Course Summary
Wellness professionals promote prevention daily. Despite affecting 7 out of 10 women, pelvic floor dysfunction is not well-known and prevention and corrective options are lacking. This condition can occur at any age and affects hundreds of thousands of women in the U.S., yet is rarely discussed or addressed. In this course, you will learn about pelvic floor dysfunction and how to help women prevent or address the problems associated with this common, but under-recognized condition. If we can teach prevention early, awareness will increase and the incidence of embarrassing complaints and pelvic organ prolapse will decrease.
