Meet Our Orthopedic and Pelvic Floor Physical Therapists | Renew Health, East Longmeadow, MA
Renew Health was founded by twin sisters Dr. Alyssa and Dr. Brianna Almeida, two DPTs who left hospital-based physical therapy to build the kind of care they wished existed: longer one-on-one visits, a whole-body approach, and treatment plans built on what you need, not what insurance allows. Six years later, we’re proud to be Western Mass’s dedicated pelvic and orthopedic PT practice.
Dr. Alyssa Almeida, PT, DPT, PCES
Alyssa is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, co-owner of Renew Health LLC, and a leading expert in orthopedic and pelvic health integration. As a lifter herself, Alyssa specializes in helping strength athletes (CrossFitters, powerlifters, Olympic lifters), postpartum and perimenopausal women, and individuals with hypermobility spectrum disorders navigate complex pain and pelvic floor challenges without giving up the activities they love.
Known for her warm, evidence-based approach, Alyssa bridges the gap between rehab and performance—helping clients move confidently, lift heavy, and reclaim their strength at every stage of life.
Dr. Brianna Almeida, PT, DPT, PCES
Bree is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and co-owner of Renew Health. She’s passionate about helping active individuals reconnect with their bodies, overcome pain, and move with confidence through every stage of life — from postpartum recovery to perimenopause and beyond.
Her clinical approach blends advanced orthopedic assessment, pelvic floor therapy, and movement retraining to uncover the root cause behind each client’s symptoms — not just treat the surface. In addition to her expertise in women’s pelvic health, Brianna also has a strong interest in treating the male pelvic health population, including men experiencing pelvic pain, erectile dysfunction and urinary symptoms.
Dr. Jackie Oates, PT, DPT, FAAOMPT
Jackie is a fellowship-trained Doctor of Physical Therapy specializing in advanced orthopedic manual therapy and pelvic health. Her approach integrates hands-on techniques, strength-based programming, dry needling and nervous system regulation to help patients move better and feel stronger.
She’s passionate about empowering clients to understand their movement patterns and build long-term strength and confidence. Whether she’s helping someone resolve back and hip pain or return to sport postpartum, Jackie’s care is rooted in connection, curiosity, and clinical excellence.
Leaders in Pelvic Health
At Renew Health, we don’t just treat pelvic health; we help shape where it’s going. Our owners teach, mentor and advocate so that more people in our community, and beyond, get the care they deserve.
Educating the next generation. We teach the pelvic health and healthcare business lectures in the DPT program at American International College, where we both earned our doctorates. Teaching keeps us current on the latest research, and that comes straight back to your care.
Mentoring pelvic health providers nationwide. Through our mentorship program, we train pelvic floor physical therapists across the country to raise the standard of care, so more patients get the results they deserve, wherever they live.
Building community through EmpowerHER. We co-founded EmpowerHER Wellness Initiative, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to women’s health education. Its annual EmpowerHER Summit brings together pelvic health, menopause, mental health, nutrition and financial experts to reach women who need support and resources.
Recognized in the community. Our work has been featured in BusinessWest, Healthcare News, West Springfield Lifestyle Magazine and American International College.
Renew Health Mission and Vision
Mission
At Renew Health, our mission is to create a positive change in the community by providing a new standard of care and greater access for all genders. We help folks of all ages mitigate symptoms of pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, constipation, pelvic organ prolapse, low back pain, etc. in order to live healthy and active lifestyles. We prepare birthing people for successful labor and delivery as well as providing the much needed postpartum care that is often ignored in traditional medical models. We accomplish this with our one-on-one treatment that is focused on the whole individual, continuous patient education, and by creating a healing environment that fosters trust, compassion, and the ability to be proactive in healthcare.
Vision
Our vision is to be the face of pelvic healthcare in Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut, where passionate clinicians and clients can be proactive in their care.
Our Core Values
Respect
We respect the inherent dignity and rights of all individuals. We foster a connection with our patients that includes trust, compassion, and respect.
Community
We believe in the power of community. By creating a space where individuals feel heard, valued, and understood, we strive to empower our community to achieve optimal pelvic health and break down barriers that limit access to care.
Ownership
By promoting a sense of agency and responsibility, we aim to inspire lasting positive changes that extend beyond the treatment room. Our mission is to facilitate a transformative experience where individuals actively engage in their own healing process, embracing a sense of ownership over their pelvic health and overall quality of life.
Clinical Honesty
We uphold the highest standards in our practice when it comes to ethical decision making, implementing best practice, and guiding patients in the best direction to reach their goals. Our patients receive clarity on how to achieve maximal results based on what they need, not what insurance dictates.
Continuous Improvement
We are dedicated to advancing the standard of care by fostering a culture of ongoing learning, innovation, and refinement. Our docs are dedicated to staying at the forefront of pelvic health research and trailblazing pelvic health in the Western MA and Northern CT regions. Our providers are dedicated to mentoring other pelvic health therapists, both locally and across the United States.
