PRACTITIONER FUNDAMENTALS
It's not just about teaching you what to think. But guiding you in understanding how to think.
That's what brings lasting confidence.
There's huge gaps in the way we're educated about women's health. It's time to fix that.
So many women are suffering with dysfunction...
From adolescence through to post menopause, Allied Health Practitioners care for women of all ages on a daily basis. Yet so many women are suffering with dysfunction that feels like they have to put up with.
How do you care for a patient that has been told that she's 'normal' but you know is still suffering? These patients often complain of irregular, painful, heavy periods. Fatigue, insomnia, weight gain, fluid retention, gut upsets. The list goes on.
Allied Health Practitioners of all kinds are well equipped in examining patients, however often lack the integration of the entire body with the correct lifestyle and supplementation advice to either treat or co-treat with medicine.
When you understand how the female body works, helping your patients becomes a lot easier.

Dr Anthea
B.HSci.B.App.Sci (Chiro). MWomHMed.MRMed
After finishing my Chiropractic degree and working with patients, I realised quickly that I didn't get taught enough about the female body to deeply understand it and feel confident in how to care for my patients who were suffering with seemingly 'random' symptoms.
I didn't know how to connect all the systems of female physiology and also feel confident that I wasn't missing any significant pathology. I wanted to harness the confidence to not only differentially diagnose my patients but I also wanted to understand how I could manage them better.
So I went on to study a double Masters in Women's Health Medicine and Reproductive Medicine. This gave me the confidence to differentially diagnose and care for my female patients in the current health system. What i didn't realise is that it would also highlight the huge gaping hole that women kept getting lost in. The one where their symptoms were disregarded or treated as 'normal' when there was nothing found on testing.
So I created this program for two reasons:
1. To give Allied Health Practitioners the grounded confidence to easily manage their female patients across their health spectrum.
2. To close the healthcare gap that millions of women keep falling through because their concerns aren't validated until often it seems 'too late'.
This course is a culmination of both my medical and functional training. It's the launch pad every Allied Health Practitioner needs if they are treating women.
