One of the most frustrating experiences for women with pelvic pain or endometriosis is being told that tests look normal.

Here are six real reasons pelvic pain often doesn’t show up clearly on imaging:

Muscle guarding and overactivity
Tight or constantly braced pelvic floor muscles don’t appear on scans, but they can drive significant pain.

Nervous system sensitization
When pain has been present for a long time, the nervous system can amplify signals even without visible tissue damage.

Scar tissue and adhesions
Scars don’t always show clearly on imaging, especially when they affect movement and glide between tissues.

Inflammation patterns that fluctuate
Pain related to hormonal cycles or inflammation can change day to day and may not be present at the time of imaging.

Altered tissue mobility
Restricted movement between layers of tissue can create pain with pressure, movement, or pe*******on without structural abnormalities.

Pressure and load sensitivity
Pelvic pain often relates to how the body handles pressure during sitting, standing, s3x, bowel movements, or exercise — something scans don’t measure.

Pain doesn’t need visible proof to be real. It needs context, pattern recognition, and a whole-body understanding of how tissues and the nervous system are responding.

If you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area and living with pelvic or endometriosis-related pain that hasn’t been fully explained, comment HEAL.

Bladder symptoms have a way of sneaking in and then slowly becoming part of daily life.

Most women don’t panic when they notice them. They adjust. They plan. They brace. They tell themselves it’s probably fine or something to deal with later.

What I see clinically is that these patterns are usually less about strength and more about how the pelvic floor coordinates with breathing, movement, stress, and pressure throughout the day.

The earlier these patterns are understood, the easier they tend to be to work with. Waiting doesn’t make them dangerous, but it often makes them louder.

If you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area and want to talk through what your bladder symptoms might be telling us, comment HEAL.

A lot of pelvic health issues don’t start as emergencies.
They start as small signals that are easy to dismiss.

What I see most often isn’t people overreacting. It’s people adapting. Adjusting positions. Avoiding certain movements. Bracing. Powering through. Telling themselves it’s probably fine.

Pelvic floor symptoms don’t need to be constant or severe to be worth attention. In fact, earlier check-ins often lead to clearer answers and less frustration down the line.

Pelvic health applies whether you’ve had kids or not. Hormones, stress, surgery, athletic load, scar tissue, and nervous system patterns all play a role.

If you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area and want a space to talk through symptoms without minimizing them, drop HEAL below and we can start there.

This type of pattern tells me we need to look at how pressure is being managed across the day, not just whether muscles are “strong enough.” It also helps explain why symptoms don’t always show up during short activities, but appear after sustained demand.

If this describes what you notice and you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area, drop DOUBTS below and we can talk through what this pattern might be telling us.

Red light therapy works deeper than the surface of a scar.

At the tissue level, red and near-infrared light help cells produce more energy, which supports repair and remodeling. For scar tissue, this can mean improved circulation, reduced sensitivity, and better tissue mobility over time.

Scars often feel tight, numb, overly sensitive, or restricted not because they’re “stuck forever,” but because the tissue underneath isn’t moving or communicating well yet. Red light therapy can help create an environment where that tissue calms down and responds more easily to other hands-on or movement-based work.

This is especially useful for postpartum scars, C-section scars, perineal tears, and abdominal incisions where the tissue may look healed but still feel uncomfortable or disconnected.

In pelvic floor OT, red light therapy is one tool I use to support scar healing in a gentle, non-invasive way that respects sensitive tissue.

If you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area and have a scar that still doesn’t feel right, drop HEAL below and we can talk through whether this approach makes sense for you.

Babies are welcome during sessions!

That includes pelvic floor therapy, postpartum check-ins, follow-ups, or appointments where we’re focused on education, nervous system work, or answering questions.

Postpartum care doesn’t always come with childcare, and waiting for the “perfect time” often means delaying support that could actually help you feel better sooner.

If bringing your baby makes it possible for you to show up, that’s okay here.

If you’re in the Encinitas or San Diego area and have questions about whether this kind of care could work for you, drop DOUBTS below and we’ll talk it through.

A lot of people with pelvic pain notice this pattern and assume they’re doing something wrong.

In reality, pelvic symptoms are influenced by more than food alone. Hormonal shifts, stress levels, gut motility, inflammation, and nervous system load all change how the body processes the same input.

This is why “safe foods” can suddenly feel unsafe, and why elimination alone doesn’t always solve pelvic symptoms.

In pelvic floor OT, this pattern tells me we need to look at the whole system, not just the plate.

This is something I work through often with patients in Encinitas and San Diego.

The 1–10 pain scale was designed for short-term injuries.
It doesn’t reflect what happens when pain is present every day.

With chronic pelvic pain, people adapt. They learn how to sit through discomfort, move carefully, plan their day, and keep going. Over time, that becomes their baseline.

So a “3 out of 10” doesn’t mean the pain is minor. It often means the person has learned how to live around it.

In pelvic floor OT, I care less about the number and more about how pain affects sitting, movement, intimacy, energy, and recovery time.

This is a conversation I have often with patients here in Encinitas and San Diego.

I see this pattern constantly in postpartum pelvic floor therapy.

Someone feels okay day to day.
They get cleared.
They start exercising again.
And symptoms show up that weren’t there before.

That doesn’t mean exercise caused damage. It usually means the pelvic floor hasn’t relearned how to manage pressure, breath, and load at higher levels yet.

That’s a rehab issue, not a failure.

If you’re noticing symptoms only once workouts come back in and you’re not sure what to do next, comment DOUBTS below and we’ll sort through it together.

Biofeedback doesn’t replace hands-on care or movement work, but it adds clarity that a lot of people are missing.
