Brief Summary

Chronic pelvis pain is very common between adult women. Significant progress is made in clarifying the multifactorial model of chronic pain pathogenesis, but a more complete assessment is important in order to improve the therapeutic approach. The purpose of this study is stablish a clinical and symptomatological profile of women with chronic pelvic pain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in postural control

    Postural control will be assessed using the Mini-BESTest, a 14-item test that focuses on dynamic balance, specifically anticipatory transitions (six items), reactive postural control (six items), sensory orientation (six items), and dynamic gait (10 items). Each item is scored from 0 to 2; a score of 0 indicates that a person is unable to perform the task, whereas a score of 2 is normal. The best score is the maximum amount of points, being 28.

    Change from baseline postural control at 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Nervous assessment

    baseline

  • Spinal assessment

    baseline

  • Balance under dual task conditions

    Baseline, 8 weeks

  • Trigger points evaluation

    baseline

  • Self perceived health status

    Baseline, 8 weeks.

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Adult women aged over 18 years old with pain during more than six months are included in the study. These patients will receive a global posture reeducation.

Other: Global posture reeducation

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Adult women aged over 18 years old without chronic pain. will receive no intervention.

Interventions

An assessment of the women is performed using global posture reeducation.
