Manual Therapy Treatment of the Genitourinary System

Overview

Genitourinary disorders can be non-musculoskeletal reasons why people have pain, systemic inflammation, and difficulty performing their desired activities. This class will examine how proper motion of the musculoskeletal system integrates with the genitourinary structures and how disorders of either can be problematic.

Thorough evaluation and treatment of relevant musculoskeletal structures, genitourinary viscera, and the lymphatic and autonomic nervous systems will be demonstrated and practiced.
