Description

Pelvic Rehabilitation
Pelvic dysfunction affects a wide range of people: young athletes, expecting mothers, men with prostate cancer, etc. Statistics show that most individuals, particularly women, in the United States experience some type of pelvic pain in their lifetime. Most of these individuals feel a sense of hopelessness or are too embarrassed by their predicament to seek treatment for their pain or discomfort. Much of the information that patients seek regarding pelvic or obstetric dysfunctions is outdated or too difficult to find. When the pain becomes too much or their quality of life is compromised due to pelvic dysfunction, how will rehab and medical professionals respond?

In this one-day seminar, participants learn practical management strategies and techniques that will successfully treat their patients' dysfunctions and improve their quality of life. Learn how to secure referrals from appropriate sources to treating patients with specialized conditions without specialized equipment. Attendees walk away from this course ready to use treatment strategies that will bring restoration and comfort back to their patients.
