Enroll nowImagine feeling confident with your next dyspareunia patient.
Are you tired of prescribing lidocaine and saying relax and drink wine when you know it’s not really going to help?
Have you considered the tone or motor control of their pelvic floor muscles?
Or what about the patient with multiple negative urine cultures who still has urethral burning? Antibiotics work in the short term, but your patient is still symptomatic and keeps calling again and again. What can you do?
Have you considered that your patient might have hypertonic pelvic floor muscles compressing the urethra?
And how many times have you encountered patients with vaginal cultures and STI cultures within the normal range but who still have abnormal vaginal discharge, irritation, and redness?
Have you considered that hypertonic pelvic floor muscles could be irritating one of their pelvic floor nerves and causing these vasomotor symptoms? And, what if you live in a rural area or work with an under-resourced patient population where it’s next to impossible to get your patients to a pelvic floor therapist? Have you considered that YOU are the person to help?
You already do bimanual exams. Who better than you to assess and treat pelvic floor dysfunction?
Beyond the Kegel will give you the confidence you need.
Why don’t more women’s health providers learn assessment of the pelvic floor muscles and motor control? Most of us learn head-to-toe musculoskeletal assessment, so why not this?
The Institute for Pelvic Health™ is here to revolutionize women’s health by showing you how important (and easy) treating pelvic health is. There’s no one better than you to do it. Your patients depend on you. It’s time to change the paradigm!

Rebekah T., NP in Alabama
"I’m an FNP in Alabama working in an OBGYN office. My nursing career has been mainly postpartum and NB nursery. I have always had a passion for helping patients with pelvic floor dysfunctions from professional and personal experiences. I have even reached out to many programs but there have been no perfect solutions for FNPs because they are geared towards PTs. But YOU are my solution. I am the only NP in my practice and we only have one pelvic floor PT in our county and they do not do internal exams. I am helping my rural and underserved community!"
Casse Romano, WHNP
"Thank you so much for all of the knowledge and clinical guidance from the Institute for Pelvic Health in their amazing program. "Learning this has 100% impacted my clinical practice - such a sigh of relief for a patient to finally have an alternative solution than another negative culture and being sent home". These assessment and patient counseling tools will without a doubt have a lasting impression on myself and my patients for years to come. I just took a new job working with patients with recurrent vaginal infections and pelvic floor dysfunction. I honestly would not have ever considered this if it weren’t for all the great information I learned in Beyond the Kegel."
