Emily Craddock (She/Her)

Inspired early on by her mother’s career as a certified nurse midwife and nurse practitioner, Emily grew up witnessing the transformative power of compassionate, dignifying care surrounding women’s health and childbirth. Driven by an innate curiosity and empathy, she saw a vital need for broader patient education and dedicated care in pelvic health—a field long underserved and often misunderstood. Emily integrates her passion for human movement, biomechanics, and pelvic wellness to deliver thorough, individualized care that honors every step of a patient’s healing journey.

Emily’s background spans specialized rotations in dance medicine at MVMT Physical Therapy and pediatric rehab at NYU Langone. Her post-graduate work through the Institute of Physical Art (IPA) covers functional mobilization, PNF, and visceral manipulation. Paired with internal pelvic health mentorship from Beyond Basics’ senior team, Emily uses skilled manual therapy and targeted, impairment-driven care to help patients restore function and movement and relieve pain.

Before transitioning to physical therapy, Emily spent years as a professional glassblower and neon instructor at Brooklyn’s UrbanGlass. Years of teaching a precise, hands-on art form honed her unique ability to translate complex biomechanical concepts into clear, practical education that empowers her patients.

Outside of the clinic, Emily is a lifelong learner who loves staying active and creative. You can often find her salsa dancing, hiking, or making art.
