At the heart of our approach to treating endometriosis-related pain lies a commitment to whole-person healing that acknowledges both the physical and emotional dimensions of living with this complex condition. Our philosophy encompasses several core principles: personalized, multi-faceted care. We believe that each person’s experience with endometriosis is unique. Pain patterns, symptom triggers, and responses to treatment vary widely between individuals. Therefore, we reject one-size-fits-all approaches in favor of personalized treatment plans that address the specific manifestations of endometriosis in each person. Integration of Eastern and Western Approaches: Rather than positioning conventional medicine and natural therapies as opposing forces, we view them as complementary parts of a comprehensive treatment strategy. Surgical interventions and hormone therapies may be essential components of care for many, while acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle modifications can provide additional layers of support that address underlying imbalances and enhance overall well-being. Addressing Root Causes, Not Just Symptoms While pain relief is an immediate priority, our philosophy extends beyond symptom management to address the underlying factors contributing to pain and inflammation. This means working to modulate the immune response, balance hormonal fluctuations, reduce systemic inflammation, and restore proper circulation to the pelvic region. Empowerment Through Education We believe that understanding your condition is the first step toward taking control of it. By providing education about the mechanisms of endometriosis, the connections between symptoms, and the rationale behind various treatments, we empower you to make informed decisions about your care and become an active participant in your healing journey. The Body’s Innate Healing Capacity A cornerstone of our philosophy is recognizing and supporting the body’s natural capacity for healing. Rather than always fighting against the body, our treatments aim to create optimal conditions for the body’s self-regulatory mechanisms to function more effectively, bringing systems back into balance and reducing pain naturally. Holistic View of Pain We understand that endometriosis pain exists within a complex web of physical, emotional, and social factors. Stress, sleep quality, past trauma, dietary patterns, and environmental influences all play roles in pain perception and inflammatory responses. Our approach honors this complexity by addressing these interconnected elements rather than isolating pain as a purely physical symptom. Quality of Life as the Ultimate Measure While objective measures like lesion size have their place, we believe the true measure of successful treatment is improved quality of life. Our goal is not just pain reduction but helping you reclaim your vitality, emotional well-being, and ability to engage fully in the activities that bring meaning to your life. Through this multidimensional philosophy, we strive to offer not just relief from pain but a pathway to renewed wholeness and well-being for those living with endometriosis.

What type of surgery do you perform for endometriosis: Excision
Medication: Only oral contraceptives and Mirena IUD. I recommend their use after excision surgery to avoid recurrence. I avoid using GnRH agonists, as this makes excision difficult unless the patient really would like to try this.
Approach to Persistent Pain After Surgery: A multi-modality approach is always best. This includes collaboration with physical therapy, nerve blocks in the office, and possible neuromodulator implants depending on the severity of pain.
