About
PGP is defined as pain in the pelvic region. This pain is often located at the front (pubic symphysis) or back (sacroiliac joints) of the pelvis, which A LOT of people refer to this as hip or low back pain. So, Let’s Stop Saying the Pelvis is Unstable and Weak The pelvis is strong and stable. There’s a lot of misinformation saying otherwise. That is why I have put this training together. As a yoga teacher who specializes in pelvic health and also as someone who has lived with pelvic girdle pain for over 20 years I have learned a lot along the way. The most common complaint that yoga students talk with me about is ‘hip’ or low back pain. We need to really understand the newest research on PGP and pain science to help our yoga students / clients. The language and cues we use matter just as much as the pose or breath practice we share. What You'll Learn In This Training In this training, you will learn the cues, language, poses, breath practices and information needed to help any yoga student who is dealing with pelvic girdle pain. We will also cover referrals (shout out to our pelvic health PTs) and what is (and is not) in our scope of practice as yoga teachers. Yes, it’s important to know the difference between sciatic pain and sacroiliac joint pain even though as yoga teachers we don’t diagnose or treat these common issues. AND at the end of this training, you will walk away with a solid plan for how to work with your yoga students no matter what pelvic girdle pain they are experiencing.
