Mind and body are connected.
Pain is a physical experience but also an emotional one. Taking care of one's psychological and sexual well-being is part of the healing.
Living with vulvodynia, endometriosis or other chronic pelvic pain conditions is a daily challenge. Not being able to predict pain spikes, having painful intercourse, or failing to work can make us feel alone, helpless and exhausted.
It is time for a change.
Pain is a physical experience but also an emotional one. Taking care of one's psychological and sexual well-being is part of the healing.

You will only need a few steps to gain access to Wave and the private community.
Join Hale's Beta program and learn how to manage pain in everyday life.
Take a very short online test to see if the program is right for you. If it's not, we'll figure out how to help you.
Discover your specific program on our platform and follow your written, audio and video sessions.
Tell your story and compare yourself with other Halers. Not being alone increases motivation and helps to carry on good habits.
Taking care of your pain can be exhausting. That's why you won't have to do it alone. You will be able to share your experience, doubts, and satisfactions with a private group of Halers.
Wave was designed with the support of international experts in psychotherapy and sexology.
More and more studies confirm that learning to perceive, know and accept pain helps to reduce its impact.
You won't have to think about anything but your own well-being.
The course will start on March 6: Take the test to find out if Wave is right for you.
If it is more convenient for you, you can pay in installments.
No, having a diagnosis is not a requirement to participate. If you have one, however, this can help you make the most of Wave and find it more effective. If you do not yet have a medical diagnosis, but the specialized figures who have seen you agree on your condition, this program can still help you.
The program lasts 8 weeks, from March 6th to April 30th.
This refers to pain concentrated in the pelvic area, the area between the bellybutton and the vulva, that has lasted for more than three months. It may include conditions such as vulvodynia, endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, vaginismus (levator ani syndrome), pudendal neuropathy, or irritable bowel syndrome.
Each week there will be an open call with the other participants. They are not mandatory appointments, but open calls for those who want to participate. Regarding the sessions, you can do them whenever you want.
The official price is €79.00 for the 8-week program (€1.40 per day).
Wave, and all services we use to receive and process data within it, are GDPR compliant. You can access our Privacy Policy in the dedicated link in the footer. You can decide whether or not to make available any additional data you are asked for by us. We will make that clear to you at every step because data is a great tool and we want you to know how you can make the most of it.
Absolutely! Wave helps to manage the impact of pain in daily life, so if you have pain given by vaginismus or pelvic hypertone, the program is also designed for you.
Yes, Wave will be 100% remotely, so anyone can participate anywhere, anytime. But nothing will stop us from meeting live soon at some physical community event 😍
No, Wave is not therapeutic, in the sense that it is not yet certified as such. It is, however, a digital support tool for everyday life. Its contents are based on scientific evidence and result in an improved relationship with pain.
Wave is based on science. Each piece of content is drawn from proven scientific evidence and has been vetted by our scientific advisors. They are a sexologist and a psychotherapist specialized in cognitive behavioural therapies. You'll often find sources or references to in-depth articles if you want to learn more!
Yes, it is designed to be compatible. Wave is not like in-person therapy. It is a daily, digital support tool to create and maintain pain management habits. In a perfect world, it would be wonderful to have both: a professional figure and support to manage the daily challenges and engage with people going through the same experiences.
You can pay, directly from the website, with any card activated for online payments and PayPal. Should you have any problems, please contact us at hello@halecommunity.com.
As soon as you sign up, we will give you access to our platform. There you can watch the content whenever you want, as much as you want. Content will remain available to you, even after you've watched it.
On average, one and a half hours per week. Sessions are short pills that you can manage as is best for you: for example, in the evening before bedtime, or over the weekend.
It's easier than you think: you must have a vulva, be older than 18 yo, and have a pelvic pain condition that has lasted for more than 3 months (and therefore can be considered chronic). If you match these characteristics, Wave is a great fit!
Wave is an individual program, specifically created to fit your schedule. However, you will never be alone: other Halers will join the program, and you will be able to engage with them on the platform, if and when you wish. In addition, we will always be available for any questions or concerns.
