This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether physical therapy combined with radiofrequency — a non-invasive heat treatment — can help relieve pelvic pain that some women experience after vaginal delivery. About 30% of women have pelvic pain a year after giving birth, and this study wants to see if this combination approach works better than physical therapy alone.
Many women struggle with lasting pelvic and perineal pain after vaginal birth, which can affect their quality of life and intimacy. Early, specialized physical therapy might help, but researchers want to know if adding radiofrequency treatment improves results even more.
You would attend 12 one-on-one sessions with a women's health physical therapist over 6 weeks (about 2 sessions per week, each lasting 45 minutes). Your sessions will include education, pelvic floor exercises, and hands-on treatment. One group will also receive radiofrequency treatment. You'll be assessed before treatment starts, right after it ends, and again at 3 and 6 months to measure pain relief, muscle function, and how the treatment affects your quality of life.
