Women’s Advantage / Men’s Optimal Health Physical Therapy is a specialty pelvic health clinic that has been in the South Bay Beach Cities south of Los Angeles for over 20 years and is growing rapidly. We are ready to add 1-2 full time Pelvic Health Physical Therapist Assistants (licensed PTA) to our team in Torrance asap. Mentorship is available.

Our main clinic, located in Torrance, moved into a new expanded space in 2021 (5200 sq. ft. with 12 private treatment rooms) and we also have a satellite clinic in Long Beach with 10 private treatment rooms that we moved into in 2023.

We treat all genders for pelvic health challenges, pediatric bladder and bowel dysfunctions, as well as some oncology rehab and a little general ortho. We also offer cash Pilates classes to clients during or after their physical therapy plan of care. We are insurance based practice with 45 min sessions one on one with the PT or PTA, and do not utilize aides.

We use pilates reformers, trap table, wunda chair, MOTR and TRX for exercise progressions in our gym space and would love a PTA who has some experience in training with these options, plus is interested in very precise core training (especially for our big population of postpartum folks!)

We were approved and accredited for a 12 month pelvic health residency program in 2020/21, and take 1-2 PT residents per year, starting each November 1st.

We are very focused on education and evidence based medicine, and annually host 16-18 satellite courses for Herman Wallace Pelvic Rehab Institute. Our Director of Physical Therapy, Dr Jenni Gabelsberg, has been on HW faculty for 20 years and teaches the pelvic series and the OB series. All experienced staff have the opportunity to TA these satellite courses and we are open to staff developing subspecialty programs within our company.

Our Core Values are:

• Rise by Lifting Others
• Relentless Curiosity
• Adapt and Thrive
• Conscious Communication
• Cultivate Community
• Embody Self-Care

If these sound like characteristics that are important to you too, and you demonstrate these traits on a daily basis, we would love to meet you!

Required:

• California PTA license (but open to someone applying who is already licensed in another state who is interested in moving to California)
• Level One Pelvic Health Training through Herman Wallace or the APTA pelvic health section
• Strong orthopedic background and manual skills

Recommended:

• 1+ years experience in pelvic health
• Experience/training in Pilates mat and reformer and/or TRX
