Meet your PT

I am Desiree Pabin, PT, DPT, WCS, PRPC, CAPP-Pelvic, PCES. I am the owner of Illume Pelvic Health Physical Therapy & Wellness. I am a Board Certified Women’s Health Physical Therapist. I was born in California, and raised in Chandler, AZ. I attended La Sierra University in Riverside, CA, where I received my Bachelors of Science in Health and Exercise Science with a minor in Health Science in 2011. I went on to attend Mount Saint Mary’s University in Los Angeles, CA, where I received my Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2014.

I am a lifetime learner and have a hobby if collecting “letters.” I currently have every certification attainable for treating pelvic health patients. Other than being Board Certified in Women’ Health (WCS) I also have attained Pelvic Rehabilitation Practitioner Certification (PRPC), the Certificate of Achievement in Pelvic Physical Therapy (CAPP-Pelvic) and the Pregnancy and Post-partum Corrective Exercise Specialist (PCES) certification.

Education in pelvic health physical therapy has always been something I chased. I knew prior to getting into PT school I wanted to pursue this specialty. Part of my treatment philosophy is that there is no such thing as “taboo” and I strive to make my treatment space welcoming to all genders and topics a patient wants to discuss.

In my pre-professional life I was a collegiate athlete and I still play recreational adult soccer and coach my daughters AYSO team. My family and I enjoy camping, hiking and anything outdoors, especially if it involves water.
