nidhi
Nidhi is a pelvic floor physical therapist who lives in Purchase, NY, with her husband and their spirited five-year-old son. A first-generation Indian immigrant, she moved to the United States at the age of 20 and has built a life that blends her roots with her love for New York. While she misses home every day, she cannot imagine living anywhere other than Westchester, where she enjoys the unique balance of suburban calm, natural beauty, and easy access to the cultural richness of the city. As the founder of Pelvic Harmony Physical Therapy, Nidhi is passionate about helping women understand and care for their bodies through every season of life – whether that’s pregnancy, postpartum, or beyond. She has seen firsthand how often women are caught off guard in their health journeys and believes in shifting that narrative from fear to empowerment. When she’s not working with patients, Nidhi loves hiking, tending to her garden with a cup of coffee in hand, and blogging about the intersections of motherhood, health, and everyday life. You can find her on Instagram at @PelvicHarmony.pt or visit her website at PelvicHarmony.org.
