PART 2 | Urogenital Manipulations for Female and Male Pelvic Disorders met Olivier Bazin DO

This course resumes and perpetuates all aspects of urogenital manipulations initiated and developed by Jean-Pierre Barral for 40 years.
The program is largely based on the book, of which Olivier Bazin is co-author, entitled “Visceral Manipulations for Female Pelvic Disorders” (Barral Productions-2020).

Nowadays more and more often, the reason for consultation is immediately related to the pelvic sphere, such as micturition disorders, menstrual pain, pudendal neuralgia or fertility disorders. Patients know that osteopathy is successful for these major disorders, and they are looking for therapists who are able to help them.

This course is intended for osteopaths who want to improve their initial training, but also for any experienced therapists wishing to update their skills for the management of functional disorders related to the genitourinary sphere.

The urogenital sphere is complex, it requires great finesse in palpation and requires solid anatomical knowledge. It is mostly the clinical aspect and the practice that will be developed, in order to establish a manual diagnosis based on palpation, listening and clinical symptoms, leading to a treatment protocol.
