Fibromyalgia Treatment

Fibromyalgia Treatment Q & A

What exactly is fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a musculoskeletal condition that is marked by a distinct set of symptoms. Is among the most commonly misdiagnosed conditions, which can be incredibly frustrating for patients who are looking for answers and solutions. Research has shown that women are 10 times more likely to suffer from fibromyalgia than men, although more than 12 million Americans are believed to be affected by fibromyalgia. Scientists are unsure of the exact cause of the condition, but it is believed that the condition arises from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Fortunately, patients have access to wide range of available treatment options, and ongoing research efforts are focused on learning more about this condition.

What are the symptoms of fibromyalgia?

Part of what makes fibromyalgia such a difficult condition to treat is the fact that no two patients will share the exact same set of symptoms. For many people, fibromyalgia makes itself known through intense and chronic pain in the back, abdomen, shoulder, neck and hips. Many people also experience chronic headaches as well as dryness in their eyes and sinus cavity. Digestive problems can also occur, including irritable bowel syndrome, incontinence and stomach pain. Fatigue is one of the most challenging symptoms of fibromyalgia, and many people suffer from crushing exhaustion early in the day, even without any type of physical exertion.

Why is chiropractic care for fibromyalgia preferable to other types of treatment?

Many patients seek chiropractic care to address fibromyalgia. For gentle spinal adjustment, many patients are able to find immediate and lasting relief from fibromyalgia pain. In addition, comprehensive chiropractic care goes well beyond spinal adjustment, to include education on proper exercise and stretching techniques, massage therapy and a multitude of self-care options that patients can use at home to address their symptoms. Chiropractic services harness the body’s natural ability to heal, which is a distinct difference from treatment options that focus on the use of prescription pain medications to manage the symptoms of fibromyalgia.
