FIBROMYALGIA

Chiropractic care and Fibromyalgia

Chiropractic care is a drug-free, hands-on approach to healthcare to address neuromusculoskeletal conditions such as headaches, back and neck pain. The main treatment utilized is manipulation. The goal of manipulation is to gently restore normal physiologic motion to the joints which become restricted because of injury to the tissue. Tissue injury can be caused by trauma or repetitive stress to the body. When a joint is not moving properly it causes muscular tightness which can exacerbate Fibromyalgia symptoms.

According to the American Chiropractic Association chiropractic care has consistently ranked as one of the therapeutic approaches that offer the most relief for the Fibromyalgia patient.

Benefits of massage therapy

Massage Therapy is a therapeutic treatment that helps to relieve symptoms of Fibromyalgia by reducing muscle tightness and tension. Massage therapy also helps to reduce stress and improve sleep. Many patients report a decrease in symptoms and improved sleep quality when receiving regular massages.
