Meet Dr. Megan Rome
Pelvic Floor and Obstetrics Physical Therapist, Owner
Hi, I’m Dr. Megan! I am a native of South Carolina graduating from the College of Charleston but moved to Florida while gaining my Doctorate Degree in Physical Therapy University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. After practicing many years in Florida, we moved back to Charleston where I created my dream career, Rome Physical Therapy.
Why Women’s Health PT?
While in school, my mom was diagnosed with pelvic pain after being passed from doctor to doctor without any tests to explain her symptoms. Turns out, it was scar tissue from her cesarean deliveries. How many women go to physical therapy after childbirth? LESS THAN 5%!
It was that moment in time when I found myself compassionately interested in Pelvic Health within Physical Therapy. After going through many Continuing Education Courses, I realized I too had experienced some pelvic pain and discomfort and realized a giant gap in treatment for women with pelvic floor dysfunctions. I have continued my research and training in Pelvic Health, obstetrics, and breast cancer across the country over the past few years. Currently, I am privileged to make changes for those in need in order to decrease pain, dysfunction and even fear!
My Philosophy?
It is important to understand what is going on but more importantly, WHY did it happen in the first place. I believe in receiving noticeable results within 3-5 visits while identifying self-autonomy for you to help regain control over your own life! I believe functional treatments that you can use in your everyday life rather than lying on your back making me do the work! It’s your body. You need to understand what’s going on and TOGETHER we can fix it!
