Abdominopelvic Fascial Release for Post-Cesarean Menstrual Pain and Scar Mobility

Sponsor: Cairo University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to determine whether adding abdominopelvic fascial release to a standardized stretching exercise program is more effective than stretching exercises alone in reducing menstrual pain in women following cesarean section. The study will enroll women aged 20 to 35 years with moderate to severe dysmenorrhea after cesarean delivery. Researchers will compare the effects of abdominopelvic fascial release combined with stretching exercises with stretching exercises alone on menstrual pain and scar mobility. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups, undergo assessments before and after the intervention period, and receive the assigned treatment according to the study protocol.

Abdominopelvic fascial Release

Abdominopelvic fascial release is a manual therapy intervention designed to restore mobility of the abdominal and pelvic fascial tissues by applying sustained, low-load pressure to fascial restrictions. The treatment targets the cesarean scar, abdominal fascia, diaphragm, and psoas muscle to improve fascial mobility, reduce tissue restrictions, alleviate pain, and enhance tissue function. The intervention will be administered for 30 minutes per session, twice weekly for 2 weeks by a licensed physiotherapist.
