Do you feel like you have the flu all the time, with achiness and pain all over? Do you feel fatigued everyday, even after a full night's sleep? Does your medical doctor dismiss your symptoms? Have you started to wonder if you are crazy? Don’t! You may be suffering from a condition called fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia can literally rob you of your life. As with many other conditions, controlling the symptoms is important but pain medications only mask the problem. We have had success treating fibromyalgia with a combination of chiropractic adjustments, Graston Technique®, Kinesio Tape and nutritional advice. Many of our patients have reported less frequent and severe symptoms, but most importantly the ability to be more active and enjoy their lives again.
But what causes fibromyalgia? No one knows! Some patients report having an illness (viral, bacterial, or parasitic infection) or some trauma, like a car accident prior to the onset of symptoms. There is no blood test or medical imaging available that points directly to fibromyalgia, so it is often a diagnosis of elimination. Tests are usually done to rule out Lyme disease, arthritis, heart problems, neurological disorders, and other conditions.
If you or someone you love suffers from this life altering disease please don’t hesitate; call us today to see if we can help!
