About us!

My name is Taber Starowicz, and I have been a registered Occupational Therapist in New York State for 11 years. At Rehab2Home, we offer a comprehensive range of services, with a special emphasis on pelvic floor therapy, alongside occupational therapy for older adults.

Throughout my career, I have dedicated 11 years to working with the geriatric population in a sub-acute rehabilitation facility. I take pride in closely collaborating with families and patients as they navigate the complexities of the rehabilitation process, guiding them through the necessary steps should a higher level of care become essential.

In addition to my work with older adults, I have spent 12 years working with the pediatric population, 8 of which I have served specifically as an occupational therapist. I work with children from preschool through high school, focusing on essential skills for success in a school environment, including sensory regulation, bilateral coordination, as well as visual-motor and visual-perceptual skills. My commitment extends beyond these areas, as I engage with families to ensure their children receive appropriate services and effectively navigate the school-based process.

My interest in pelvic floor therapy was ignited by my own experience with infertility. The intensity of the process was traumatic. After enduring years of treatment on my journey toward pregnancy, I faced trauma from the intensity of the process, which led to a leakage problem. When I sought answers, I was told it was normal for my age, especially following the treatments and surgeries I had undergone. In my pursuit of solutions, I became a pelvic floor practitioner myself, driven to help others experiencing pelvic floor dysfunction. You are not alone; I understand the challenges of infertility and pelvic dysfunction and its impact on pelvic health. I am here to help!

At Rehab2Home, we partner with families and clients to support them at every stage of their journey—be it remaining at home, navigating the complexities of transitions to a higher level of care, or addressing pelvic floor and nervous system dysfunction. Our goal is to help you feel at home in your body again and to live with greater confidence.

Services

Occupational Therapy

An occupational therapist works with you to make daily activities—like getting dressed, cooking, bathing, moving around the house, or enjoying hobbies—easier and safer.  As we age, these tasks can become more challenging.  At Rehab2Home we help facilitate a safe transition for older adults if they have had an admission in the hospital or rehabilitation facility and back home.  

Services can include: 

-Navigating the discharge process with families

-Assessing the home for safety and risk

-Recommending modifications or equipment

-Personalized exercises to improve strength, balance and daily living skills


Pelvic Floor Therapy

Pelvic floor therapy is a specialized treatment designed to strengthen the muscles at the base of the pelvis, which support the bladder, bowels, and other vital organs. As we age, these muscles may weaken, potentially leading to issues such as urinary incontinence, constipation, and increased frequency of bathroom visits. This therapy teaches exercises and techniques aimed at enhancing muscle strength and coordination. For older adults, the benefits can include fewer bathroom accidents, improved control, reduced discomfort, and increased confidence in daily life. Additionally, pelvic floor therapy contributes to better balance, posture, and overall core strength, making everyday activities safer and easier.

Symptoms we treat:

-Frequent urination or urgency to get to the bathroom

-Urinary leakage

-Constipation

-Bowel incontinence

-Prolapse

-Pelvic pain or pressure

-Pain with intercourse

-Breathwork

-Many other symptoms as well!oom accidents, improved control, reduced discomfort, and increased confidence in daily life. Additionally, pelvic floor therapy contributes to better balance, posture, and overall core s

How does pelvic floor and occupational therapy work?

Taking a holistic approach means treating individually by considering all aspects of a person's life and wellness. Addressing digestive health, physical health, mental health and social health and wellbeing, we end up focusing on what the client wants to get back to doing. You have a choice in your treatment and can opt in or out of anything we recommend.  


How long do I need to attend pelvic floor therapy or occupational therapy?

It depends on the person and the severity of the issues and what the goals are for the client. We create our treatmentllans with clients to decide what length of time is recommended and what works for their daily needs.  


Do you do internal work for pelvic floor therapy?

We offer many treatment options, including internal work. We believe there is no one right way to do anything. Every person has choices in their healthcare, and we honor and respect our clients care. You may choose any options of treatment, and you may choose to opt out.  


Do I need a doctor's order to be seen for pelvic floor or occupational therapy services?

Yes, and we prefer you to have one ready for your first appointment. We are able to see you for an initial consult without one but require a doctor to sign our plan of care. This is so everyone is on board and is taking a multidisciplinary approach to your best treatment.  

Testimonials

"Meeting Taber many years ago at Park Ridge Hospital turned into a blessing. With a firm but friendly attitude, Taber assisted guiding me on the road to recovery. Her expertise and general knowledge provided very useful. Being a practicing medical physician I thought I knew what I needed to do, guess I was wrong!  Thanks Taber"


Dr. Bruce Hira


"Taber helped my family enormously when we had to find nursing care and eventually end of life care for my father. This is a very hard process for any family to go through, and Taber's knowledge and compassion made it so much easier for us during a difficult time. If your family is facing any of these very difficult decisions and you feel overwhelmed or lost, I highly recommend Rehab2Home. Taber will compassionately walk you through the process to give you the peace of mind.  Thank you, Taber!"
