“Pauline was very welcoming and took the time to understand and assess my condition. As an avid runner, I came with an issue with the knee and she helped identify areas that may have contributed to the pain. Always feel better after every session. Highly recommend.”

About:
My name is Marie Pauline (Pauline) Mendoza. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy specializing in pelvic health rehabilitation, birth preparation, and postpartum care.
I interweave my solid orthopedic background with my specialization in pelvic physical therapy to address various conditions of the pelvic floor. I pride myself on providing a positive therapeutic experience by educating and helping patients to feel comfortable with my treatment techniques. Pregnancy is a beautiful, life-changing event that requires education and preparation. And I have made it my mission to help all moms receive individualized care for their pelvic health no matter what stage they are in their motherhood journey. I also recognize that pelvic floor conditions are often undiagnosed, relatively difficult to treat, and can tremendously impact a person’s life. I am dedicated and determined to bring these conditions to light and offer a holistic approach to addressing them.
I obtained my Doctorate Degree from Arcadia University and received advanced pelvic health training (Pelvic Health Level 1-3) through the Academy of Pelvic Health Physical Therapy. Currently in my final steps to receive my Certificate of Achievement in Pelvic Health (CAPP - Pelvic) from APTA Pelvic Health and working on my PRPC (Pelvic Rehabilitation Practitioner Certification) title from Herman & Wallace. I have also attended an intensive 12-week Pregnancy and Postpartum MasterCourse from New England Pelvic Doc Collective.

Dr. Mendoza is very accommodating. I have extreme muscular tension & spasms whenever I exercise my upper body and when doing PT I have to take frequent breaks. Dr. Mendoza has given me the space to listen to my body and I'm grateful for her not pushing the healing process but letting it happen in its own time.
March 30, 2021Stephen N.Verified patient
Pauline makes sure she understands my pain in a holistic way. After discussing possible treatments and solutions, she made sure that I had all the info I need to work toward recovery on my own before our next session. She is encouraging and focused. I feel like the things we worked on have improved this week, and I look forward to working with her more to increase strength and stability.
March 9, 2021Jake M.Verified patient
It was a relief to find Pauline because my back pain had reached a point where my day-to-day activities were greatly diminished -including sleep. She gave direction and has helped bring me back and patience to explain in lay terms she is healing me in a stress-free way that I could not have imagined.
March 2, 2021Richard J.Verified patient
Awesome experience, will definitely go back .
February 26, 2021Paula H.Verified patient
Pauline is not only competent and knowledgeable, but she is also supportive and pleasant. My visit with her was thorough and effective in helping to expand my range of arm motion and lessen the discomfort. She is also very good with time management, and she's never kept me waiting. I would highly recommend Pauline!
February 23, 2021Toni C.Verified patient
Pauline is an exceptional physical therapist. She identifies your ailment both through discussion and physical manipulation. She then details what she would like to accomplish with a patient taking in mind the patient's limits. If one is looking for a physical therapist with knowledge and compassion, pick Pauline.

Professional and sweet Doctor
February 11, 2021Julia K.Verified patient
Pauline was very professional and helpful. She helped me with back pain, correcting my form on exercises and stretches. She gave me plenty of useful tips and things to do on my own as well. We even worked on my posture for a while cause I asked for it. Would highly recommend Pauline to anyone who needed a PT. She is just amazing.
February 9, 2021Nancy M.Verified patient
Had my first ever physical therapy session with Pauline and it could not have gone any better. The lady at the front desk was very courteous, professional, and efficient. The same can be said for Pauline, who was very helpful towards my recovery. She also taught me some moves that I should do at home. Very helpful.
February 3, 2021Andrew F.Verified patient
Pauline made my first experience in PT such that I would return if another problem were to present itself. Very knowledgeable and friendly to work with. The foot wrap was fantastic. She is also very warm and friendly. Very thoughtful in her treatment practices!!! Do recommend!!
January 25, 2021Zooey M.Verified patient
Pauline is extremely knowledgeable about physical therapy and the human body. She knows immediately what my concern areas are and offered many recommendations for them. She's extremely detail-oriented and upon our first session, designed a tailored home exercise plan for me to work on my problem areas. Our 45-minute sessions have been passing by in a breeze.
January 18, 2021Anna C.Verified patient
Pauline is excellent. Takes time. Informs about the exercises and how they work on the body. Activates the muscle properly. Really different approach to PT - but seems to be very effective. Great space to work in. Clean and neat.

This is the second time I've gotten therapy here. I like one-on-one, smallness, and comfort. Pauline is great at making you work and making it fun.

Pauline is not pushy and uses a good balance of established and non-traditional techniques. She is also instrumental in helping me achieve a full range of motion sooner than expected after my ACL surgery. Would recommend!

This was my first time trying acupuncture. I would def go back again. The consultation was thorough and informative and the treatment was on point. I have chronic pain. This is def a treatment option

Pauline is just magic. I initially went to deal with a hip flexor issue that meant I couldn’t walk more than a few blocks. After 3 months of pain and numerous other therapists, I came to SH. After a couple of sessions, Pauline solved my problem! She worked on the abdominal fascia, not just my hip flexor. I am so happy.

Felt well cared for by Sharon and the whole SH team. I came in initially for severe TMJ pain after a few months of an acute bout of clenching. Sharon first reviewed with me before executing the treatment with my therapist David. I was happy with the results and care.

Sharon is a good listener and an effective and caring acupuncturist. The room where I received the treatment was comfortably warm and clean. The acupuncture session went smoothly (no pain) and was followed by a very good massage, which complemented the treatment nicely.
More than 1 year agoCC
Very thoughtful and attentive. Sharon is astute in identifying the sources of pain and patient in providing holistic treatment and relief. I would highly recommend Sharon to everyone that I know.

Pauline was awesome. She was very knowledgeable and treated me with care. This was my first time doing PT so I didn't know what to expect, but I certainly wasn't expecting a massage. She took her time with me and gave me exercises to perform at home as well.
