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.

What Students Are Saying:

Loved every moment of this course. Lynn made it so informative and easy to understand that I’m really sad to be finished. I have a whole new understanding of how the body works and how I can listen and assess what needs to be done. One of the best courses I’ve done.

I didn’t know what to expect when I signed up for an online course that was heavily focused on manual techniques; however, Lynn did not disappoint! It was amazing. Her descriptions, demonstrations, and use of repetition made me feel like I was right there in the room with her, and I am confident heading into the clinic to try these techniques.

Thank you very much. I am a slow learner, but I am so enjoying these units. I use your techniques in my practice and it is just incredible no back pain, no SI pain… Women are just going “oh”. It is very comfortable for them. Thank you, Lynn, you are amazing.

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.
