Understanding Fibromyalgia: Symptoms, Treatment, and Relief at Spinal Health Centre

What is Fibromyalgia and What Are Its Common Symptoms?

​

Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder known for widespread pain that affects the muscles and soft tissues. The pain is often described as a constant dull ache, typically arising from muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This condition can be quite debilitating and is often accompanied by a range of other symptoms, including:

• Widespread Pain: The primary symptom is persistent pain that occurs on both sides of the body and above and below the waist.

• Fatigue: People with fibromyalgia often wake up tired, even after long periods of sleep. Sleep is often disrupted by pain, and many patients have other sleep disorders, such as restless legs syndrome and sleep apnea.

• Cognitive Difficulties: Often referred to as "fibro fog," this symptom impairs the ability to focus, pay attention, and concentrate on mental tasks.

• Headaches: Tension headaches or migraines are common in people with fibromyalgia.

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): Many fibromyalgia patients also experience digestive issues, including IBS.

• Anxiety and Depression: Chronic pain and fatigue can lead to emotional health issues.

The exact cause of fibromyalgia is unknown, but it's believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and psychological factors. It affects the way the brain processes pain signals, leading to an amplified perception of pain.

 

How Can Precise Spinal Adjustments Help Treat Fibromyalgia?

​

One of the most promising non-invasive treatments for fibromyalgia is chiropractic care, particularly precise spinal adjustments. These adjustments focus on correcting misalignments in the spine, which can improve nervous system function and overall health. Here’s how precise spinal adjustments can benefit fibromyalgia patients:

• Pain Reduction: Spinal adjustments help alleviate pressure on nerves, which can reduce pain levels. This is particularly important for fibromyalgia patients, who experience heightened pain sensitivity.

• Improved Mobility and Flexibility: By addressing spinal misalignments, chiropractic care can enhance overall spinal health, leading to better mobility and flexibility. This can help patients engage in more physical activity, which is crucial for managing fibromyalgia symptoms.

• Decreased Muscle Tension: Spinal adjustments can relieve muscle tension and improve blood flow, contributing to reduced pain and discomfort.

• Enhanced Nervous System Function: Proper spinal alignment ensures that the nervous system functions optimally, which can lead to a reduction in pain and other symptoms associated with fibromyalgia.

 

What is BioPhysics Spinal Remodelling and How Does It Benefit Fibromyalgia Patients?

 

BioPhysics Spinal Remodelling is an advanced chiropractic technique that focuses on restoring the spine to its optimal alignment using precise adjustments, spinal exercises, and corrective procedures. This method goes beyond traditional chiropractic care by incorporating a scientific approach to spinal health. Here’s how it benefits fibromyalgia patients:

• Significant Pain Reduction: By restoring proper spinal alignment, BioPhysics Spinal Remodelling can significantly reduce pain levels in fibromyalgia patients.

• Improved Posture: Correcting spinal misalignments can lead to better posture, which can alleviate pain and discomfort.

• Enhanced Nervous System Function: Optimal spinal alignment ensures the nervous system functions at its best, potentially reducing the sensitivity to pain.

• Better Overall Physical Function: Improved spinal health can lead to better overall physical function, making it easier for patients to perform daily activities and exercise, which are crucial for managing fibromyalgia symptoms.

 

What Role Does Physical Therapy Play in Managing Fibromyalgia?

 

Physical therapy is a cornerstone in the management of fibromyalgia, offering a range of techniques and exercises designed to improve movement, strength, and overall physical function. Here are some key benefits:

• Pain and Stiffness Reduction: Physical therapy includes targeted exercises that help reduce pain and stiffness, improving the patient’s ability to move and function.

• Improved Muscle Strength and Endurance: Strengthening exercises enhance muscle endurance and strength, which can help manage fibromyalgia symptoms.

• Enhanced Flexibility and Range of Motion: Flexibility exercises improve the range of motion in joints and muscles, contributing to better physical function.

• Various Therapies: Techniques such as hydrotherapy, heat therapy, and manual therapy can provide additional relief from symptoms.

• Education and Self-Management: Physical therapists educate patients on self-management strategies, helping them cope with symptoms and maintain an active lifestyle.
