Treating the Postpartum Pelvis

Get immediate results like this…

“Since taking this course, a patient with sciatica had almost full resolution after treating her common postpartum pelvic pattern. One patient who had perineal pain in sitting (16 weeks post op pelvic reconstruction) that was resolving slowly with other treatment, had full resolution after correcting the common postpartum pattern and sacral flexion pattern. This is great stuff!”
Katie H., Physical Therapist

And hear your clients say words like this…

“Today I used these (techniques) on a client. When she left she said ‘I feel like the work you did on my hips today is work I have needed my whole life.’ I thank you for these online courses, amazing work is being done!”
Rachael W., Massage Therapist

You know it’s possible to truly help your postpartum clients.
To see them walk out of your office pain-free, regain their confidence, and fully embrace motherhood.
But how do you get there?

Whether you’re new to treating the pelvic floor — or have been doing this for 20+ years — we know just how frustrating (and mentally exhausting) it is to not see your clients progress.

We also know you don’t have weeks or months to dedicate to extra training — which is why we’ve put together our most powerful techniques in one short, powerful course…

So you can get the most effective results in the shortest time possible. It’s the missing link in postpartum care and one of the most affordable courses we offer.

But don’t just take it from us, read what PT Veronica with 20 years of experience says about it below…

“This course has definitely changed my entire treatment approach of the pelvis, even after being a PT for 20 years. I have already seen immediate changes in my patients’ pelvic floor and with their pain postpartum.”
Veronica J., Physical Therapist

Get your clients out of pain today

This course is the missing link in pelvic health education.

The pelvic bones don’t always return to their optimal position after birth. Learn how to assess and treat the pelvic patterns that may be preventing your client from fully recovering after birth. With just 3 hours of education, you will be able to effectively treat clients that have previously plateaued and achieve results that amaze both you and your clients.

The pelvic mobilization techniques you will learn in this course will help you immediately resolve pelvic pain, back pain and pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. These techniques should be done prior to any intravaginal work.

What Practitioners Say About Our Courses

“Lynn’s Treating the Postpartum Pelvis is a must for anyone working with postpartum clients. I am a physical therapist and I do a lot of manual therapy – these techniques connected a lot of the dots that I see in my patients and gave me a clear and practical protocol to use. I know I will be able to implement them immediately and start getting quicker results with my patients.”
Brenda G., Physical Therapist

“This course was amazing. All practical information that I can immediately apply from a clinical standpoint. I have been working in pelvic health for several years, and this is one of the most actionable courses I have ever taken. Thank you!”
Sarah S., Occupational Therapist

“The course was excellent: What Lynn presented was a new perspective on treating the female body in postpartum, with a look at the birthing position and how this can affect the entire osseous framework, impacting the soft tissues. I’m very satisfied and already putting my new knowledge into practice.”
Valeria M., Physical Therapist

“As a new pelvic health occupational therapist, I found this course to be so accessible without being overwhelming or intimidating. During most online courses, I feel I get “lost in the sauce” , but Lynn’s assessment and treatment techniques were crystal clear, with just the right amount of intuitive listening mixed in. I highly recommend Treating the Postpartum Pelvis, especially to newer practitioners who value a holistic approach!”
Lexy M., Occupational Therapist

“After completing this course, I finally feel like I know how to assess and treat the pelvic bones in my postpartum clients. When I need a refresher, the information will be available to review as needed. I highly recommend the course!”
Kate H., Physical Therapist

“This course changed how I treat all of my patients! Assessing the pelvis with this approach has helped me obtain faster results and assess the body more efficiently.”
Andrea Z., Physical Therapist

“I really liked going through each pattern, signs of that pattern, and how to treat it. I’ve taken the postpartum and pregnant body courses, but there is so much material in those that I found I sometimes got a little bit lost and didn’t know where to start. The postpartum patterns class was super helpful for me to solidify the knowledge of those patterns and how to treat. I’m much more confident now in using this material as well as the material from the postpartum course!”
Natalie G., Occupational Therapist

LAB: Sacral Mobilization – Supine

INTENTION: To see how the sacrum moves in the SIJ looking for even mobility side to side.

Underside View

PATIENT POSITION	Supine
HAND POSITION	Fingers all gathered into one side sacral sulcus supporting each other to press anterior on sacrum
DIRECTION OF MOTION	Force is directed straight up toward the ceiling
ASSESSMENT	To see how the sacrum moves in the SIJ. Right side sacral base is higher and usually restricted in mobility in common birth pattern
TREATMENT	Load the restricted side to end range and hold, also encourage a downward motion toward the feet if that side sacral base was higher. This is Part 1 of 2 parts to correct the sacrum from birth pattern.

Special Notes: Important to correct the sheering part of the sacrum to reduce low back pain. See Part 2.

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.
