Measure	Time frame
Disability score. Timepoint: Effort score will be measured at three stages: a) The first session is to assess the outcome measure. b) The second session will be a follow-up four-week after the initial assessments. c) The third session will measure at one-week after discontinuing intervention. Method of measurement: The Persian version of ODI will be used to quantify disability in women with post-partum pelvic pain. The tool is a 10-item questionnaire which mainly questioning about pain intensity related to the daily activities.;Pain severity.
