Health Organization for Pudendal Education

Thanks for any responses I can get. I wanted to further my education and become a chiropractor. I also want to help treat other people that have pelvic pain and pudendal issues. So then I am leaning towards a degree in Physical Therapy. There is very limited help in Oregon, so I know I can help locally.

Anyone hear of chiropractors helping with pudendal and pelvic issues besides pelvic and spinal joint manipulations, such as getting additional training directed at pelvic issues? Or is the only way to be of real help to our community to become a medical doctor or physical therapist?

Thanks for any input or suggestions. I guess I could become a DC and MPT, but that is a long time of schooling.

Hi Bradley,

It's great to hear of someone who wants to treat PNE! Have you read about Dr. Kirk Andrew, a chiro who treats people with PNE using electroshock wave therapy? You would probably have to learn it from him and his assistant though and they are in Canada.

Best,

Violet

Thanks for the reply. I have decided to pursue Chiro first, then Physical Therapy (DPT). I also need to get my bachelors first, so may go with Human Physiology. Not sure.

Well done Bradley,
It will be interesting to see how much, if at all, PN is mentioned on the course. Good luck with it
Take care,
Helen
