Trusted Info & Tools for your IC Journey
There's so much misinformation on IC (often even from medical practitioners) it leaves many patients confused, frustrated or hopeless. You leave a doctor's appointment more confused than when you arrived. And they only spend 15 minutes (if that) with you!
The IC Roadmap online course is 6+ hours of practical, positive and expert information on IC, giving you concrete steps to take to find relief.
The Details
We've worked with thousands of IC patients from Southern California and around the world. For years we've wanted to create a course that gives the same information we provide our patients to those beyond our walls - a Roadmap to Healing.
This online course allows you to go at your own pace through the material, and you'll have lifetime access to go back to the most important sections for you. It includes:
✔️ An overview of the condition and treatment options
✔️ Busting the 8 IC Myths that keep patients from getting better
✔️ Options for medical procedures and medications
✔️ The Truth about the "IC Diet" and how to eliminate your trigger foods
✔️ How advances in pain science can help us better understand - and treat - IC pain and symptoms
✔️ The Pelvic Floor Connection and how Pelvic PT helps patients
✔️ Self-Care Practices for IC
"Much more confident in my next steps....so valuable!"
"I feel so much more confident after taking this course - I know I'll be returning to this information again and again....Nicole is amazing!"
"I learned more from this course than I had in years of doctor visits and online groups. I feel so much more confidence now, like I have a plan going forward!"
YOUR IC JOURNEY
Many with IC symptoms suffer for years prior to getting a diagnosis and still don't have a clear plan to actually find lasting relief!
PHANTOM UTIs
All my providers did was try multiple rounds of antibiotics, but I still have these symptoms
SHORT APPOINTMENTS
Only spending 10 minutes with a doctor who doesn't really understand IC at all
WASTED TIME
Told to try a medication and 'just wait a while', even though I'm in such pain
THE 'IC DIET'
All I was told about was the 'IC Diet', and told I would just have to live with my symptoms
DISMISSED
Made to feel it's "all in your head" or "nothing is wrong" by your practitioners
AFRAID IT'S FOREVER
I'm afraid no one really understands this and I'll have to live with these IC symptoms forever
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone! IC is a challenging diagnosis, but thousands of patients live healthy, pain-free lives....and so can you!
