Meet Kelly
Women’s Health Occupational Therapist
Kelly Keeny, OTR/L
Following the birth of my third baby, I was having many of the usual “mommy” symptoms that so many women experience – leaking, abdominal separation and weakness, and mild pelvic pain. I had heard about pelvic floor therapy, and began working with a pelvic PT in Denver, CO who had her own practice. This was the beginning of my passion for women’s health! It was as if a light bulb went off in my mind – for the four years since I had had my first baby, I had spent so many hours a day clenching my pelvic floor, taking shallow breaths, overdoing it when I did exercise, and always feeling insecure and like having kids had “wrecked” my body.

Working with my PT changed all that – I finally felt like I was able to connect my core and pelvic floor, working the smaller groups of muscles, and not just focusing on “ab exercises.” Within a few months my leaking resolved and I had real tools to cope with my pelvic pain and GI issues. I felt more confident and comfortable in my new “mommy” body, and valued it so much more than I had before.
This was the turning point – if there were other therapists who were able to help moms and women feel strong and confident in their bodies, then I had to be one of them too. I knew that my days working as a hospital OT were over – I took the plunge into women’s health, and haven’t looked back since!
I became certified through the Herman & Wallace Pelvic Rehab Institute, and started Form and Function Pelvic Health in 2019, initially providing in-home therapy in Lancaster County and the surrounding region. Since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2020 (my husband and I had lived here for many years and are both Pitt grads) it’s been a privilege to connect with the Pittsburgh birth community. I am passionate about collaborating with other women’s health PTs and OTs, as well as other health professionals who serve women.
But most of all I love having the privilege to walk with so many young and older women, new moms and mothers of teenagers, as they discover those “aha” moments – whether it’s preparing for a V-BAC, finally feeling like they can go on a run without leaking, recovering from a hard c-section, or working through a difficult pelvic pain condition, like vaginismus or endometriosis.
Finding and affirming the dignity of every woman, and helping each woman to find the courage to know what wholeness can be through her femininity, has been such a gift on this journey.
My husband and I live in Pittsburgh with our five children. Our house is always loud and a little messy, and we all love to read and are fans of homemade bread, classical music and spending time with our kiddos and friends.
Meet Anna
Women’s Health Physical Therapist
Anna Holloway, PT, DPT
Anna began working as a Women’s Health Physical Therapist after seeing first-hand the lack of awareness of her friends and family regarding the ability for women’s bodies to heal and restore function. After hearing countless times over:

“If only I had known all of this back when I had kids!”
“I thought it was just what normally happens after you have a baby, you just pee yourself a little, right?”
And “My doctor told me to just relax and try having some wine… isn’t it normal to have pain with sex?”
She knew she wanted to step in and do something BIG to help women and mothers thrive:
What does that mean for you? Could it mean:
- Jumping on the trampoline or running with your kids without worrying about leaking?
- Feeling confident about having sex after your wedding, even if right now you’re nervous? Or finding relief even if you’ve been having pain with intimacy for years?
- Being able to sit through an entire meeting at work, without having to excuse yourself to run to the bathroom – even though you KNOW that you just peed before the meeting!
- Finally finding some relief for your pelvic pain, and feeling confident in your body even if you have been diagnosed with a condition like endometriosis or vaginismus/vulvodynia
A little about Anna’s approach to Women’s Health PT…
Anna combines manual therapy with exercise to provide a hands-on approach to treating her patients and getting them back to doing what they love most, without fear of pain, leaking or weakness! She has a passion for helping other women feel heard, empowered, and confident and she looks forward to working with you!
In Anna’s freetime, she loves to stay active herself through yoga, weight lifting, and walking her dog. She also has fun indulging in her foodie personality with her fiance and trying new restaurants with friends around the Burgh!
Professionally, Anna earned her Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Physiology at Marquette University and her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. Anna has received advanced training in from the American Physical Therapy Association. She has gained certifications in pregnancy/postpartum rehabilitation, pelvic pain, and returning to athletics postpartum.
