Featured reviews
Great course! It gave me a better understanding when having conversations with patients to address male pelvic health issues and the treatment options available. I have a better understanding of what might be more appropriate for different problems of male pelvic health and also the importance of the role effective physiotherapy can have in helping to improve the quality of the lives of these patients and improving their symptoms.
