Workshops & Training
For Birth Workers & Doulas
Deepen your understanding of pelvic floor health so you can better support your clients through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery.
Elevate Your Support
Why Pelvic Floor Knowledge Matters for Birth Work
As a doula, lactation consultant, or childbirth educator, you’re often the first person a new mother talks to about what she’s experiencing postpartum. You see her more frequently than her OB. You’re in her home. She trusts you.
That puts you in a unique position to recognize when something isn’t “just normal” and guide her toward the care she needs. With foundational pelvic floor training, you can confidently identify red flags, normalize the conversation, and know exactly when to refer.
Recognize Red Flags
Know the difference between normal postpartum recovery and symptoms that need specialist attention—like persistent leaking, heaviness, or pain.
Build Client Trust
When you can speak knowledgeably about pelvic floor health, your clients feel more supported and confident in your care.
Make Confident Referrals
Know when, why, and how to refer to a pelvic floor physical therapist—and how to explain the value to hesitant clients.
