Description

This is a poster presentation on the workshop development, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: A Prenatal Approach Through an Occupational Therapy Lens. Women who experience pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) often do not understand that what they are experiencing can be managed through rehabilitation (Chen et al., 2019). This capstone project aimed to educate women about the pelvic floor and pelvic floor dysfunction as a proactive approach to rehabilitation. Additionally, the project provides educational information on pregnancy and birthing positions.
