This review evaluates the efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions, including physiotherapy, acupuncture, and psychological therapies, for managing pain in women with endometriosis. The evidence indicates that these approaches can significantly reduce pain severity compared to usual care alone. However, the authors note that practical challenges regarding implementation and patient adherence may limit the real-world effectiveness of these treatments. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on non-pharmacological pain management strategies for this condition.
