| The Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology Physiotherapy at SGT University is devoted to the advancement of women’s health through holistic physiotherapeutic care, education, and research. The department empowers students with in-depth knowledge and clinical competence in managing physical and functional health challenges specific to women. A strong focus is placed on simulation-based learning, with birthing mannequins, pelvic floor rehabilitation simulators, and postpartum assessment models used to replicate real-life clinical encounters. Our students are exposed to blended pedagogies—including role-play, community immersion, reflective journals, and interdisciplinary case conferences—that encourage deep, reflective, and active learning beyond traditional lectures. The curriculum equips students to manage a wide range of conditions, including prenatal discomforts, labour-related musculoskeletal issues, postnatal diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, and post-surgical rehabilitation after gynaecological procedures. Clinical training is provided in collaboration with the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at SGT Hospital, where students gain hands-on exposure to antenatal and postnatal wards, labour rooms, and women’s health OPDs. Outreach initiatives further enhance student learning by engaging in rural maternal health programs and women’s wellness camps. |
