Women who experience sexual pain are more likely to experience sexual dysfunction, relationship distress, decreased quality of life, anxiety, and depression. One in five nulliparous women (a female who has never given birth to a baby) experiences moderate dyspareunia. Myofascial pain is typically treated using manual manipulation (Manual manipulation involves using skilled, hands-on maneuvers to perform soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release and more) or Thiele massage. In this study the aim is to find the individual and combined effect of these techniques. The study will be Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT). Non probabiity convenient sampling technique will be used to assign randomly half of patients in group A for the experimental group and half in group B who will meet the inclusion criteria. Group A will include participants who will receive myofascial releases and Thiele massage. Whereas Group B will include participants who will receive myofascial releasing techniques but not Thiele massage. Both group will have 1 session per week for 12 weeks. Numeric pain rating scale, Female sexual function index, Functional pelvic pain scale would be used as an outcome measure tools.
