Brande graduated in 1994 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science/Physical Education, and in 1999 with a Master’s Degree in Physical Therapy. She started her physical therapy career working in orthopedic and neurological rehabilitation, but quickly discovered her interest in the area of Women’s Health. She actively pursued continuing education and has worked over the last 25 years to develop her specialty for the treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. In 2022, she enrolled in a post-professional physical therapy doctorate program in musculoskeletal management, which she completed in 2024.

Brande has also completed training in the utilization of sEMG intra-vaginal and intra-rectal biofeedback for the purpose of neuromuscular re-education for dysfunctional voiding and defecation disorders, as well as sexual pain disorders.

Brande has been in private practice for greater than 17 years, and she has an estimated 50,000 hours of working in a pelvic health related specialty. She is passionate about teaching, and thus plans to spend more time mentoring and teaching in years to come.
