Advanced Postpartum Care:
The Chiropractic Clinical Guide
A comprehensive video course packed with information,
clinical pearls, and skills you can implement immediately
Ready to become a trusted postpartum chiropractic expert?
- Are you passionate about women’s health and want to serve more postpartum patients?
- Do you want to gain confidence in your postpartum assessment and treatment skills?
- Do your pregnant patients disappear after giving birth, or don’t follow your postpartum treatment recommendations?
- Are you overwhelmed by the conflicting or limited chiropractic-specific information online about common postpartum symptoms and conditions?
You don’t need a diplomate or years of prior experience.
Patients want a compassionate chiropractor who:
- Acknowledges their symptoms (like urinary incontinence, painful intercourse, persistent pelvic pain, and difficulty returning to physical activity) instead of dismissing them as “normal.”
- Knows how to assess and treat common postpartum conditions (like pelvic floor dysfunction, pelvic pain, neck and back pain, diastasis recti, and painful Cesarean and vulvar scarring) so they can feel better
- Knows when to refer or co-manage with other health professionals
- Is known in their community as a postpartum chiropractic expert
Advanced Postpartum Care: The Chiropractic Clinical Guide is a comprehensive video course created for busy chiropractors by an expert in postpartum chiropractic care.
Gaia Health Academy is proud to be a PACE Continuing Education Provider, and if your state has an active PACE program, you can earn 19 CEUs for completing this course!

Hi! I’m Dr. Nichelle Gurule.
People often use the words “motivated” and “passionate” to describe me, which couldn’t be more accurate. I’m most passionate about my role as a mother and wife and my work in the women’s and children’s health world.
My family loves to be active, and you can find us at the gym (or in our garage gym) on bike rides, hikes, neighborhood walks, or paddleboarding. We love the outdoors and are so grateful to live in Colorado, where the weather and scenery are so beautiful.
Out of my love for women’s and children’s health and thirst for knowledge during my own postpartum recovery, I was inspired to found Gaia Health Academy with my husband, Dr. Antonio Gurule.
Gaia’s first course, Advanced Postpartum Care: The Chiropractic Clinical Guide, is the culmination of clinical application and experience, coaching, guidance from global leaders, research, and the living, breathing practice of my own body as a woman and clinician.
Enroll in Advanced Postpartum Care: The Chiropractic Clinical Guide to learn how to
- Assess, treat, and guide women confidently and holistically throughout their postpartum recovery to improve treatment outcomes.
- Improve care continuity from pregnancy to postpartum and compliance with treatment recommendations.
- Communicate and co-manage care with OBGYNs, midwives, doulas, and PCPs.
- Bridge referral sources and connections to serve more women and their families to make a bigger impact and become the go-to postpartum chiropractor in your community.

What Our Students Are Saying
Dr. Maggie Quigley
This course is a MUST for chiropractors (and students) who serve women! I am much more confident in not only the anatomical and physiological changes associated with the postpartum period but also in my ability to deliver high-quality chiropractic care and rehabilitation for my postpartum patients. We emphasize prenatal chiropractic so much it’s finally time we raise the standard for postpartum care as well!
Dr. Amanda Brown
After taking Dr. Nichelle's course, I feel 100% more confident in treating the postpartum woman. I will use this knowledge every day in practice, and I think every clinician treating the postpartum population should take it! All postpartum women will be better served because of it!
Dr. Vanessa Nordin
I took so many gems away from every module, and she really took the time to include things that most courses don't, such as first-visit discussions, common and rare conditions, rules of rehab, marketing materials, etc. I immediately began implementing what I learned and it's no surprise I started getting immediate results from my happy patients. Take this course; it's what you missed out on in school and so much more!

What our students are saying
Dr. Christeen Perkins
As a recent graduate, I cannot express how grateful I am for this course! I knew while in chiropractic school I wanted to specialize in postpartum care but was having a hard time finding resources to increase my education in this area. That all changed when I found Dr. Nichelle’s postpartum course! This class was exactly what I was looking for! I was able to start applying what I was learning to my patients from the very first module to the last. I have already seen improvements in patient outcomes and patient satisfaction. I highly recommend this course to anyone who will be treating postpartum mommas. Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr. Nichelle for creating this course, it is going to benefit so many women!
Dr. Jacobe Holman
I’ll start by simply stating that I LOVED this course. This course provided immediate, easily implementable information. Dr. Nichelle's video demonstrations were amazing and helped to reinforce all of the content. I really appreciate that there wasn’t a “cookie cutter” approach given, but rather a framework that allows you to develop and deliver a system that works for you and your patients. No doubt, this class has helped me to step up my game for the mamas we care for – they deserve no less
Dr. Justine Scheuher
This course will empower you with information, boost your clinical confidence, and most importantly, change lives. Any clinician serving the female population, especially pregnant and postpartum mommas, NEEDS to take this course. It’s packed with information that is applicable immediately (seriously, the lectures paired with the videos make the information, examinations, and treatments so easy to apply!). Utilizing the abdominal massage technique on my rib pain mommas was a game changer… and not to mention a patient generator. By helping this particular mother, she referred SIX of her pregnant, postpartum, and non-pregnant friends. I can't recommend this course enough.
