Dr. Julie Berube

Hi there! I'm Dr. Julie Berube, owner of LiveWell CNY Physical Therapy and pelvic floor physical therapist. I felt called to start a physical therapy practice specializing exclusively in women's pelvic health after witnessing how frequently pelvic floor conditions are overlooked or dismissed.
Our practice consists of Doctors of Physical Therapy who have also completed advanced training in internal pelvic floor muscle assessment and treatment. We work with women during pregnancy to address leaks, pain, stay active, and prepare for labor and delivery. We work with women after both vaginal and Cesarean deliveries to address diastasis recti/abdominal separation, pelvic organ prolapse, leakage, urinary or bowel concerns, pain with sex, painful periods, perineal and C-section scars, and develop a plan for returning to exercise.
It's our mission to truly revolutionize the standard of women's pelvic healthcare in our community. We are honored to be a part of your pregnancy and postpartum journey and can't wait to meet you!

Angela Mosley

I'm Angela, wife, mother of 4, and lover of Christ and wellness. I love helping moms feel
empowered and confident in their own bodies. As a certified Personal Trainer, Pre & Postnatal
Corrective Exercise Specialist and Glute Specialist, I get to help moms feel and look their best
with effective exercise post-baby and beyond.
When moms feel empowered and confident in their own bodies by taking care of themselves,
they're able to confidently live a fulfilling life. That's why I love helping moms pursue their best
selves through fitness, nutrition and mindset coaching.
My love for fitness started while serving in the military and it blossomed from there. I've been in
the health and wellness industry for 6 years in various positions and gyms. As a busy mom of 4,
I can understand how hard fitting in time to take care of yourself can be. That's why I created
the Fit Mom Membership so moms like you and I running busy households have plenty of
fitness options with the workout times we need to workout at home.
With my specialization in postpartum corrective exercise, I get to help moms improve their
urinary incontinence, diastasis recti and help moms eliminate “flat butt” while getting stronger all
over.
One of my greatest joys, is helping women feel confident and stronger in their new bodies as a
mother.
