About Maya Okafor

Pelvic health is family health. When I work with a mother recovering after birth, I'm working with her whole community her partner, her in-laws, the expectations of her culture. Healing has to honour all of that.

Priya Sharma is a registered physiotherapist with over 11 years of clinical experience specializing in pelvic health, postnatal recovery, and sports rehabilitation. Born in Punjab and trained in Toronto, she brings cultural fluency to a clinical specialty where most practitioners don't share their clients' lived experience.

Her practice centres on South Asian women navigating postnatal recovery, pelvic floor concerns, and chronic pain areas where cultural taboo often delays care for years. Priya creates a clinical space where conversations about the body don't require translation between English clinical language and lived cultural understanding.

Priya holds advanced certifications in pelvic floor physiotherapy (Levels I-III), visceral manipulation, and perinatal care. She works primarily with women aged 25-55, but maintains a small caseload of athletes and chronic pain clients across all demographics.

Session formats: In-person at the Mississauga clinic (60-min initial assessment, 45-min follow-ups), or virtual consultation for non-hands-on cases. Insurance billing supported through most major Canadian insurers.

How my background shapes my work

My mother had untreated pelvic prolapse for fifteen years because there was no one she could speak to about it in her own language and frame of reference. I do this work so that women in my community don't have to wait that long to be heard.
