Free Online - Self Paced Course
Sacral Flexion
Pattern
A holistic approach to the root cause
of a postpartum client’s pain and dysfunction.
The Sacral Flexion Pattern complimentary online course will share how to identify the signs and symptoms of this pattern so you can successfully manually and passively treat your clients.
The pelvis must go into sacral flexion for a baby to be born vaginally. Sometimes the pelvis gets stuck in this position and doesn’t return to its normal state. Knowing the key indicators to assess for this pattern and how to treat will help your clients regain pain-free function and greater strength.
Whether you are new to pelvic health or a seasoned physical therapist, this course will dramatically change how you use the signs and symptoms of postpartum clients – so you can get to the root cause of their pain, discomfort, and dysfunctions after childbirth.

Your Instructor – Lynn Schulte, PT
Lynn Schulte has been a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist for over 30 years and is the principal instructor/founder at the Institute for Birth Healing. She has been helping moms heal from all types of issues women experience after birth and is now teaching courses to physical therapists to share her expertise. After working with thousands of women, she discovered something they all had in common; the “Open Birthing Pattern.” The Open Birthing Pattern results from the pelvic bones and muscles not returning to normal positioning, mobility, and function after birth, creating pain, discomfort, and dysfunction. All of our courses focus on a holistic approach, assessments, and treatment techniques to relieve pain and discomfort and restore function.
