Melissa is a great teacher; the course provides a good mix of theory and practical in a safe environment and you come away feeling confident in your new skills – Jenny
The contents of the course was great. Really friendly & supportive learning environment from Melissa and also other colleagues attending the course – Linh
Amazing course, I was hesitant on going the step further into internal exams, but the course was fun, friendly, and not at all scary. The knowledge of the research and the clinical experience Melissa has in this area is very evident in the logical and informative way she has structured this course. I learnt a lot – Nina
Melissa's course on introduction to pelvic floor physiotherapy was a fantastic course that helped me to gain a wealth of knowledge and practical skills for starting to assess and treat pelvic health. Anyone who is looking to focus in this area of Physiotherapy should do this course – Rebecca

- Limited course numbers.
- Both female and male participants are welcome.
- You must be a registered health professional in New Zealand (physiotherapist, osteopath, etc.)
- Morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea will be provided. If you have specific food requirements or allergies, we recommend you bring your own food with you.
- As this is a practical course which involves learning how to complete internal examinations, participants must be willing and able to have vaginal and/or rectal examinations done on them by fellow attendees. We will ensure the environment is private and supportive.
- Participants must also be willing to allow both female and male participants to examine them (if male participants wish to attend the course). Men’s health is just as important as women’s health and this course allows both females and males an opportunity to learn from each other and gain vital, practical clinical skills.
- 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.
