We believe that education is the foundation of pelvic rehab.
We’ve all been there...fresh from our urogenital rehabilitation coursework, equipped with a wealth of clinical knowledge and ready to make a difference. But soon, we realize this challenge - explaining complex pelvic health concepts to patients isn't easy and it takes time to find our flow!
As a continuing education instructor, I want you to feel confident more quickly treating urogenital conditions which is why I created The Bladder Bundle. These handouts bridge communication between providers and patients who are eager to achieve success with conservative treatment.
Imagine a day of patient care where you no longer find yourself repeating explanations session after session, and patients aren’t just passive recipients of care but active participants. Studies reveal that only 30% of people are auditory learners and the majority comprehend at a 4th-grade level. This means that a significant portion of your patients could be left confused and overwhelmed.
The Bladder Bundle simplifies complex pelvic health concepts. These handouts are instrumental in improving communication and enhancing patient retention. They empower your patients, giving them clarity on the 'why' behind their symptoms and the 'how' of home programs which are crucial for achieving rehab goals.
The research shows that pelvic rehab should be the first line of treatment for many bladder issues, but often that isn't the standard of care today. We need more pelvic health providers who actually get the results leading to more buy-in from physicians and the public. The Bladder Bundle seeks to fill the void of inadequate patient education resources, ensuring everyone involved feels supported to achieve the best possible rehab outcomes.
Remember, your community depends on your pelvic health services. The Bladder Bundle is here to streamline your success, helping you feel more confident in patient care, leading teams, and growing your pelvic health practice!
Here’s to making a difference, one patient at a time.

"The Bladder Book is a must have for pelvic health practitioners. Why reinvent the wheel when you can have your bladder educational materials all in one place? Susannah translates complex medical explanations into fun, easy to understand language that patients can immediately grasp. No more stick figure drawings or shuffling through files, this book will save you time and money in the clinic. It’s worth the investment!"

Example of an average pelvic health therapist:
10 x 34 = 340
Hours per handout x the # of handouts in The Bladder Bundle
(Yes, it took me about 2.5 months to write The Bladder Bundle!)
340 x $50 = $17,000!?! 😲
Figuring $50 is the average pay/hour of a rehab provider.
$125 / 34 = $3.67 per handout
Cents on the dollar considering the expertise and monumental hours it took to research, write, design & make available for you. ;)
Use these handouts for the LIFE of your practice!

These handouts were created for you to use in direct patient care to streamline education, enhance retention of information, patient compliance, and positive outcomes! You may also use them for small in-person community education events and marketing to local practitioners (if you do this, I recommend purchasing the personalized version of bundles). You may NOT use them for the development of online learning programs, as an adjunct to course curriculums, or upload them to shared electronic medical records within a multi-clinic or hospital setting. These handouts are copyrighted by the U.S. Library of Congress. You must keep the copyright in place on all handouts and they may not be modified.
Personalizing your handouts with clinic information is a fantastic marketing approach for your rehab services as they can be shared with medical providers and friends, encouraging potential referrals! Pelvic Health Resources will add your logo and clinic information to the bottom of every handout; this requires about 2 hours to customize each handout and download them individually to a zip file that we send you. Expect to receive your custom handouts within 5-7 business days from your request; while we are customizing your handouts, you still have access to the non-personalized PDF version available in your Pelvic Health Resources course portal. The cost of the service to personalize each handout for you is $50 for the 2 hour time investment to complete.
Yes! Each bundle comes with individual user rights. If you add a pelvic health practitioner, you can purchase an additional user agreement for each clinician as your clinic grows. If that clinician leaves your practice, your new hire replacement may use the handouts in place of that provider. Please come back to Pelvic Health Resources and purchase an additional user agreement for each new hire; this is an honor system, but we do keep records of user agreements. Thank you for supporting this intensive handout library project!
Digital handouts are the most flexible; you can upload them to a patient's portal, email them to patients, or print an original copy that you can photocopy. Digital handouts are sent to your inbox immediately after purchase so you don't have to pay for shipping! You are more at risk of losing a print copy, however, because printing is performed by an outside service we are unable to keep a record of your purchase; this means if you lose your print version, we will not be able to replace your print bundle.
No, but please tell them about Pelvic Health Resources! I know it may be tempting to share these files with a colleague to use, however, please do not. Creating these handouts is an intense process that requires outlining, research, writing, designing, purchasing images, editing, publishing & updating! And that doesn't even include the costs to make these available to you. You are literally paying cents on the dollar when you purchase these handouts! The small investment purchasing bundles backs my ability to create more handouts and resources for your practice! So, please support this handout initiative and the mission of Pelvic Health Resources to help providers like you achieve better patient outcomes and grow your practice! THANK YOU!
