My Story

Hi, I’m Dr. Arienne Wrigley Ashby!

As a mom, physical therapist, athletic trainer, and lifelong learner based in sunny Miami, Florida,  my journey into healthcare began with a Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training and Sports Medicine from the University of Pittsburgh, followed by earning my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Florida International University.

 Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of clients—from young athletes to professionals and Olympians—addressing orthopedic conditions and athletic performance. More recently, I’ve found my true passion in pelvic health, focusing on prenatal and postpartum care, sexual function, and fitness.

After having my first daughter in 2016, I experienced first-hand, the gaps in women’s healthcare—especially when it comes to pelvic health. Despite being a physical therapist and fitness enthusiast, I faced challenges in restoring my own core and pelvic floor health. That personal journey sparked a deeper purpose: helping others heal and reconnect with their bodies in ways that improve both function and fitness.

 

Today, I’m dedicated to empowering my clients—women and men alike—to better understand their bodies, optimize their movement, and regain confidence in their daily lives. Whether it’s bridging the gap between basic pelvic floor recovery and full return to fitness, or addressing chronic pain, my mission is to provide care that makes a tangible difference.Whether you’re a new mom struggling with core activation or leaking when you laugh or sneeze, a professional battling back pain, or an athlete recovering from injury, I’m here to help. Let’s move beyond “just living with it” and work toward living your fullest, most vibrant life
