Holistic Bladder Problems and Pelvic Pain Care, plus more, upcoming courses from August through November 2024
There are so many scenarios, individual struggles, and dilemmas for those with pelvic health concerns, such as bladder leakage, overactive bladder (OAB) and pelvic pain. Many also suffer with low back pain, perhaps an autoimmune illness, digestive problems, or have some anxiety and depression in association with the pelvic health challenge, to paint a picture of the potential complexity of the struggles. If you watch much TV you may know about meds to “ask your doctor about”, in direct-to-consumer ads. Meds may help, but typically they do not solve the “roots” of the problem, because there are often many, many roots. Common pelvic health dilemmas include symptoms of recurrent urinary tract infections, which may or may not be unrelated to infections, and hypersensitive bladder conditions, OAB, due to myofascial and lifestyle factors.
Team evaluation and treatment are now recognized and advised by expert medical panels to address the problem's “roots”, for chronic pelvic conditions that linger over three months and beyond. Team treatment can offer medical plus wellness care, from MD, PA, RN, PT, OT, chiropractic, acupuncture, body-workers, meditation teachers, nutritionists, counseling, health coaching, yoga, pilates, and fitness training. With a robust team for healthcare, the principles of integrative, holistic, lifestyle medicine can transform life towards wellness, resilience, and recovery. (With appreciation for feedback from docs whose patients they felt were “transformed” by myself and colleagues in healing journeys with PT plus team support, I use the word “transformed”.)
As an expert, my courses blend holistic care, clinical practice guidelines, myofascial resiliency, embodiment training, and team treatment scenarios. To support education and rehabilitation, I offer a big roster of resources (pdf,s videos, support group info, plus more) for patients and health care providers. I humbly thank my patients for the shared journey of clinical “practice”, and for teaching me about a mandala of healing options that must be patient-centered and adaptable. Colleagues near (San Diego) and far (London, and Warsaw, Poland) have invited me to present courses, as listed below. Look to this site, LinkedIn, and IG for sign-up, wait lists and specific course information such as objectives, format, and fees. CEU options are provided with each class and a certificate of completion.
