Individualized approaches for the maintenance and management of women’s pelvic health are increasingly in demand. As pelvic floor dysfunction is multifactorial and origins vary, it is essential as a clinician, to be familiar with available interventions to address each of these dysfunctions and their causes.
This course is a 2-day online webinar that aims to teach participants about the role of physical therapy in the management of female patients presenting with pelvic floor dysfunction related to bowel, bladder and sexual health with focus on non-invasive pelvic floor assessment, diagnosis and rehabilitation techniques. Each segment of the course will address a specific type of pelvic floor dysfunction, discusses the methodology for management, as well as the efficacy of the physical therapy intervention related to treatment of each diagnosis.
