This study is looking at whether a home physical therapy program, called Active Recovery, helps women recover after endometriosis excision surgery compared to standard care. Active Recovery involves exercises for increasing activity, core strength, and pelvic floor muscles, done twice a day for 12 weeks. You may be able to join if you are a premenopausal woman between 18 and 50 years old, speak English, and are having endometriosis excision surgery (without a hysterectomy) at Legacy Health. You also need to have had chronic pelvic pain for at least 6 months and a diagnosis of high tone pelvic floor dysfunction. The study will measure your quality of life and endometriosis symptoms using questionnaires to see if Active Recovery is helpful. The current status of the study is unclear.
