This month we’re welcoming Jennifer Jean-Louis and Gabriel Sarta who are presenting ‘Our Journey in Pelvic Health Rehabilitation’

Drawing from their experiences in pelvic floor rehab, they’ll share the limitations they’ve discovered as well as opportunities for improvement. Discover the tools and strategies that have worked well on their clienteles. 

Hi/Bonjour! I'm Jennifer, I'm a registered pelvic floor physiotherapist from Montreal currently based in Vancouver. I'm invested in improving people's daily lives by connecting with them in a positive and safe environment, so we can work together and overcome any challenge their pelvic floor may be presenting, no matter their gender nor age. I knew early on in my career that I would be focusing on pelvic health.  This profession is so unique, and I love how we can have a direct positive impact on someone’s journey. It also opens the platform for discussions we perhaps don’t have enough.  I value this role because helping others reach their goals and furthering those discussions are some of my core values.  I lead my practice with passion, care, and kindness. I do believe in the combination of education, manual therapy, and home exercise programs in order to achieve set goals. For your convenience I can hold the sessions in French and more limited in Spanish.  

I took extended continuing education courses to treat a diversity of clients, and now run my own practice called AcuElements Wellness Clinic in downtown Vancouver. I offer treatments for:  Incontinence (urine and stool), Prenatal and Postpartum, Urinary Urgency/Frequency, Vulvar, Vaginal, Clitoral, Perineal Pain (at rest, with touch or with intercourse), Vaginismus, Pelvic Organ Prolapse, Endometriosis, Coccydynia (Coccyx Pain), C-section prep & Recovery, Gender Affirming Pre-Post Surgery Care, Anorectal Pain (at rest or with stools), Interstitial Cystitis/Painful Bladder Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Menopause, Male Pelvic Pain, Vaginal Stenosis, Pre and Post- Surgical Consult and Conditioning after Pelvic Radiation Therapy or Obstetric, Gynaecological or Colorectal Surgery.

Gabriel’s journey in healthcare began as a Physiotherapist in France, igniting a passion for holistic healing. Since relocating to Canada in 2018, he has dedicated himself to active rehabilitation, with a particular emphasis on his specialization in male pelvic floor therapy.

With a master’s degree in rehabilitation and reeducation from the esteemed University of Brussels (ULB) in Belgium, Gabriel has honed his skills across diverse healthcare settings, cultivating a comprehensive approach to physiotherapy. Bilingual in English and French, he seamlessly bridges linguistic gaps to provide top-tier care.

Gabriel’s professional ethos is marked by dynamism, altruism, and meticulous organization, reflecting his unwavering commitment to the field of healthcare. His values resonate through his practice:

Client-Centric Innovation: Gabriel forges deep connections with his clients, crafting innovative treatment modalities tailored to their unique needs.

Root Cause Resolution: With a keen investigative eye, Gabriel delves deep to unearth the underlying causes of injury, disrupting the cycle of pain for sustained recovery.

Commitment to Lifelong Learning: Gabriel transcends conventional boundaries, continually augmenting his clinical acumen and embracing the ethos of perpetual learning.

Passion for Knowledge Sharing: Gabriel delights in disseminating insights and drawing inspiration from collaborative exchange, enriching both his practice and the wider healthcare community.

Gabriel’s expertise encompasses a range of techniques and treatments, with a notable specialization in male pelvic floor rehabilitation. His nuanced understanding of this often overlooked aspect of physiotherapy ensures tailored interventions for his male clientele, addressing a spectrum of pelvic floor dysfunctions with empathy and efficacy.

In recent years, Gabriel has also specialized in supporting clients with acquired brain injuries (ABI), including conditions such as whiplash, concussions, and developmental delays, often intertwined with mental health challenges. Furthermore, he spearheads training initiatives, equipping teams to navigate the complexities of rehabilitation with compassion and proficiency.

Beyond his professional endeavours, Gabriel finds solace in nature’s embrace. An avid outdoor enthusiast, he delights in hiking, camping, snowboarding, and fishing, seamlessly harmonizing his passion for adventure with his dedication to holistic well-being.
