ABOUT US

Our focus is pleasure first, but we go far beyond that.

At Medusa Pelvic Health and Wellbeing, we use pelvic health as our lens, but pleasure, sensation, and fully living are the real focus. We help you reconnect with your body, rediscover intimacy and desire, and navigate life in a way that actually feels juicy and human. Sensory overwhelm, role strain, postpartum or life transitions? We untangle it. Boundaries, energy, and connection? We make room for them. Our approach is trauma-informed, whole-person, and unapologetically real — blending pelvic health expertise, sensory support, and life redesign so your body, mind, and pleasure all get to show up.

Owner, Occupational Therapist, Pelvic Health Specialist, Trauma-Informed Pelvic Health Practitioner

I’m Nadya, a homegrown New Mexican who has adventured across borders and seas, but Albuquerque is my forever home. As a mama who’s experienced pregnancy loss, preterm birth, high-risk pregnancy, and the messy, beautiful journey of motherhood, I know the strength it takes to heal, and how isolating it can feel at times.

I’ve been on the other side of the treatment table as a pelvic health therapy patient. My own healing process and the care I received lit a fire in me to specialize in women’s pelvic health, perinatal and postpartum care, and trauma-informed pelvic health. I wanted to be able to offer the same care and healing I experienced. I also sought out additional training in prenatal mental health care and sexual health counseling because I believe every part of us - mind, body, and spirit - deserves to heal together, through every phase of life.

Finding pleasure and reclaiming your juicy, fully alive life has always been at the core of my practice. From helping women reconnect with desire and intimacy to untangling sensory overwhelm and life chaos, my work is about creating space for your body, mind, and pleasure to show up fully. I’ve always wanted to help women feel curious, embodied, and empowered in their lives—and now, every session, every conversation, every strategy is designed to support that.

I care deeply about supporting people through the complexities of sacred ending, and sacred reclaiming, especially in the areas of pregnancy loss/termination, and pre- and post-hysterectomy recovery. It’s not just about physical healing - it’s emotional, mental, and everything in between. I’m here for the long haul, to help you navigate it, not rush through it.

BEHIND THE NAME

Medusa, the Spanish word for jellyfish, symbolizes fluidity, resilience, and healing, qualities we embody in our approach to pelvic health and recovery. Just like jellyfish move gracefully through the water, we help people navigate the challenges of maternal health, pelvic recovery, and life transitions with strength and support. We focus on the delicate balance of vulnerability and empowerment, guiding individuals through physical, emotional, and mental shifts, and helping them reconnect with their bodies, find that healing, and embrace their full vitality.

Our lens is pelvic health, but we go far beyond that.
