5.8 Vera Wellness - Supporting women with endometriosis and chronic pain


Listen Later

Welcome to the final episode of the Best in Women's Health Season five.

This episode is like no other because it is an interview that I conducted live while on a recent trip to Australia, where I had the absolute pleasure of visiting a truly exquisite in integrative health practice - Vera Wellness.

I speak with founder gynecologist Dr. Peta Wright and her colleague, who is also a leading gynecologist, Dr. Thea Bola.

We debunk some of the overriding myths around endometriosis and chronic pain, and explore how they have seen as gynecologists a traditional approach of laparoscopies that is failing so many women with endometriosis and chronic pain.

We talk about the importance and the necessity of an in integrative approach to chronic pelvic pain and supporting women with a diagnosis of endometriosis, including the terminology and how diagnosis is delivered to women.

It's an incredibly powerful and unique episode because it's live, but also because these two women are absolute pioneers in changing the shape and our attitude to women's menstrual health in general.
