Fit and athletic females* experience pelvic health symptoms at high rates with negative impacts on their performance, training longevity, physical and mental health, and quality of life.
Yet many rehabilitation professionals lack the confidence to assess or address them within their clinical settings. Sports medicine and orthopedic providers are rarely trained to include pelvic health, pregnancy, or postpartum variables in their differential diagnoses or return to play programming. Often, they are only empowered to screen and refer. At the same time, pelvic health providers may have limited exposure to the strategies required to progress fit and athletic folks back to fitness, training, or sport. The result is a siloed, less effective model of care: pelvic, pregnancy, and postpartum health needs are untreated, screened and referred (often in pelvic practitioner deserts), or isolated from movement and training programs. Fit and athletic folks are left without resolution, support, or guidance back to play or optimal performance. Our practice patterns must evolve.
Designed for sports medicine and pelvic health providers, this course offers an un-siloed, middle ground. Practitioners will gain a structured thought process to interpret biopsychosocial histories, pelvic health screens, in-sport symptom behavior, and movement analysis to build well-reasoned programs for recreational to elite athletes across the lifespan. Participants are introduced to a contemporary pelvic health model that integrates pelvic floor strength, power, coordination, and endurance into fitness and sport preparation rather than treating them in isolation. Drawing on familiar movement and conditioning principles such as graded exposure, progressive overload, impact and pressure management, and exercise scaling, this course provides a practical, coachable framework for pelvic health. Providers will learn to apply a systems-based thought processes to develop individualized, sport-specific progressions grounded in the whole-athlete presentation.
(This course offers externally focused, indirect, and integrative assessment and intervention strategies only. This course does not provide direct, internal assessment or intervention tools.)

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Pelvic Health & Performance Synergy
Analyse the anatomical and neurophysiological links connecting pelvic function with orthopedic care and sportswear.
Identify Athlete Pelvic Issues
Understand common pelvic health conditions in athletes, from pelvic pain and prolapse to diastasis recti.
Develop Whole-Athlete Risk Profiles
Integrate biopsychosocial factors including age, pregnancy history, training history, stress, sleep, fueling and movement behaviours into athlete assessment and clinical reasoning.
Screening Analysis & Symptom Logic
Use pelvic health screening findings and in-sport symptom behaviour to support exercise selection, loading strategies and return-to-play planning.
Analyze Movement & Sport Demands
Identify movement patterns, fitness demands and sport-specific triggers that influence pelvic health symptoms and performance.
Integrate Pelvic Health Into Rehabilitation & Performance
Create movement-based interventions that coordinate pelvic floor function into rehabilitation, fitness and sport-specific movement patterns.
