Amanda L Townsend

I’m a board-certified clinical specialist in Women’s Health Physical Therapy with over 15 years of experience in outpatient orthopedics & pelvic health. My clinical work integrates pelvic floor & orthopedic physical therapy across the lifespan, with particular focus on complex, persistent symptoms that haven’t resolved through conventional care.

My background spans sports medicine, orthopedic rehabilitation, perinatal, & pelvic health. I completed an orthopedic physical therapy residency & have spent much of my career working in outpatient settings, private practice, & leadership roles, including clinic director, regional director, residency mentor, & business owner.

Over the last decade, my clinical focus has increasingly centered on individuals navigating pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, pregnancy & postpartum recovery, surgical recovery, & midlife transitions. I work with individuals whose symptoms are often labeled as “normal,” unclear, or difficult to resolve & who are seeking care that looks beyond isolated body parts or protocols. I founded Unbound Pelvis to offer pelvic floor care that reflects both clinical excellence & humanity. Care that is thoughtful, integrative, & designed to support meaningful, durable change. My approach is paced, relational, & grounded in respect for each person’s lived experience & current season of life.

In addition to clinical practice, I have experience in mentorship & education. I’ve served as teaching assistant in an orthopedic residency program, mentored clinicians across multiple clinics, & taught coursework in anatomy, lumbar spine evaluation, pelvic girdle function, & movement systems. I also support other women in healthcare through consulting & mentorship as they build sustainable, values-aligned practices.
