Pelvic Pain Isn’t “In Your Head”: Scar Tissue, Erections & Somatic Sexual Healing with Lorraine Pentello

What if chronic pelvic pain, painful sex, or erection challenges weren’t random… but your body asking for deeper healing?

In this grounded and deeply practical conversation, Rahi Chun sits down with Lorraine Pentello — somatic sex educator, sexological bodyworker, and scar tissue remediation specialist — to explore how unresolved trauma, inflammation, scar tissue, and nervous system stress can quietly disrupt our sexual vitality.

After years of living with debilitating pelvic pain and being told “nothing is wrong,” Lorraine discovered a holistic, body-based approach that changed everything — not only resolving her pain, but reshaping her entire relationship with her body and sexuality.

Together, we unpack how the four domains of health — biochemical, biomechanical, emotional, and scar tissue — work together to restore circulation, sensation, pleasure, and sexual function for people of all genders.

This episode bridges:
 pelvic health • scar tissue healing • erection support • somatic awareness • trauma resolution • embodied sexuality

Inside this conversation:

• Why chronic pelvic pain is often dismissed — and what’s actually happening in the tissues
 • How scar tissue can restrict organs, blood flow, digestion, and sexual pleasure
 • The four domains framework for resolving pain holistically
 • Anti-inflammatory nutrition and gut health for reducing pelvic inflammation
 • Castor oil packs and simple at-home scar remediation practices
