Still in Pain After Being Told Everything Looks Normal?

You've had the scans. You've done the exercises. Maybe you've even tried physio. But the pain in your pelvis, tailbone, or with sex keeps coming back, and nobody has told you why.

We identify the actual driver, not just the location of pain.

Pelvic pain has eight or more known contributors. Most clinics treat only one. We assess your whole system to find which ones are active in your case.

We combine the treatments that evidence supports for your type.

Depending on your drivers, we pair pelvic floor physiotherapy with shockwave therapy and neuromodulation. One-size protocols rarely work for pelvic pain.

We build a plan that holds when life returns to normal.

Pelvic pain often comes back because the root cause was never addressed. We track your progress and adjust so that improvement sticks.

60-minute one-on-one assessment + treatment plan.

No pressure, no contracts.

Is This You?

If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

Pelvic pain, pressure, or aching that gets worse with prolonged sitting, standing, or during sex

Scans and tests came back normal, but the pain is still there every single day

Postpartum pain, painful intercourse, or pelvic pressure that has not resolved months after delivery

Tailbone pain that flares when sitting, standing up from a chair, or after a fall

Pelvic floor exercises or Kegels made things worse, not better, and nobody explained why

You want someone to actually find out what is causing your pain, not just hand you an exercise sheet and hope for the best

The Real Problem

Why Your Pelvis Still Hurts After "Trying Everything"

Explore 4 slides on Pelvic Pain: Chronic pelvic pain, painful intercourse, or tailbone pain.

Chronic pelvic pain is almost never caused by one thing. It involves overlapping drivers that interact with each other, which is why treating just one at a time rarely gives lasting results. Most people dealing with chronic pelvic pain have two or more of these happening at the same time. That is why we assess the full chain, from spine to pelvic floor to hip mechanics, not just the painful spot.

OUR APPROACH

The Unpain 3-Part Pelvic Pain: Chronic pelvic pain, painful intercourse, or tailbone pain. Relief Program

INITIAL VISIT

Whole-Body Root-Cause Assessment

Full pelvic floor, hip, lumbar spine, and tailbone movement assessment to identify which drivers are active in your case

Screening for pelvic floor tone patterns (high tension vs. underactivity), scar involvement, and nervous system sensitization

A written treatment plan with clear priorities and transparent pricing before you commit to anything further

Weeks 1 to 6

Pain Modulation and Tissue Calming

Focused shockwave therapy targeting the musculoskeletal and myofascial contributors driving your pain (typically 3 to 5 sessions)

Pelvic floor physiotherapy with hands-on manual care to normalize muscle tone, address trigger points, and restore coordination rather than just strengthen

NESA neuromodulation when nervous system dysregulation or stress physiology is suspected, working to lower the alarm response that keeps muscles guarded

Make daily sitting, movement, and intimacy more tolerable, sooner.

6+ Weeks and Beyond

Capacity Building and Progressive Aftercare

Graduated loading of the pelvic floor and surrounding muscles matched to your actual activity demands, whether that is returning to sport, work, or intimate activity

Ongoing reassessment to catch early signs of recurrence before they become setbacks

Strategies to manage stress-related guarding and sleep disruption, two of the most consistent drivers of pelvic pain relapse

What To Expect

What Results Can I Expect?

Every case is different, but research and our clinical experience consistently show:

Improvement often begins in the first 4 to 6 weeks. For conditions like tailbone pain and male chronic pelvic pain syndromes, shockwave therapy studies commonly report meaningful symptom reduction by around 12 weeks from the start of treatment. Painful intercourse studies report reductions in pain across follow-up windows in active treatment groups.

Many patients are able to return to activities they had given up. Sitting comfortably for longer periods, resuming intimacy without fear, and moving through daily life without constant pelvic awareness are the functional outcomes we work toward in every plan.

A multimodal approach outperforms single-treatment approaches in this condition. Research supports combining targeted pelvic physiotherapy with regenerative and neuromodulatory care rather than applying one protocol to everyone. This is our clinical model.

Our promise: we will tell you honestly at the assessment if we do not believe you are a good candidate for this approach. If your condition needs a different pathway, we will refer you directly.

EVIDENCE

The Research Behind Our Approach

Myofascial pelvic floor physiotherapy has been shown to achieve more than double the responder rate of general massage in a randomized multicenter trial of urological chronic pelvic pain syndromes, supporting targeted over generic treatment approaches.

Low-intensity shockwave therapy has been shown to reduce pain and improve quality of life in chronic pelvic pain syndromes affecting men, confirmed in multiple systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials with outcomes commonly evaluated at 12 weeks.

Shockwave therapy for painful intercourse and vulvodynia produced pain reductions exceeding 30% in active treatment groups in randomized placebo-controlled studies, with no significant change in the sham group.

Adding EMTT to standard care reduced pain and disability significantly more than standard care alone in a randomized controlled trial of musculoskeletal pain affecting the lumbar and pelvic region, supporting its use when hip and back contributors are driving pelvic symptoms.

Altered central pain processing, where the nervous system amplifies signals from the pelvic region, is consistently documented in urogynecological chronic pelvic pain conditions in systematic review evidence, supporting a nervous-system-informed treatment pathway for affected patients.

Outcomes are group averages from clinical trials; individual results vary.
