To attend this course, you must already be practicing as a pelvic health professional and completing internal examinations with patients. You must be a registered health professional in good standing in New Zealand, or Australia, or your home country.
If you are a nurse, GP, or gynaecologist already doing regular vaginal examinations, you do not have to have attended any of our courses.
For physiotherapists, osteopaths, etc., who have attended Melissa's courses already, the pre-requisites are:
INTERNALS: Introduction to Pelvic Health Internals; and
ADVANCED: Advanced Level Pelvic Health
AND have at least one year's practical experience performing regular patient vaginal examinations.
If you have attended courses with other reputable trainers in New Zealand or Australia (or somewhere else) where internal examination skills are taught, please get in touch with Melissa to confirm you can attend this course. Or are unsure if you have enough practical experience to meet the pre-requisites, please contact Melissa at [email protected].

There will be practical assessments during the course testing clinical assessment skills learned on the weekend to ensure at the end of the course you are competent. These are completed throughout the weekend and done in a relaxed, comfortable fashion. You will need to pass these assessments to complete the course.
A post-course test and evaluation will need to be completed immediately after the two-day course. There will also be competency documentation that needs to be completed over six months prior to you receiving your completion certificate.
