Help for pain with intercourse!

Dr. Jeffcoat does a fantastic job explaining the anatomy, emotions and difficulties of experiencing pain with interourse and detailing the steps of how to overcome it. I've been a pelvic floor theapist for 25 years and have helped thousands of women overcome pain with intercourse to get back to the fullest enjoyment of life. This books is a great tool to help my patients and I believe it is a great stand alone resource for women struggling with pain with intercourse. This book gives programs of exercises and stretches with a step-by-step for each aspect of the process, what to do if you have an exacerbation of symptoms and how to progress at your own pace as you are able. I think this book also does a great job of "taking the pressure" off, offering ideas and strategies of how to navigate this difficult issue with your partner and how to seek more help in the healthcare community should you need it. In addition to being great for those suffering with pain with intercourse, it's a great resource for pelvic floor therapists! The book gives ideas of how to design a detailed home program for patients and would be very helpful in conjunction with pelvic floor therapy. Great job on a very difficult subject!
