Dr. Erin Johnas is a licensed physical therapist with a Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Quinnipiac University. She has specialized in pelvic health since the beginning of her career and has completed advanced training in pelvic pain conditions, pregnancy and postpartum rehabilitation, dry needling, return-to-running programs, strength training, and the biomechanics of birth, including coursework through the Institute for Birth Healing. She treats women across the lifespan for pregnancy, postpartum recovery, pelvic pain, bowel and bladder dysfunction, and return to exercise, combining hands-on treatment, movement assessment, dry needling, and education to help patients build confidence and resilience in their bodies.
People are often treated as a collection of separate symptoms rather than a whole person. I want to help patients understand how the body’s systems work together, from the connection between the feet, hips, and pelvic floor to the impact of sleep, stress, and emotions on physical symptoms.
Compassion, curiosity, and connection guide every session. Dr. Erin values lifelong learning and honoring the body’s innate capacity to heal, and she treats the whole person rather than a single symptom, whether that means pelvic pain, a pregnancy-related ache, or a return to running after delivery. Building a customized plan, interviewing patients thoroughly, and following through personally are central to how she works.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Erin can usually be found outside with her family: skiing, hiking, gardening, caring for their chickens, and spending time on their small homestead, often with her daughter in tow. She enjoys cooking from scratch and embracing the simple seasonal rhythms of life, an outlook she brings into the whole-person approach she takes with every patient.
