Have you been told by your medical doctor that you have endometriosis?
Help us understand the impact of a ‘water-based’ versus ‘land-based’ exercise program in reducing pelvic pain and risk factors of cardiovascular disease
The majority of women with endometriosis experience pain between the abdomen and the thighs (pelvic pain). As a consequence, those with this condition have reduced participation in various aspects of life including school, work, and physical activity, imposing health and economic burden.
Exercise is now recognised as a first line of treatment for reducing pain, mental health, and risk factors for cardiovascular disease (i.e. blood pressure, blood cholesterol, blood sugar level, etc.). However, the specific impact of a virtual reality versus telehealth exercise program in managing pelvic pain and improving health in women with endometriosis has yet to be investigated.
We are therefore seeking participants for our trial to investigate the effects of a ‘water-based’ versus ‘land-based’ exercise program in improving pelvic pain and risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
We are looking for people who:
-
Aged between 18 and 45 years old
-
Willing to participate in an exercise program (water-based- or land-based exercise)
-
Interested in learning more about your own health and fitness?
-
No history of broken spine, pelvis, and limbs in the last 5 years
-
No fear of water (hydrophobia)
-
No open skin wounds
-
No lung or heart condition
If you answered YES to all of these statements, you may be eligible to participate in this research study.
