Dr. Tara Rudolphi graduated with a Doctoral Degree in physical therapy from the University of Iowa in 2009. She started her practice in orthopedics but soon discovered her passion for helping children. Tara has extensive experience in developmental delay/early intervention, Neurodevelopmental treatments (NDT), Traumatic Brain injuries, and bowel/bladder incontinence treatments. Prior to starting 2Empower Physical Therapy, Tara developed and grew the pediatric pelvic floor program at Genesis Pediatric Therapy Center in Coralville, IA to be a leading provider of voiding dysfunction treatments with families traveling from all over the state of Iowa. Tara published “The Effect of a Combined Pelvic Floor Muscle Training and Gross Motor Strengthening Program on Urinary Incontinence in school-aged Children with Typical Development: A Descriptive Case Series.” Tara has taught multiple courses and has presented her work at the National APTA CSM in Washington D.C. and was recognized with the Elaine Meadows Research Scholar Award presented at the Section on Women’s Health -APTA Awards Gala Program. Tara has since expanded her skillset and practice to help women through pregnancy and post-partum and beyond to overcome pain, incontinence, and regain abdominal and pelvic floor integrity. Her mission is to spread the word that our children are not defined by a diagnosis and no person needs to suffer from pain, constipation, and incontinence. Tara provides education and a multi-system physical therapy approach customized to your needs so you or your child can live their best life.
