INTEGRATION: Integrating Pelvic Health into Your Practice
Build confidence in pelvic health assessment, screening, and patient care
Pelvic health conditions affect millions of people worldwide, yet many remain undetected because patients are never asked about them.
Did you know?
  • Up to 1 in 3 women experience urinary incontinence.
  • Pelvic floor dysfunction affects people of all ages and genders.
  • Many men experience pelvic floor dysfunction following prostate surgery.
  • Most patients will not discuss pelvic health concerns unless specifically asked.
As health professionals, we have an opportunity to identify these issues earlier, provide appropriate support, and improve patient outcomes.

The INTEGRATION Course is an evidence-informed introduction to pelvic health designed for physiotherapists, osteopaths, nurses, midwives, GPs, exercise professionals, and other clinicians who want to confidently incorporate pelvic health into their everyday practice.

In just a short time, you'll gain practical knowledge, clinical insights, and ready-to-use tools that can be applied immediately with the patients you already see.
