Dr. Alex Furtado

DPT, CPPC
Physical Therapist

I graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 2015 and practiced in New England for over a decade in orthopedics, sports physical therapy, and pelvic health. I’ve had the privilege of working with clients ranging from youth to professional athletes, the military, and those wanting to be healthy and active in their daily lives. During this time, I developed an interest in health and wellness through the spectrum of care from physical therapy to nervous system regulation, fitness performance, and beyond. I have additional training as a birth and postpartum doula, fitness through pregnancy and postpartum recovery, menopause transition, and several performance coaching certifications. Upon moving to Iowa, we completed our family of four, and my passion for helping those improve their relationship with health, movement, and life balance has only increased as I recovered from my own traumatic birth, difficult recovery, and struggle with stepping into my new identity as a mother and working professional. Whether you’re an athlete or someone looking to enhance your well-being, I am dedicated to providing person-centered care where you are actively heard, and we are collaborating together towards your health and wellness goals.
