Pelvic Pain: More Than Just Discomfort
Pelvic pain can be life-altering, affecting everything from daily activities to emotional well-being. For years, many women have been told that their pain has no identifiable cause. However, advancements in medical science, particularly in the field of Neuropelveology, have transformed how we diagnose and treat pelvic pain.
What is Neuropelveology?
Neuropelveology is a revolutionary approach that focuses on the nerves of the pelvis. Developed by Prof. Mark Possover, this field provides precise diagnostic methods and targeted treatments for pelvic pain that was previously misunderstood.
Common Causes of Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain can stem from various sources, including:
– Endometriosis – Deep or nerve-related endometriosis can cause intense pain.
– Nerve Compression or Damage – Issues affecting pelvic nerves can lead to chronic discomfort.
– Pelvic Floor Dysfunction – Tight or weak pelvic muscles contribute to pain.
– Post-Surgical Pain Syndromes – Scarring or nerve damage after surgeries can cause ongoing pain.
Treatment Options: A Personalized Approach
Dr. Richter, a Level 2 Certified Neuropelveologist, offers a multi-faceted approach to pelvic pain management, including:

– Women’s Health Physiotherapy Referrals – Strengthening and restoring pelvic function.
– Office-Based Nerve Blocks – Minimizing nerve-related pain with targeted treatment.
– Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometriosis – Advanced minimally invasive procedures to treat deep endometriosis or nerve involvement.
Hope for Women Who Have Been Told “There’s Nothing Wrong”
Many women have suffered for years without a proper diagnosis. With Neuropelveology, we can now identify and treat pelvic pain effectively, offering hope and relief where there was once uncertainty.
