Optimize your fertility with pelvic floor therapy and preconception coaching 〰️
Whether trying to conceive naturally or with assistive reproductive technologies, you deserve to be fully supported as you embark on your journey to your baby.
No “try for a year then come back if you aren’t pregnant.”

I reached out to Jackie after having 2 kids, fertility issues, and three lower abdominal surgeries. It felt so good to have someone take my concerns seriously and acknowledge all my body had been through and that I did need help repairing my body/systems. A very validating and healing experience overall! Jackie is easy to talk to and a gem of a provider...highly recommend!

Hi! I’m Dr. Jackie Joy Roelofs.
I am a New Orleans-based pelvic floor physical therapist passionate about supporting your motherhood journey from preconception all the way to postpartum.
There is a huge gap in New Orleans fertility support - it’s either “Wait a year and come back if you aren’t pregnant yet” or “Straight to the fertility doctors.” Whether you want to conceive naturally or need medical assistance to get pregnant, there is SO much you can do to be proactive and feel your best in this crazy fertility journey.
I know that the trying to conceive journey can be disheartening and exhausting.
