This study presents 4 groups; two groups receive 8 radiofrequency sessions, one group receives 8 sessions of myofascial release therapy (MRT) and the last group receives no treatment at all (NT). The two RF groups have been divided into a RF intervention group (RFIG) and a RF control group (RFCG) which receives sham treatment. The RF groups are double-blinded. Other than RF, both groups perform daily Thiele massage at home. The sessions last for 20 minutes and take place once a week during 8 weeks.\n\nThe main variable evaluated is the level of pain during the muscular assessment carried out by an expert pelvic floor physical therapist using the Verbal numeric Scale in the first session and at the end of the 8 sessions. Secondary variables are: sexual function (throughout FSFI questionnaire), pain catastrophizing (ECD), quality of life (EQ5D), anxiety and depression (HADS), central sensitization (CSI) as well as other pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms (PFDI).",[80],"Chronic Pelvic Pain",[82,83,84,85],"chronic pelvic pain","myofascial syndrome","radiofrequency","manual therapy","2025-03-26",{"date":88,"type":89},"2025-04-03","ACTUAL",{"date":91,"type":89},"2022-05-10",{"date":93,"type":74},"2025-06-15",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
