    This is an advanced comprehensive course for pediatric therapists specializing in bowel and bladder disorders, offering a wealth of specialized knowledge and practical tools. By focusing on deepening the understanding of key areas like the diaphragm, ribcage, core function, pressure system management, and gut-brain interactions, therapists are empowered to tackle even the most challenging cases.

    For those already familiar with pediatric pelvic floor therapy, this course offers next-level techniques, including a more in-depth approach to treating conditions like Hirschsprung’s disease, anorectal malformations, and chronic constipation and encopresis. The emphasis on viewing the patient holistically—considering posture, movement patterns, the nervous system, and the impact of specific disorders—underscores the importance of integrating the entire body into treatment plans.

    The resources and tools mentioned (cupping sets, anorectal balloon training, etc.) reflect the hands-on nature of the course and its aim to provide therapists with practical, actionable techniques they can immediately apply. The inclusion of advanced techniques like full-body movement analysis and updated approaches to DRA (Diastasis Recti Abdominis) management also means participants will walk away with a more robust skill set, tailored to even the most complex pediatric cases.

    The course structure, with pre-course video lectures on Teachable and a live component, makes the learning process flexible while ensuring that participants are well-prepared. The prerequisites ensure that attendees have a strong foundation, making this Level 2 course truly advanced, helping seasoned professionals expand their expertise further.

    Participants have an incredible opportunity to gain the confidence and tools necessary to treat pediatric patients with bowel or bladder dysfunction more effectively, and be empowered and ready to tackle any case.

    Prerequisites
    Pediatrics Level 1 - Treatment of Bowel and Bladder Disorders must be completed before taking this course. Participants should also have a basic knowledge of biofeedback and pelvic floor muscle anatomy.

    Attending a remote course is easy and safe, and you can do it entirely from the security and comfort of your own home or clinic without having to find a lab partner.

     

    Important thing to note:

    - Our policy for applying for continuing education credit for remote courses differs from that of our in-person and satellite lab courses. Read the specific language of the policy here. Depending on the state in which you practice, you may need to submit your own application to your state board or approving body should you wish that it be approved for continuing education credit in your state.

    - To attend a remote Herman & Wallace course, registrants will need Zoom video conferencing software. This is a requirement. One can create an account and download the software to their computer at https://zoom.us/

    - We use the Pacific Time Zone for all of our remote course start and end times (this is not the case for in-person and satellite lab locations). Please make a note of this and set your calendar accordingly.

    - A Zoom account is free to create. Before the meeting, we recommend having a practice Zoom session with a friend or colleague so you can test your microphone, video, and internet connection. You can participate in any remote course from the comfort of your home, but will need a stable internet connection in order to participate. We recommend downloading the software and practicing a call with a friend or colleague prior to your course with us. Zoom also offers video tutorials on their website at https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206618765-Zoom-Video-Tutorials.

    This course provides a crucial and comprehensive framework for addressing pediatric pelvic floor dysfunction, focusing on issues like incontinence, dysfunctional voiding, and constipation. These conditions not only affect the physical health of children but also their emotional well-being and the dynamics within their families. By integrating both medical and therapeutic approaches, this course equips therapists with the tools to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these children.

    Highlighting key statistics and guidelines from the International Children’s Continence Society (ICCS), the course acknowledges the importance of achieving bladder control by age 5 for typically developing children, while also recognizing the psychological impact on children and families when this milestone is not met. The emotional toll, including frustration, anxiety, and the potential for psychological behaviors, emphasizes the urgency for specialized pediatric intervention.

    The course addresses the most common pelvic floor dysfunctions seen in children, such as dysfunctional elimination syndrome, withholding, urinary tract infections (UTIs), bedwetting, and the often-overlooked role of constipation in contributing to urinary leakage and urgency. With constipation alone accounting for nearly 5% of pediatric office visits, the need for trained specialists in this field is significant.

