SUMMARY

Objective: To determine if the tele-rehabilitation program for chronic pelvic pain associated with endometriosis composed of pain education, therapeutic exercise and respiratory control decreases pain according to the Visual Numerical Scale (EVN), catastrophizing with the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), kinesiophobia with the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK), improves sexual function according to the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and QoL compared to the Control Group with the Health Status Questionnaire (SF-12). * Follow-up: four evaluated questionnaires: preintervention; postintervention, 3 months postintervention, 6 months postintervention * Participants: 66 women diagnosed with endometriosis with chronic pelvic pain in different Spanish endometriosis associations. * Randomization: women will be randomly assigned to two groups using the EpiData 3.1 software * Interventions: Experimental Group: therapeutic exercise + conscious breathing (16 sessions) and pain education (4 sessions) through the TRAK platform. Control Group: They will receive informative material in weeks 1, 3, 5 and 7 about their pathology and with recommendations for them to achieve healthy lifestyle habits that do not further damage their disease.
