Pelvic Health Physical Therapy Level 1 Webinar

The PH1 (Pelvic Health Physical Therapy Level 1) consists of two separate courses, PH1 Webinar and PH1 Lab. Both PH1 Webinar and PH1 lab courses must be completed and successfully passed in order to fully complete PH1. The PH1 Webinar is a required prerequisite for PH1 Lab. You may not advance to PH1 Lab without having successfully completed the PH1 Webinar.

In this live webinar course, physical therapy professionals will learn the foundational skills needed to evaluate and treat patients with pelvic health dysfunction, with an emphasis on underactive pelvic floor muscle conditions. 

Topics include the anatomy of the pelvic girdle, physiology of micturition, dysfunctions of the lower urinary tract and pelvic muscles, patient history examination, and testing and treatment interventions for underactive pelvic floor muscle conditions. Additional areas of focus include urogynecologic surgeries, medications, prevention of pelvic floor dysfunction, and documentation best practices. Participants will receive free access to the Urogynecological Clinical Evaluation and Treatments, Level 1 (2.0 contact hours) online video course. 

Please carefully review each course’s individual description, objectives, time-ordered agenda, and lab requirements before registering.
