Meet Dr. Brande Moffatt, PT, DPT, PRPC

Post-graduate education includes extensive training in the area of female/male pelvic floor, incontinence, gynecological issues as they relate to the musculoskeletal and myofascial system, sacroiliac joint mobilization/stabilization, Pilates training on the Reformer, various manual therapy techniques, and exercise prescription for the pregnant, postpartum, menopausal, osteoporotic patient and post oncological patient. Brande graduated in 1994 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science/Physical Education, and in 1999 with a Master’s Degree in Physical Therapy. She started her physical therapy career working in orthopedic and neurological rehabilitation, but quickly discovered her interest in the area of Women’s Health. She actively pursued continuing education and has worked over the last 25 years to develop her specialty for the treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. In 2022, she enrolled in a post-professional physical therapy doctorate program in musculoskeletal management, which she completed in 2024.

Brande has also completed training in the utilization of sEMG intra-vaginal and intra-rectal biofeedback for the purpose of neuromuscular re-education for dysfunctional voiding and defecation disorders, as well as sexual pain disorders. She is an active member of the Academy of Pelvic Health section of the American Physical Therapy Association, the International Pelvic Pain Society, the International Children’s Continence Society, the National Vulvodynia Association, and the Interstitial Cystitis Network. She is the founder and owner of Women’s Health Physical Therapy, in Redding, CA. After qualifying to sit for the inaugural exam in 2014, Brande was amongst the first group of practitioners to receive the designation of PRPC( Pelvic Rehabilitation Practitioner Certification), which distinguishes professionals with expertise in treating men, women and children with pelvic dysfunction throughout the lifecycle, inclusive of bladder, bowel, gynecological, orthopedic, sexual and obstetric topics. In 2024, she completed beta testing for renewal of her 10 year specialty credential.

Brande has been in private practice for greater than 18 years, and she has an estimated 50,000 hours of working in a pelvic health related specialty. She is passionate about teaching, and thus plans to spend more time mentoring and teaching in years to come.
