Welcome to The Right Balance, Where You Are the Priority!
Palm Beach's Premier Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy
At The Right Balance, we believe that all women and men should reclaim their pelvic health and embrace a life without the fear of pain, dependence on pads, or overuse of medication. We empower clients to seek solutions to their current situation and a future where they are in control of their bodies so they can fully engage in the activities they love.
We have created a private setting free of distractions where patients find it easier to prioritize themselves and get the most out of each treatment. Our unique approach focuses on the relationship between pelvic health and orthopedics, ensuring faster outcomes and long-lasting results. We believe each muscle and joint is connected and address the mind, body, and emotional components for optimal balance and full healing.
Unfortunately, so many women have become comfortable with the uncomfortable. Here are just a few of the common concerns we hear and treat:
- I am afraid of peeing when jumping rope or playing with my kids.
- I avoid wearing tight pants because I know it will bother me down there the next day.
- I want to wear white pants, but I am unsure if I will make it to the bathroom in time.
- I want to have another baby, but I am worried my body has not bounced back since my first.
- I avoid having sex with my partner because I know it is going to be painful.
- I am unsure if I can exercise, but I want to work on my baby bump.
- I worry I will need to wear a pad every time I run, jump, or lift weights.

Physical Therapy Success Stories
ExcellentBased on 15 reviewsEmily M01/04/2024My experience with The Right Balance has been nothing short of life-changing. I was dealing with some chronic issues that seem to have resolved. Danielle is kind, patient, informative and accommodating with the inevitable schedule mishaps. Couldn't recommend her more highly!Luz Potes04/03/2024Deciding to do Pelvic PT while pregnant has been the best decision made. I have felt the difference in my body. I love Danielle’s attitude and the care she puts towards her patients. So grateful I found The Right Balance PT! Looking forward for postpartum recovery.Candace Woods (Infinite Healthy Living)27/02/2024I found Dr. Rivera while pregnant. I had a great pregnancy but being my first pregnancy and well over 40 I wanted to have things assessed and get some advice prior to the birth. I had a few questions for my Obgyn but the seemed to just brush everything off as “normal”. Dr Rivera (Danielle) was very compassionate, took her time to explain everything and game me some wonderful home exercises to incorporate right away. She performed some manual therapy to my hips and rib cage which helped a lot and explained how these various areas are associated to the pelvic floor also. A few months after the birth I returned to Danielle for reassessment and again she helped me progress quickly and all my friends are in awe at how quickly I’ve “bounced back” postpartum. I highly recommend Dr. Rivera no matter how far you have to drive to see her - she is worth it!Ashley Figueroa27/02/2024Dr. Rivera is a great physical therapist and helped me get relief for my symptoms. She took a holistic approach to treating me and taught me a lot about how other muscles impact the pelvic floor. She worked with me to make sure we made progress with the number of sessions I could afford. I will definitely go back to Dr. Rivera in the future if I need to!Ana Potes04/02/2024My experience with Danielle was 10/10. She is gentle, kind, very knowledgeable and goes the extra mile for her patients. She does a thorough and comprehensive evaluation and reassesses every session. She made me feel prepared and decreased my anxiety to deliver my baby. I will definitely be going back to her post partum and recommend anyone and everyone to go to her for all your pelvic floor needs.Jessica Thomas12/12/2023Danielle is amazing! She is such a great pelvic floor therapist and person. She is very knowledgeable and helpful and always makes me feel very comfortable. I am 34 years old and had been having issues with this area. The problems I was having were really taking a toll on my mental and physical health. I am so lucky and grateful to have been referred to Danielle! I highly recommend her for anyone in need of pelvic floor therapy. Even though Danielle does not take insurance, she is very worth it. She gets to know her clients on a personal level and is always available via phone or text when needed!Avi Baecht11/10/2023Dr. Danielle and her team brought me out of pain and into recovery and maintenance in record time. I felt very comfortable in the office and with the team and felt full support and encouragement as I worked towards healing. I would definitely recommend their services! Great physical therapy practice!Katy Seymour27/07/2023Dr. Danielle Rivera is really the best! She was helpful with my issue plus helped shift my mindset on my situation as well. 10/10 would recommend, and thank you for helping me. I see a difference and it’s a nice thing to see on this journey I’ve had to recovery and a normal life again.Samiya Ahmed13/06/2023Dr. Danielle is professional and caring and does a good job motivating and helping with therapy exercises. She’s easy to talk to and is friendly ?Katie Cannon03/06/2023Every pregnant or postpartum lady needs to come here. I'm so glad I found Danielle after the birth of my daughter and a fourth degree tear. PFPT can be weird - you're dealing with uncomfortable (and sometimes embarrassing) symptoms (#IYKYK) and, after childbirth, a dearth of emotions. Danielle keeps the air light and fun and made everything so easy. She's easy to talk to and I feel comfortable sharing all of what's going on. She immediately found the tension that was causing some discomfort... down there... and I noticed a change in my body in just one or two sessions of addressing it. I'm already feeling stronger in my core after just a handful of appointments and almost all of the symptoms I was having are now gone or greatly diminished! Definitely book an appointment if you're at all considering Pelvic Floor physical therapy or have been recommended to get it from a doctor/midwife.
