Meet Erin Collins, PT, MSPT
YOUR FEMALE PHYSICAL THERAPIST IN COLUMBUS, OHIO
HI, I’M ERIN—
I’m a licensed female physical therapist in Columbus, OH, and the founder of The Modern Physio, a women’s physical therapy and wellness studio in Grandview Heights.
I started Modern Physio because I saw how often women were dismissed or left without answers in traditional healthcare. Too many were told “everything looks fine” while still living with pain, fatigue, or frustration. I wanted to create a place where women feel seen, supported, and confident in their ability to heal.
For nearly two decades, I’ve combined evidence-based physical therapy with Pilates, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle medicine to help women feel strong, grounded, and connected to their bodies again.
My work goes beyond managing pain; it’s about helping you understand your body’s story and giving you the tools to move through life with trust and ease.
A Holistic Physical Therapist for Women
Holistic Physical Therapist?
WHAT IS A
My job as a physical therapist isn’t just to treat what hurts; it’s to uncover why it hurts.
I take a whole-person, ecosystem approach that considers how your nervous system, movement patterns, and lifestyle habits all work together.
Each session is one-on-one and tailored to you.
We’ll look at posture, strength, breath, stress, sleep, and daily routines to understand what your body’s been compensating for and how to restore balance.
HOW HOLISTIC PHYSICAL THERAPY
Helps Women Feel Whole Again
Physical therapy is a foundation for lifelong wellness. My clients come to Modern Physio to heal, but they leave with a deeper understanding of their bodies and the confidence to care for themselves long-term.
Therapy can help you:
Release chronic pain and tension
Rebuild mobility, posture, and strength Improve strength and flexibility through Pilates-based movement
Support hormone balance and nervous system regulation
Learn how to move, rest, & recover with intention
Every woman deserves care that feels both scientific and intuitive. That’s exactly what we create together: care that works with your body, not against it.
“Absolutely incredible.”

MY LIFE
Beyond the Clinic
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me balancing a full, busy life as a wife and mom to three amazing girls. We live here in Grandview with a house full of pets, a dog, and three cats who keep things lively.
My days are full of kids' practices, basketball and soccer games, and so. many. cheer competitions, but I make time to recharge with strength training, yoga, Pilates, and soaking up some sun relaxing on our deck. I love good books, The Real Housewives (OG series only, please!), and watching This Old House and House Hunters International with the hubs.
That balance between movement and stillness is what inspires the work I do every day. I know firsthand how stress, hormones, and life changes affect the body, and I use that understanding to help women find strength and calm again.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Modern Physio is located in Grandview Heights, near downtown inside Modo Yoga Columbus. I work with women from across central Ohio, including Upper Arlington, Dublin, Hilliard, and Worthington.
Free parking is available in Modo Yoga's parking lot. Additional parking is available behind the studio for when the front lot is full. These spots are free for the first 90 minutes and all day on Sundays. However, parking there does require use of the ParkMobile app.
-
Modern Physio is a cash-based, out-of-network practice. I don’t work with or communicate directly with insurance companies, which allows me to provide longer, more personalized sessions without billing or procedural restrictions. Payment is collected at the time of service, and HSA or FSA funds are accepted.
-
Your first session is a comprehensive evaluation that lasts 90 minutes to two hours. We’ll discuss your history, goals, and symptoms, complete movement and nervous system assessments, and outline a plan that fits your lifestyle. This extended timeline also allows ample space for treatment so that you leave feeling better than you arrived.
-
Not always. In physical therapy sessions, Pilates is often part of the plan, but depending on your needs and desires, a session may focus entirely on bodywork, manual techniques, or mobility work instead. In private Pilates sessions, however, the full session is dedicated to mindful movement, with elements like self-mobilization, fascial release, and self-massage woven in to create a complete, restorative workout.
-
I specialize in working with women who want a more personal, integrative experience with physical therapy. My clients include professionals, moms, athletes, and women managing chronic tension or burnout. Many of my patients turn to me after previous experiences with rehab providers leave them wanting more.