    What makes this course particularly invaluable is its holistic and practical approach. Participants will gain knowledge of the normal development of voiding reflexes and urinary control, along with common causes of incontinence in pediatric patients. The focus on hands-on evaluation and treatment methods—such as surface electromyography (SEMG) biofeedback, rehabilitative ultrasound imaging, and external manual techniques—ensures that therapists can effectively assess and address these complex conditions.

    The inclusion of case studies provides real-world applications, helping participants understand the progression of treatments and the path from diagnosis to discharge. The additional focus on pediatric play, trauma-informed care, and language tailored for working with neurodivergent patients adds another layer of relevance, particularly for therapists working with children who have special needs, sensory processing differences, or musculoskeletal asymmetries.

    By taking a comprehensive and child-centered approach, this course not only prepares participants to address bladder and bowel dysfunction but also to contribute to the long-term health and quality of life for their pediatric patients, potentially preventing these issues from persisting into adulthood.

    Prerequisites
    None. This is a beginner-level course.

The focus on hands-on evaluation and treatment methods—such as surface electromyography (SEMG) biofeedback, rehabilitative ultrasound imaging, and external manual techniques—ensures that therapists can effectively assess and address these complex conditions.

    The inclusion of case studies provides real-world applications, helping participants understand the progression of treatments and the path from diagnosis to discharge. The additional focus on pediatric play, trauma-informed care, and language tailored for working with neurodivergent patients adds another layer of relevance, particularly for therapists working with children who have special needs, sensory processing differences, or musculoskeletal asymmetries.

    By taking a comprehensive and child-centered approach, this course not only prepares participants to address bladder and bowel dysfunction but also to contribute to the long-term health and quality of life for their pediatric patients, potentially preventing these issues from persisting into adulthood.

    Prerequisites
    None. This is a beginner-level course.

    This course provides a crucial and comprehensive framework for addressing pediatric pelvic floor dysfunction, focusing on issues like incontinence, dysfunctional voiding, and constipation. These conditions not only affect the physical health of children but also their emotional well-being and the dynamics within their families. By integrating both medical and therapeutic approaches, this course equips therapists with the tools to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these children.

    Highlighting key statistics and guidelines from the International Children’s Continence Society (ICCS), the course acknowledges the importance of achieving bladder control by age 5 for typically developing children, while also recognizing the psychological impact on children and families when this milestone is not met. The emotional toll, including frustration, anxiety, and the potential for psychological behaviors, emphasizes the urgency for specialized pediatric intervention.

    The course addresses the most common pelvic floor dysfunctions seen in children, such as dysfunctional elimination syndrome, withholding, urinary tract infections (UTIs), bedwetting, and the often-overlooked role of constipation in contributing to urinary leakage and urgency. With constipation alone accounting for nearly 5% of pediatric office visits, the need for trained specialists in this field is significant.

    What makes this course particularly invaluable is its holistic and practical approach. Participants will gain knowledge of the normal development of voiding reflexes and urinary control, along with common causes of incontinence in pediatric patients. The focus on hands-on evaluation and treatment methods—such as surface electromyography (SEMG) biofeedback, rehabilitative ultrasound imaging, and external manual techniques—ensures that therapists can effectively assess and address these complex conditions.

    The inclusion of case studies provides real-world applications, helping participants understand the progression of treatments and the path from diagnosis to discharge. The additional focus on pediatric play, trauma-informed care, and language tailored for working with neurodivergent patients adds another layer of relevance, particularly for therapists working with children who have special needs, sensory processing differences, or musculoskeletal asymmetries.

    - A Zoom account is free to create. Before the meeting, we recommend having a practice Zoom session with a friend or colleague so you can test your microphone, video, and internet connection. You can participate in any remote course from the comfort of your home, but will need a stable internet connection in order to participate. We recommend downloading the software and practicing a call with a friend or colleague prior to your course with us. Zoom also offers video tutorials on their website at https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206618765-Zoom-Video-Tutorials.

This discount cannot be used in combination with any other discounts.
