The clinical skill sets and techniques instructed in PORi are based on integrated treatment models designed to include Myofascial Trigger Point Release, Joint Mobilization, Neural Mobilization, Visceral Mobilization Lymphatic Manual Drainage, Pain Mitigation, Bowel and Bladder Functional Restoration and Functional Movement Restoration.  This course does not include internal (vaginal/rectal) techniques as those are reserved for an advanced pelvic floor dysfunction course.

These techniques are placed in the context of understanding the physiological and anatomical effects of cancer treatments including specific surgical interventions, chemotherapy regimens, radiation therapy, and adjuvant medications. Careful study is made of the impact of cancer treatment on the Epidermal, Dermal, Myofascial, Skeletal, Lymphatic, Vascular, Neural, and Urogenital Systems and the treatment protocols instructed by PORi relate to the optimal resolution of signs and symptoms within these body systems.

All of the clinical skill sets and techniques instructed within the PORi Oncology Rehabilitation Curriculum are derived from evidence-based clinical applications within the scope of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy practice.  One of the more defining elements of PORi, presented alongside PT/OT evidence-based clinical application, is the necessary physiological and anatomical knowledge unique to the oncology patient population, which is required by qualified practitioners to accurately and safely implement oncology-specific treatment plans and realistic goal-based outcomes for this patient population.​

Live and/or Video Patient Presentations
Running 30 hrs, the PORi Pelvic Cancer & Lower Extremity Rehabilitation continuing education course includes patient case presentations of patients who have undergone a variety of treatments for pelvic cancer and present with a variety of conditions and side-effects relating to their cancer treatments. For virtual courses, patient presentations will run from between 60 minutes and 90 minutes via pre-recorded videos of patient treatments, technique demonstrations and patient interviews. In live courses or live lab supplementary courses, a patient case presentation can run as long as 3 hours and participants are given the opportunity, with guided supervision from the instructor, to perform subjective and objective evaluations on these patients, as well as practice the appropriate techniques (presented in the course) on the patients during these lab sessions.
