The best SimplePractice alternative for pelvic floor specialists
SimplePractice is built primarily for mental-health practitioners. If you're a cash-pay pelvic floor specialist, the UI was never designed for your workflow. The intake form templates lean clinical-therapy. The telehealth-first product structure does not match a hands-on practice.
When SimplePractice is the wrong shape
SimplePractice's core product is therapy practice management: charting templates assume mental health, telehealth is first-class, the intake forms emphasise psychotherapy intake structure. For a cash-pay pelvic floor specialist, the workflow mismatch shows up in everyday friction: configuring an in-person 90-minute initial pelvic exam takes more clicks than it should, the intake form template wants you to choose between 'biopsychosocial' and 'medical history' frames neither of which fits your practice cleanly. Pricing starts at $29/month for Starter (without billing) and runs to $99/month for the Plus tier with everything; somewhere in the middle is the right SimplePractice fit, and it never quite lands.

Why Junocal fits hands-on pelvic-floor work
Intake templates designed specifically for pelvic-floor screening — POP-Q grading, incontinence severity scales, postnatal-specific fields, sexual-health screening with optional handling. Sensitive-section handling that collapses sensitive content by default for client dignity. Per-service deposits sized for the 60 and 90-minute hands-on session, not the 50-minute therapy hour. A branded booking page at your own URL (junocal.com/yourstudio) that signals a real practice. The product is built for the cash-pay solo pelvic-floor specialist running a hands-on practice, not adapted from a telehealth-first mental-health platform.
Questions
Can I import my SimplePractice client list?
Yes. Export your client list as CSV from SimplePractice's reports section. Import the CSV into Junocal at /app/clients/import. Names, emails, phone numbers, and demographic fields carry across; clinical history (SOAP notes, treatment plans) stays in SimplePractice as historical record.
What about my SimplePractice SOAP notes and treatment plans?
Junocal uses a free-text session-notes field per booking rather than SOAP-style clinical charting. The deliberate scope is cash-pay wellness rather than clinical record-keeping. Most cash-pay practitioners who transition find that brief practitioner-reference notes are what their hands-on practice actually needs; the SimplePractice clinical record stays accessible in your existing export for as long as you keep that account.
Will my telehealth setup carry across?
Junocal supports telehealth as a service type — paste your Zoom, Google Meet, or Whereby URL into the service and clients receive it in the booking confirmation and 24-hour reminder. For practices that run telehealth as one mode alongside hands-on work, this is the lighter setup that gets out of the way. For practices that are telehealth-primary with integrated video as a core requirement, a video-first platform is structurally aimed at that shape.
What if my practice mixes therapy and pelvic-floor work?
Run Junocal for the cash-pay pelvic-floor segment where intake screening, deposits, and a branded storefront matter most. The cash-pay segment is where the conditional-logic intake and the per-service deposit policies earn their keep every week. The product is intentionally focused on this shape rather than trying to do everything.
Is Junocal HIPAA compliant?
Junocal is built for cash-pay practitioners — wellness-coded, not clinical — and the product scope is intentionally outside HIPAA. If your pelvic-floor work involves billing insurance or otherwise handling protected health information under HIPAA, you need a HIPAA-compliant tool for that segment; Junocal works for the cash-pay portion of your practice without conflict.
