Origin is a progressive women's health company offering physical therapy for the over 40M women experiencing incredibly common but overlooked health issues specific to the female body. Based in Los Angeles, Origin provides both in-person and virtual care with a specialized focus on pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and sexual health.
After a decade as a beloved local practice, Origin relaunched in 2020 to expand its reach and fulfill its mission to improve and enhance women’s experiences through every stage of life. The company offers virtual and in-person PT sessions, covered by insurance, in addition to proprietary at-home educational content, and community experiences.
Origin was co-founded by Carine Carmy, Nona Farahnik Yadegar, and David Yadegar after experiencing first-hand the success of physical therapy to treat personal health issues— following years of missed diagnoses, ineffective treatment options, and hearing “that’s just the way it is.” Today, Origin is building a category-defining brand that establishes a higher standard of care for every woman.
In addition to its full-service Brentwood location, Origin is currently offering virtual care in California, New York, and Texas with plans to expand its physical and digital practices this summer. The company is backed by notable investors including Brand Foundry Ventures, The Blue Venture Fund, Founders Factory New York (Johnson & Johnson Innovation), Steel Sky Ventures, Springbank Collective, and Pipeline Capital Partners.
