Hi! My name is Dr. Rachel Coombs, PT, DPT, I recently graduated from Nazareth University’s Doctor of Physical Therapy program. I’m venturing back to Cortland after 6 years of Physical Therapyschool and excited to treat and work in the community that helped raise me. While eager to provide traditional physical therapy, I am especially passionate about bringing pelvic floor PT to Central NY. Pelvic floor physical therapy allows individuals to get back to their daily lives with any activity in a pain-free way. This includes resolving painful intercourse, leakage, pre and postpartum symptoms, constipation, or feelings of worry.Together, we can help you get back to enjoying the things you love to do without the use of pads, planning your day around the bathroom, or the feeling of fullness. I am excited to soon bring yoga classes for everyone to the area with a focus on pre andpostpartum care. I am thrilled to be back in this community andlooking forward to helping my patients!

This mindset of the “whole person” is a primary focus when working with her physical therapy clients. One of Kelly’s passions is building a connection with people and encouraging them on their journey of wellness. Kelly has a heart to encourage and uses her gifts to walk with patients through the transitions of rehab towards meeting an individual’s goals. Whether a runner wanting to get back to the trails or someone’s goal of getting up from the floor, Kelly loves to see patients do what they previously thought impossible. Kelly also uses these skills for helping clinical students on their own journey and appreciates the opportunities to help others grow.
Kelly enjoys many activities on her own wellness journey. Her favorite things involve spending time with her community of family, friends and faith. Kelly is an aspiring 46er of the Adirondack Mountains and she loves to be out in nature. Besides running, skiing and a new addition of cycling, she enjoys moving in different ways and is open to new adventures. Kelly loves music and when practicing in the Cortland office, she enjoys the privilege of being the clinic’s DJ of music and has been frequently called the “singing PT”.
