This workshop is for physios, RN's or GP's who work in the area of retraining the muscles of the pelvic floor to achieve continence. There will also be some emphasis on pre- and post prostatectomy exercises.
Attendance is available for both male and female health professionals.

Pauline will be launching a new dvd on pelvic floor exercises for men.
This dvd has been sponsored by the Prostate Cancer Foundation and will be given free to workshop participants.
Note: The workshops are held using the facilities of Newcastle University.
They are organised by Chiarelli HealthCare and not an initiative of Newcastle University.
