Pelvic PT Essentials: Building Clinical Confidence from the Ground Up
We know there's more to pelvic health than just learning techniques and exercises. The key to true confidence is having a clear framework for evaluating, understanding, and treating each patient as an individual.
This course is designed to help you ‘Find the Why’ and become more intentional and effective with your treatment plans.
01
Build Your Clinical Ethos
Learn to develop your Clinical Ethos and form hypotheses that can be tested with patients, allowing you to create tailored, effective treatment plans.
03
The 'Last 5' and 'Last 10'
Improve clinical buy-in by improving your patient communication. Stop the 'self-discharges' and people dropping off your schedule.
02
Streamline Your Eval
Stop feeling rushed through your evaluations! Decide what to prioritize and where you need to go for that specific patient
04
Confidence in Complex Cases
Feel equipped to treat even the most challenging patients with a step-by-step approach.
I'm Nicole Cozean - I've been where you are!
Like so many of us, I took a handful of beginner courses and was thrown into treating pelvic health.
I often felt overwhelmed. Not sure of what tools to use. Rushing through evaluations and not even sure what I was looking for.
Eventually I had some major breakthroughs - thinking about my 'Clinical Ethos', organizing my evaluations, doing the 'Last 5' and 'Last 10' with patients to improve our communication.
Things slowed down and I started feeling confident with even the most complex patients who were travelling from around the world to see me.
That’s why I created Pelvic PT Essentials—to share the mindset, framework, and structure that transformed my clinical practice.
This course isn’t about learning more techniques. It’s about learning how to use what you already know—better. To feel more confident. To get better outcomes. To love what you do again.
I can’t wait for you to join us inside the Essentials.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the course administered?
The entire course is done online and at your own pace. You have lifetime access to the material to review and reference as well! You can watch on either the computer or phone.
You can also download handouts and other resources to help get the most out of the course!
How much experience do I need to take the course?
You don't need a certain amount of experience to get the most out of this course - we've had participants ranging from just a few months in pelvic health to participants with 10+ years and a WCS.
Remember, you'll also have lifetime access to the content, so if you want to go back and revisit it later, you always can!
Why is the course online instead of in-person?
We've found online courses significantly increase the accessibility of our courses. They allow you to go at your own pace and come back to the material when you'd like to refer to it. We can use both models and live volunteers for demonstrations for the hands-on components and actually show what we're working on (more than we could in-person).
Presenting the course online also makes it more financially accessible; with the cost for the course, hosting, travel and hotel this same material would likely cost more than $3,000 to take in-person!
Are Rising courses eligible for continuing education credit?
Yes, our courses are eligible for CEU credits! You'll get a Certificate of Completion for 12 contact hours upon completion of the course.
It's up to each individual to submit for CEU’s within their respective state. All State Licensure Boards are listed on the FSBPT: The Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy website where you can find their CEU requirements.
There is also no obligation for you to submit for CEUs if you choose not to. Either way, you will receive a Certificate of Completion with the contact hours and are welcome to submit it for consideration yourself!
Are there handouts and slides?
Yes! All Rising courses have downloads and handouts to supplement the material and provide resources for you to be able to immediately apply your new knowledge.
Are all courses created and taught by Nicole?
Yes, all Rising courses are specifically created by Nicole to address major needs in the field. It's the material and framework she's taught to her own staff at PelvicSanity and to thousands of pelvic health practitioners (online and in person).
Do I get a receipt and Certificate of Completion?
Yes! You'll immediately be emailed a receipt following your purchase (so check your email!).
After completing the course and filling out the Course Survey you'll receive your Certificate of Completion with the number of contact hours of the course. These generally are emailed out about two weeks after we receive your Course Survey.
