My name is Karen Vacaliuc, and I am a birth doula, connecting families through birth. I offer doula services in the Anderson, Knox, Morgan, and Roane Counties. I am passionate about mothers, babies, and family. I also have a deep desire to empower women through positive experiences of pregnancy, labor, and childbirth.
I know that the support I can give to mothers-to-be and their partners, during pregnancy and childbirth, can help make their experience less stressful, more informed, more comfortable, and more satisfying. One quote that I have read before stays with me. “The motherhood ideal is impossible to achieve because it ignores reality. Babies don’t need super mothers, they just need good mothers.” (author unknown) In working together with families, I hope to create a more healthy and satisfying approach to family dynamics in its early stages.

When you reach ~20 weeks gestation, it’s time to establish care with a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist.
Your Pelvic Health Therapist will assess your body function, then design and teach you exercises to utilize as you progress through pregnancy, and educate you in coordination of your pelvic floor with breath work in preparation for delivery.
Additionally, pelvic floor therapy can help you learn how to safely optimize cardiovascular endurance and muscular strength to prepare for the demands of labor/delivery and postpartum tasks.
Main physical goals include:
optimize hip mobility
ensure deep core activation in daily tasks
strengthen posterior chain musculature (to prepare for lifting/carrying of baby)
ensure proper coordination of pelvic floor muscles synchronized with breathing
Research supports the claim that staying active during your pregnancy will improve outcomes in labor & delivery…let’s fast track your recovery and get you feeling better as quickly as possible!
Research supports pelvic floor therapy as a minimally invasive treatment option that should be used as a first-line method for treating various types of pelvic floor dysfunction.

Welcome to Refine Dermatology, a family owned and operated dermatology practice that is focused on improving the health of its patients while using a hospitable approach.
At the head of our team is Dr. Jill Salyards, a board certified dermatologist who specializes in general, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology. After working for larger, corporate owned practices for a few years, she realized her desire to have her own practice that makes the care and experience of the patient the priority, not the profit margin.
Her husband, Andy Salyards, has spent the last decade starting and operating restaurants and has constantly wondered why doctors offices aren’t more hospitable and focus on the patients’ experience.
They decided to take the leap and open Refine Dermatology to allow people a local option for their dermatology care where patients are confident that they will see a doctor at their visit and will be treated with kindness and respect; nothing less.
