Pelvic floor course for acupuncturists
First Pelvic Floor Course of Its Kind Targeting PostPartum & Menopause
Pregnancy and childbirth bring about profound physiological changes, including increased load on the musculoskeletal system, overstretching of pelvic floor muscles, shifts in pelvic alignment, and hormonal fluctuations. Postpartum acupuncture and rehabilitation of the pelvic floor are essential for restoring core stability and reducing the risk of conditions such as urinary frequency, incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and dyspareunia (pain during intercourse).
This course equips acupuncturists with evidence-based tools for postpartum care, including acupuncture protocols, athletic taping applications, therapeutic breathing strategies, targeted physical therapy exercises, and yoga-based interventions. These techniques not only optimize recovery for postpartum patients but can also be applied to perimenopausal populations experiencing similar pelvic floor challenges.
Acupuncturists will leave with actionable strategies to enhance patient outcomes and integrate pelvic floor rehabilitation into routine care.
Modalities
