What Causes Dyspareunia?

Pelvic Pain

Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) often affects younger men (median age of 43) and is most often located at the perineal and genital regions but can manifest to other areas such as the lower abdomen, penis, scrotum, rectum, and lower back. The pain can initially come on suddenly with a duration that must be present for at least three of the last six months but can be characterised by continual remissions and relapses.

The pain often causes difficulties with bladder, bowel and sexual function. Pain on ejaculation is common and it can be difficult to urinate.

 Most men with CPP will have their prostates ruled out as the cause of their pain. There is a growing body of research that shows a clear link between tension in the pelvic floor muscles causing pelvic pain.  Normalising this pelvic muscle tension can have a huge impact on symptoms and your quality of life.

Pelvic Health Physio

Therapy with biofeedback is a useful tool to help you avoid unnecessary increase in resting muscle tone. Also therapy that aims to reduce the tone of connective tissue and restore the mobility of muscle facia has been shown to decrease symptoms scores.

PelviPower

PelviPower – Treatment Option Blurb

PelviPower Magnetic Field Therapy (MFT) uses repetitive magnetic impulses to trigger your pelvic floor muscles and associated nerves.   Research on this type of stimulus not only shows a reduction in pain but a normalisation of muscle tone.   There is also a large body of evidence that pulsed magnetic energy through tissue increases circulation and perfusion which creates a better environment for healing and resolution.

There is no need to undress for this treatment.

What Are the Advantages of Treatment?

Acupuncture

Acupuncture stimulates the nervous system which encourages your body to control unnecessary pain and reduce excess tone and spasm.

Research has shown that CPP patients treated with weekly sessions of acupuncture for 6 weeks showed more than 50% decrease in their pain scores compared to baseline.
