Why a multidisciplinary approach makes sense... |
|
Pelvic and sexual pain can be caused by physical or psychological
problems. Physical pain can create emotional problems and emotional problems can contribute to physical pain. Once the cycle starts, the
emotional and physical problems interact and feed upon each other.
Treatment of only one aspect of this problem is often doomed to failure. |
