I am a Certified Health Coach, Ayurvedic Chef + Doula specializing in postpartum care and Ayurvedic wellness. My philosophy is that a healthy foundation is a catalyst for a healthier future. After struggling with hormonal issues and anxiety, I was determined to find balance and heal. I adopted a regular Ayurvedic practice incorporating, daily meditation, breathwork, yoga and healthy eating into my life which had such a transformative effect that it moved her to study under some of the most influential Ayurvedic teachers in the US and India, including Vasant Lad founder and director of the Ayurvedic Institute, the National Ayurvedic Medical Association's Hilary Garivaltis, The Institute of Culinary Education’s Richard Lamarita, and Vaidya Dr. A.V. 'Krishna' Raju. I completed my DONA Postpartum and Birth Doula training with the renowned Debra Pascali-Bonaro, followed by an internship at, Healthy Mother & Natural Birth Sanctum in Hyderabad, India- an affiliate clinic of the International MotherBaby Childbirth Organization. There I provided gentle birth and postpartum support to women under the guidance of Dr. Vijaya Krishnan and some of the leading midwives in the country. My experience at the clinic was so heartfelt and life-changing that it motivated and inspired me to work towards improving maternal and infant health and create a ripple effect of positive change for a brighter future.

Zarina Vitebsky, a mom of four and co-owner of ProTouch Physical Therapy, began her career with a Masters in Physical Therapy and a speciality in Neurology. Realizing that pelvic floor related issues intrigued Zarina, she began to focus and expand her studies in this area. Training under some of the most prestigious teachers and consistently making time to learn the latest techniques, Zarina soon became one of the most well known & knowledgeable pelvic floor therapists in NJ. When it came to diastasis recti, Zarina used her vast knowledge of how the body works as a whole to understand the best way to treat DRA. By focusing on the entire trunk rather than the abdominal wall, she has maintained a higher than average success rate in reversing diastasis recti. This lead to establishing a very strong following within the local mom communities. ProTouch Physical Therapy also treats orthopedic patients including children as well as male pelvic floor dysfunction. The practice has become a family environment for many of her patients.
