Lauralee Wallace founded Well Pelvic Health in December of 2022 at The Well, an integrative wellness center. She began her career in 1990 as a physical therapy aide, and graduated from the University of California in San Francisco with her Masters in Physical Therapy in 1994. She gained valuable experience at UC Davis Medical Center and Kaiser in Sacramento, working with diverse age groups and complex injuries and ilnesses.
In 1996, seeking a slower and more centered lifestyle, Lauralee relocated to Siskiyou County. For over 25 years, she worked at the local hospital, treating in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Her experience in treating a wide range of diagnoses, including orthopedic, neurological, and general medical conditions, proved invaluable. During her career, she saw many changes in the healthcare system that prioritized profits over patient care, and that led her to leave the hospital in 2021.
During her hiatus from healthcare, she pursued further education in pelvic floor therapy, enhancing her expertise and providing her with unique insights into root causes of dysfunction. This specialization has elevated her practice, allowing her to treat the body holistically. She has a true passion for this population as she is able to bring lasting change and life changing outcomes for her patients. This is a truely underserved community and she happy to be to be able to offer this service to her community.
