As the only Specialist Physiotherapist in Pelvic Health registered with the New Zealand Physiotherapy Board, I have spent more than 35 years helping people with pelvic health concerns and advancing education for health professionals worldwide.

I hold a PhD from the University of Auckland, a Masters from the University of Melbourne, and postgraduate qualifications in pelvic floor physiotherapy, acupuncture, orthopaedic manipulation, health science, and health coaching.

 

My passion is combining evidence-based practice with practical clinical skills that improve patient outcomes.

Through Dr Melissa Davidson Pelvic Health Training, we provide evidence-informed, clinically relevant education that can be applied immediately in practice. Our online and hybrid courses make high-quality pelvic health training accessible wherever you live.

We welcome physiotherapists, doctors, nurses, midwives, osteopaths, exercise professionals, and other healthcare providers who want to build their pelvic health knowledge and skills.

Together, we can improve access to pelvic health care, support better outcomes for patients, and help #RemoveTheTaboo.

 

Simon is the Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Dr Melissa Davidson Pelvic Health Training.

 

While he's not a physiotherapist, he did have the good sense to marry one in 1990!

With a background in accounting, IT, business management, and healthcare operations, Simon has worked with organisations including the Health and Disability Commissioner, NZSki, AJ Hackett Bungy, Gensolve, Motus Health, and APM Workcare.

Behind the scenes, Simon keeps the business running smoothly, managing technology, operations, memberships, course support, and all the things Melissa would rather avoid.

Drawing on decades of experience in healthcare business management, Simon also provides consultancy to physiotherapy practice owners, helping them improve systems, efficiency, cash flow, accreditation processes, and reduce workplace stress.

Together, Melissa and Simon combine clinical expertise and business experience to support health professionals around the world and help advance pelvic health education through the mission to #RemoveTheTaboo.
