Frequently asked questions

Do you work alongside other specialists?

Yes. Pelvic pain often benefits from multidisciplinary care and a full team approach. Where appropriate, I can liaise with pain specialists, psychologists, Urogynaecologists, movement experts and whoever else might be in your pain tribe to ensure coordinated management.

Is pelvic pain ‘in my head’?

No. Persistent pelvic pain involves genuine changes in muscle tone, nerve sensitivity and pain processing. Understanding how pain works is part of treatment - but your symptoms are real, valid and treatable.
