This introductory lab component will provide you with a strong foundation to be able to treat common pelvic floor diagnoses starting on Monday. This lab will cover both vaginal and rectal assessments and treatments. We will review hands on skills including connective tissue manipulation and trigger point releases.

This continuing education course will teach you how to effectively address the biomechanics of mother and infant during their nursing relationship. A basic understanding of human lactation and the biomechanics surrounding lactation will add significant value to the care of women and infants during their birthing year.
