About

Here at Moment of Truth Physical Therapy, we love helping men and women have healthy, active lives, free from pain and restrictions and feeling whole and confident in their health.  

We offer a $49 discovery visit for several reasons:

          1) Most people have never heard of pelvic physical therapy or myofascial release.

          2) If they have heard of it, they have no idea if they need it.

          3) Even if they're sure they need it, they have no idea how we can help or                                                                                                          what's going to happen when they come in.

That is not how we want you to feel! We want you to feel honored and heard. We want you to have a sense of peace that this is the right place for you to be, confident in the care you will receive. We want to build some trust, for you to feel safe. That all goes so much better when we meet face-to-face and have a chance to talk about what is going on and how we can help. Click here to request your discovery session now or click here to watch a video about WHY we do them!

We are here to help you know and trust your body, to feel confident in what you need to heal and feel whole again, to have the best pregnancy and delivery you can, without pain, medications or limitations! 

 

With more than 25 years of experience as a physical therapist, Amy Vander Linden is passionate about helping women and men move beyond pain, trauma, pelvic dysfunction, and physical limitations so they can fully thrive in their bodies and lives. Her approach combines evidence-based care with a whole-body understanding of healing, empowering patients to restore confidence, reconnect with their bodies, and return to the activities they love.

Amy specializes in pelvic floor physical therapy, myofascial release, visceral manipulation, sexual wellness, and trauma-informed care. She is especially passionate about supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum recovery, pelvic pain, bladder and bowel dysfunction, painful intercourse, core dysfunction, and perimenopause and menopause transitions. She also treats babies to help ensure they have an optimal start. Her mission is to help patients understand that while many symptoms may be common, they are not normal — and healing is possible.

As a practitioner trained in the John F. Barnes approach to Myofascial Release, Amy understands the powerful role fascia plays in the body. Fascial restrictions can contribute to chronic pain, tension, mobility limitations, and nervous system dysfunction. Through myofascial release and visceral therapy techniques, she focuses on treating the root cause of symptoms rather than simply masking pain.

Amy founded Moment of Truth Physical Therapy to provide individualized, compassionate pelvic healthcare in Peoria and the West Valley. In 2020, she expanded into The Healing Space Yoga Studio to offer yoga, massage, nervous system support, and wellness services under one roof, reflecting her belief that healing is most effective when the whole person is supported.

In addition to patient care, Amy is an educator, speaker, podcast host, and creator of educational content focused on pelvic health, fascia, sexual wellness, trauma healing, and women’s health empowerment.

Her philosophy is simple: no settling, no suffering, and no shame. 

 

Kaylen Ross, OTD, OTR/L, earned her Doctorate of Occupational Therapy from Huntington University after completing her undergraduate education at Grand Canyon University. Her passion for pelvic health began during her doctoral capstone with a human trafficking organization, where her research highlighted the powerful connection between trauma, physical health, daily function, and a person’s ability to feel safe and connected within their body.

That experience led Kaylen to pursue additional training in functional pelvic health, completing two specialized courses focused on whole-person care through a trauma-informed lens. Her passion has only deepened since becoming a mother herself and experiencing firsthand the physical and functional changes of pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, and motherhood.

Kaylen brings a unique occupational therapy perspective to pelvic wellness by asking an important question: How is this affecting the way you actually live your life? From caring for a baby, exercising, and returning to work to intimacy, sleep, self-care, and relationships, pelvic health can influence nearly every aspect of daily life.

Having both Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy within our pelvic health team provides complementary perspectives—addressing not only how the body moves and heals, but how that healing translates into real life.

Kaylen is passionate about helping patients feel more connected to their bodies, confident in their daily lives, and supported as whole people throughout their healing journey.

 

 

Monique Seitz, LMT, has been a dedicated Licensed Massage Therapist for more than seven years. She is passionate about creating a comfortable, supportive space where therapeutic touch can help facilitate healing, decrease tension, improve mobility, and help clients feel more at home in their bodies.

Monique understands that no two bodies—or healing journeys—are the same. She draws from a wide range of techniques, including trigger point therapy, Swedish massage, active massage techniques, lymphatic massage, cupping, abdominal release, and Gua Sha, allowing her to tailor each session to the individual needs and goals of the person in front of her.

Her passion for massage began at a young age, working with family and friends, and continued to grow into a career centered around helping others feel and function better. Monique especially enjoys combining techniques to address areas of restriction and tension while supporting circulation, lymphatic flow, relaxation, and overall well-being.

Beyond hands-on treatment, Monique loves educating clients about their bodies and the benefits of incorporating therapeutic massage into their overall wellness and self-care. Her goal is for every client to leave feeling not only better, but more connected to what their body needs.
