Pelvic Pain and Sexual Dysfunction

Pelvic pain is your body asking for support—not something you have to push through

Pelvic Pain Is Complex—and Real

Pelvic pain can show up as burning, aching, sharp pain, or pressure. It may appear during intimacy, movement, or daily activities. Many women carry this silently, unsure where to turn for help.

Pelvic floor physical therapy provides a compassionate, evidence-based approach to understanding and easing these symptoms.

Why Pelvic Pain Happens

Pain often stems from muscular tension, nerve irritation, scar tissue, inflammation, past trauma, or movement patterns affecting the hips and spine. The pelvic floor may become guarded or “overactive,” making relaxation difficult.

Releasing Tension and Restoring Comfort

Therapy focuses on improving mobility, reducing tension, calming the nervous system, and restoring trust in movement. Breathwork, manual therapy, and gentle exercises help reduce sensitivity and rebuild ease.

How Therapy Helps

Care may involve internal and external manual therapy, myofascial release, breath and relaxation work, movement retraining, and gradual reintroduction to pain-free activity or intimacy.
