More connected. More thoughtful. More human.

Auria was created to address a crucial gap in healthcare – treating people from a holistic, whole-body perspective, not just the symptom in front of us.

Founder

Dr. Sasha Speer, PT, DPT.

After undergoing a C-section to remove a large endometrioma, I experienced firsthand how difficult recovery could be—and how hard it was to find the kind of specialized, whole-person care I believed should already exist. Even as a physical therapist, I found myself searching for answers, navigating fragmented care, and wishing there was a place that looked beyond the diagnosis to truly understand the person.

That belief became the foundation for Auria.

Today, Auria is built on a simple idea: every person deserves to be heard before they are treated. Our team combines expert rehabilitation with a whole-person approach to help people recover, build resilience, and create lasting health not just for today, but for every stage of life.

Auria Pelvic Health

Auria Pelvic Health was created to address a crucial gap in the medical system by treating individuals from a holistic, whole-body perspective. While our primary focus is on pelvic health, our practitioners are uniquely trained to understand the interconnectedness of the entire body and to address the root causes of your symptoms, helping you to feel whole and healthy again.

We aim to enhance overall wellness by improving posture, strength, and functional capabilities, while minimizing pain and dysfunction. Our premium, 1:1 care ensures personalized, hands-on attention to support your comprehensive health journey. We help you relieve your symptoms and resolve the underlying issues, so you live free of suffering.

Our Philosophy

Auria means "to listen".

The name Auria was inspired by the word auricular—a reminder that the best healthcare begins by listening. Before we evaluate movement or begin treatment, we take the time to understand your story, your goals, your concerns, and what matters most to you.

From there, we look beyond symptoms to understand your body as a whole, identify the root cause, and create personalized care that helps you move with confidence and build lasting health.

Whether you’re here for rehabilitation or wellness, your care is designed around you—because every person deserves to be heard before they are treated.

Experts Behind Auria

At Auria, we’re more than a team of professionals—we’re a group of dedicated, thoughtful individuals committed to helping you reach your health and wellness goals. Together, we bring expertise, genuine compassion, and a shared commitment to making every patient feel supported, understood, and empowered.

What Guides Us
What Guides Us

Four beliefs that shape every decision we make.

Today, Auria is built on a simple idea: every person deserves to be heard before they are treated. Our team combines expert rehabilitation with a whole-person approach to help people recover, build resilience, and create lasting health not just for today, but for every stage of life.

We Listen Before We Treat

Every person arrives with a unique story, goals, and experiences. We believe exceptional care begins by understanding the person not just the diagnosis.

We See the Whole Human

The body doesn’t function in isolated parts, and neither should healthcare. We look at how movement, lifestyle, habits, and health work together to understand the bigger picture.

We Find the Root Cause

Rather than simply chasing symptoms, we seek to understand what’s driving them. Our goal is to create solutions that last, not temporary fixes.

We Build Lasting Health

Recovery is only the beginning. Whether you’re healing from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or investing in lifelong wellness, we’re here to help you build a healthier future.

Sasha is amazing! Her fascia release is healing in ways that other PTs never helped with. It took ten years, but I finally found an incredible PT.

I cannot recommend Dr. Sasha from Auria enough—she truly saved me! Before finding her, I had seen other physical therapists who gave me incomplete or even incorrect information, and my issue was never resolved. Dr. Sasha is incredibly professional and reassuring.She takes a brilliant holistic approach to pelvic health, making you feel seen and heard as a whole person. She helped me through a very difficult time and delivered life-changing results. I am so grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone. Plus, Dr Sasha and her team are very friendly, always on time, and very responsive. She is the absolute best in Los Angeles!

100% recommend. Romina never pushes me too far and always makes sure I am comfortable. I have had chronic pelvic pain for over a decade and since working with Romina I have gone a whole week with no pain waking me up at night, which before pelvic floor therapy I was lucky to get 1-2 nights with no pain. And my husband and I have been able to be “closer” more often from the relief I have gotten from my sessions.

After having a myomectomy that removed multiple fibroids and endometriosis, I’m so glad I found Auria as my pelvic floor therapy provider to aid my recovery. My goal was to regain strength and confidence in working out again and I’ve gotten more out of my therapy program than I expected. Romina has helped me rebuild my pelvic and deep core strength with internal and external therapy, and also teaching me so much about my body. I’ve learned my nervous system has been totally overstressed for so long, my lower back pain is due to a weak inner core, and how much tension is held in the pelvic floor. She taught me how to properly do kegals, how to engage and relax my pelvic floor, how to coordinate my breathing with my pelvic floor, and she’s helped manage my concerns about scarring, lower back pain. I feel like every women should see a pelvic floor therapist and I would 100% recommend Auria and Romina.

The sessions with Dr Sasha at Auria Pelvic Health have been very professional and Dr Sasha is extremely knowledgable in all things to do with the back, hips and general health. I have been encouraged to do a gentle exercise programme to keep my back moving and to keep down inflammation. In addition she is extremely personable and friendly. I fully recommend going to see her at her clinic.

In just 2 weeks of working with Romina I’ve experienced big improvement with the issues I came in for. My quality of life has improved. She’s patient, caring, and passionate about her work. The front office gals, Kim and Ashley, have also been excellent and on top of it in communication. Overall, great experience.

I am a physical therapist myself and sought out Sasha as she is known in the field as being a top notch clinician. She was my last resort after struggling with SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth) for over 2 years. Yes, pelvic health specialists help address gut issues!! I was kicking myself for not going sooner. I tried all the antibiotics, saw a GI doctor and naturopath, but what my body really needed was Sasha. She helped to address very deep scar tissue adhesions from a past abdominal surgery. Not only has she helped my gut issues, but indirectly, helped my hip labral tear too which was a plus. Again, I am a physical therapist and am knowledgable about how to treat myself with traditional PT, but Sasha was the key to unlocking all the fascia, restricted tissue that was desperately needing to be addressed. She is kind, patient, and makes you feel very comfortable. If you are struggling with gut issues, or even labral/hip issues. Go see her, sooner than later. Life is too short to be uncomfortable and in pain.

From day one Dr. Sasha made the appointments a calm, friendly and welcoming environment. When you walk in you are greeted with a warm welcome from Ashley. She made the space very open and comforting. Within a few minutes of my first appointment Dr. Sasha was able to come up with a comprehensive and manageable plan. She was able to determine the work that was needed to correct my issues. I had major surgery in my lower abdomen when I was 6 years ago to remove a tumor. I had Rhabdomyosarcoma and needed extensive surgery, chemo and radiation. For most of my life I have had chronic lower back pain and bladder issues. I have seen many doctors and specialists who have provided little to no help for my issues. Before I saw Dr. Sasha I began to become hopeless. Within these sessions I started to notice my back pain diminish and my bladder issues improved tremendously. My tight hips and pelvic floor issues also began to improve. For the first time in my life I found real answers and someone who understood my complex complaints. Dr. Sasha truly is one of the most knowledgeable medical professionals I have ever worked with. Dr. Sasha also worked on pill rolling my abdomen to break up my scar tissue from my past surgeries. From the skin rolling sessions I was able to start breathing fully with my diaphragm and feeling my core. Dr. Sasha also helped show me how to walk correctly using proper hip alignment. Dr. Sasha is someone who I will continue to see even from the East Coast. I would recommend her to everyone I know!!
