvic Floor PT! She made me feel super safe and comfortable. I have endometriosis and have painful periods and painful intercourse. She helped me by helping my muscles relax as well as give me techniques to take home and use on myself as needed. My pain has decreased tremendously! She also offered helpful advice on eating habits and belly massage as I prepare for my bleeding phase. I would recommend her to anyone experiencing pain or other issues with their pelvic floor. Incredible person and practitioner! Thank you so much!

I went to see Dr. Lisa Tan to start therapy. I was nervous and didn't know what to expect. She is truly an expert in what she does and very knowledgeable. She takes her time to talk and explain everything. she made made me feel at ease and so comfortable. The exercises are great and I look forward to every session.

Casie has been vital in my Endometriosis journey and healing. She listens, understands, and has a calming demeanor with an intuitive touch. The work that she does is sacred work. It's not easy to trust someone with pelvic floor PT... Casie is the only pelvic floor PT that I felt completely comfortable and trusted to do the work that we needed to do. I would recommend her to anyone seeking relief from any type of pelvic floor issues and/or pain. I can't say enough about her, she is a not only a master physical therapist, she is truly a healer.

After having the pleasure of working in the same field as Casie for some years now, I can attest to her absolute wonderfulness as a pelvic floor physical therapist and yogi. She is warm, thoughtful, and smart as a whip. I have seen her go the extra mile for her clients time and again. I routinely speak with Casie in a professional setting and she is always amazing me with her insightful and careful advice regarding the treatment of complex pelvic floor dysfunction such as, vulvodynia, chronic pelvic pain, erectile dysfunction, tissue disorders caused by hormonal imbalance, incontinence, and pregnancy/post partum issues. She is deft with combining western and eastern techniques in order to provide the ideal healing experience for each individual. She is also my yoga idol and she is the my go to referral for anyone looking for a pelvic floor physical therapist in the greater Los Angeles area. Casie is just the best!

Hello!
I wanted to take the time to write a review for Casie because she has actually changed my life and the way I feel about my body. For years I could not function on the first day of my period. I would be in so much pain and stay in bed all day. It felt really shameful. I felt bad missing school, work, friend dates, ect. I ended up being diagnosed with endometriosis and my doctor prescribed Casie to me. It has only been 7 months and I can function like a normal human being on my period now. I can walk around, cook, clean, work, learn, do anything I wish to do.
Aside from that, I have a new connection to womb space. I have gained knowledge on how to intuitively take care of my body and really listen in order to know where my pain is coming from. I have an awareness now that I longed for in the past. I feel at home in my body again and that's thanks to Casie. She makes you feel safe, comfortable, and heard which is incredibly important when it comes to your health and wellbeing. To sum it up, I'm extremely grateful and would recommend her to anyone in search for more information regarding pelvic health.

Dr. Casie Danenhauer is a very driven, motivated, and intelligent Doctor of Physical Therapy. She shows compassion and empathy towards her patients, creating a healing space when you walk in for treatment. She is multi-talented specializing in pelvic health, manual therapy, cupping, as well as sport orthopedics. I am thankful to have crossed paths with Dr. Danenhauer working alongside with her as a colleague, mentor, and friend. She, too, has been very helpful treating me for a recent injury! Without a doubt, I highly recommend her! - Sofia Costa, PT, DPT, CES

Earlier this year, I learned I had been misdiagnosed for many years; I suffered from multiple symptoms surrounding my monthly cycle. I was distraught after learning that I had endometriosis and fibroids on my uterus which was causing severe period symptoms. After being told my only options are to go back on birth control pills, or undergo laproscopic surgery, I felt hopeless. I came to Casie with this hopelessness surrounding my many issues surrounding my hip and pelvic pain, and more urgently, intense cramping and severe leg pain. Casie listened and really held the space for me to be able to share everything that I had been struggling with, as medication and invasive surgery were not options for me.

Not only have her treatments helped me immensely, she also collaborates with other treatment specialists (gynocologiest, neurologist, acupuncturist) in order to identify root causes and offer long-term solutions to my specific conditions. With their collaboration, I have been able to make some sense of decades of syptoms that have been previously been treated in silos.

Casie’s energy and motivation has inspired me to do more self-care, including yoga and asanas that are specific to my path to recovery. She is not only a professional, but working with her is as easy as being with a dear friend. Kind, compassionate, gentle and caring. These are characteristics we can appreciate in in medical care. I highly recommend Casie and will continue to see her for my ongoing road to recovery and reconnection to my root.
