“After struggling for years and seeing several other in person PTs without much improvement I was hesitant to try another, but Dr. Howell’s approach is the key. She helped me change my mindset around vaginismus while guiding me through the necessary changes to see improvement. After 8 sessions I was successful with pain free penetration and haven’t looked back! I’m forever thankful I took a chance and trusted her process and guidance. ”

About Dr. Janelle Howell

My name is Dr. Janelle Howell, and I am a Women’s Certified Specialist in pelvic floor physical therapy. I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of the Pacific. I have worked nearly 10 years as a clinician, with 5 years specializing as a pelvic floor therapist. I am the founder of Vagina Rehab Doctor, which focuses on telehealth treatment for sexual pain and vaginismus. This approach allows you to receive effective, trauma-informed, and time-efficient care without leaving the privacy of your home. On average, treating vaginismus and sexual pain requires 8-10 weekly telehealth sessions, with an 85% success rate. Our initial 30-minute consultation costs $101. During this session, we discuss your challenges, fears, and goals, review our program, and determine if we are a great fit to work together. Our full programs for pelvic floor dysfunction, vaginismus, and sexual pain start at $2000. We operate as a cash-pay company. If, at the end of your consultation, we agree it’s a good fit and you’re ready to proceed, we will get you signed up and scheduled. I look forward to meeting you and exploring if we should work together!
