Did you learn how to assess these muscles?

I am a family nurse practitioner and a champion of women’s health. I even ran a women’s health program for a large medical institution for over a decade! For the first four years, I never thought much about the pelvic floor and the impact it has on women’s health overall, but after undergoing breast cancer treatment, I had significant dyspareunia and learned — as a pelvic floor therapy patient — how important pelvic health is...and how little I learned about it in my NP training.?

My lovely colleague, Melissa Hines, PT, DPT is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and is a pelvic floor physical therapist who founded one of the country’s leading interdisciplinary private pelvic health clinics in Boston, MA. Melissa is passionate about women’s health and teaching other providers how to bridge the disconnect between pelvic health, primary care and OB/GYN.?

We’re both working moms ??.

?

Together, we are the powerhouse behind our interdisciplinary clinic. Our unique interdisciplinary approach has worked very successfully in helping thousands of patients. We mentor and train other women’s healthcare providers and created the Institute for Pelvic Health? to fill the gap in pelvic health education, share knowledge and provide new learning opportunities.?

We are also authors! Yes, in between naps, seeing patients, and being moms, we wrote a book! We want you to have our favorite chapter. Click here to download it now.
