Bringing The Pelvic Bones Into Pelvic Health
Learn to improve pelvic floor muscle function and eliminate back pain immediately!
Treating The Postpartum Pelvis

Online Self-paced Course
Birth leaves its mark on the postpartum pelvis. The pelvic bones need to move for baby’s passage, and they don’t always return to their optimal position after birth. What position a person was in when their baby came out is essential knowledge for your assessment and treatment plan.
The pelvic mobilization techniques you will learn in this course will help you identify the causes of and treatment for pelvic pain, back pain or pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. These techniques should be done prior to any intravaginal work.

Meet Your Instructor
Lynn Schulte, PT
Lynn has been a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist for over 30 years and is the principal instructor/founder at the Institute for Birth Healing. She has been helping moms heal from all types of issues women experience after birth and is now teaching courses to physical therapists to share her expertise. After working with thousands of women, she discovered something they all had in common; the “Open Birthing Pattern.” The Open Birthing Pattern results from the pelvic bones and muscles not returning to normal positioning, mobility, and function after birth, creating pain, discomfort, and dysfunction. All of our courses focus on a holistic approach, assessments, and treatment techniques to relieve pain and discomfort and restore function.
