Overview
In this bundle, we are joined by guest expert Gillian McCabe. Gillian is a clinical physiotherapist and women’s health physiotherapist and she is teaching us about the importance of the pelvic floor muscles for everyone but particularly for ante and post natal women and the older demographic. This is an area often ‘forgotten’ or ‘brushed over’ due to a lack of understanding or confidence but is fundamental alongside core activation for every exercise. This bundle should give you the knowledge and confidence needed to support your clients further.
The training explores:
- Pelvic and core anatomy
- Effects of pregnancy and childbirth
- Effects of ageing
- How to activate the pelvic floor muscles
- Pitfalls to avoid
- Principles of pelvic floor muscle training
What will I get access to?
