Root to Bloom Provides Physical Therapy in New Lynnfield Location
LYNNFIELD, MA - Root to Bloom, a pelvic floor physical therapy clinic and yoga studio, has moved from Wakefield to a new office space at 7 Kimball Lane in Lynnfield with expanded space and availability to better serve adult and pediatric clients.
Clinic owner Katie Moulison, PT, DPT, is a pelvic floor physical therapist specializing in the perinatal, perimenopausal, and menopausal periods and pediatric pelvic floor dysfunction. She also teaches prenatal, postpartum, and children’s yoga classes.
“At Root to Bloom, we take a whole-body approach to bladder health, bowel health, sexual health and function, pregnancy and postpartum healing, and pelvic pain,” Moulison said. “We look at patients as a whole person, and address the root cause of the condition from head to toe.”

Unlike many hospital networks that have high patient volumes and short appointment times, all appointments at Root to Bloom are one hour long and are one-on-one in a private treatment space without the use of any rehab aides.
“Just because a pelvic floor condition is common, like urinary incontinence or tailbone pain, doesn’t mean that it’s untreatable,” said Moulison. “Many people’s concerns are dismissed and many people experience symptoms suddenly, especially during the pregnancy and postpartum period. This can make it difficult for them to access physical therapy appointments immediately.”
As a result, Root to Bloom reserves appointments every week for new patients, versus a typical 2-3 month waitlist patients often encounter at major facilities.
In pediatric pelvic floor therapy, treatment is founded on functional play, which addresses all of the underlying factors that may be impacting a child’s pelvic floor symptoms, including mobility, strength, posture, tension, breathing, and reflexes. Treatment sessions also include education about how the body works, diet and hydration, breathing strategies, toileting mechanics, and helping children implement new strategies at home.
“I look beyond the pelvis and gastrointestinal tract, because the pelvic floor influences the whole body, and vice-versa,” said Moulison. “We believe in early intervention before symptoms are having a severe impact on a child’s life.”
Root to Bloom aims to evaluate patients as soon as possible and provide consistent follow-up appointments to ensure continuity of care. Pediatric sessions are also an hour long and one-on-one without the use of any aides.
