Bridging the Gap: High Intensity Perinatal Athletics Practicum Comes to Somerset, NJ

Pelvic rehabilitation professionals know that working with athletes requires a unique lens—and when your client is both an athlete and navigating the perinatal period, the clinical complexity deepens.

That’s why Herman & Wallace is excited to announce the High Intensity Perinatal Athletics Practicum, coming to Somerset, NJ on September 27–28, 2025. This two-day course is built for pelvic rehab practitioners who want to elevate their skills in evaluating and treating pregnant and postpartum individuals engaging in high-intensity interval training (HIIT), including activities like weightlifting, gymnastics, plyometrics, and running.

The practicum blends pre-course videos, targeted in-person lectures, and hands-on movement labs. You'll explore:

• Biomechanics and breathing strategies tailored for the perinatal athlete
• Technique review and movement modifications to support performance and healing
• Practical tools for managing pelvic symptoms in high-level exercisers
• Manual therapy techniques specific to this population

Participants should come prepared to move—exercise attire is encouraged for active lab sessions that put knowledge into motion.

Whether you're treating CrossFit athletes, recreational runners, or competitive lifters, this course will give you the confidence to work safely and effectively with perinatal clients committed to staying active.

Prerequisite: Completion of Pelvic Function Level 1 through Herman & Wallace or Pelvic PT 1 through the APTA.
