F I B R O M Y A L G I A . Fibromyalgia is a complex chronic condition with symptoms that include widespread pain, anxiety, depression, difficulty sleeping, and trouble with mental tasks. Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain and spinal cord process painful and nonpainful signals but the cause of fibromyalgia is still unknown. .... Wide spread research has proven that fibromyalgia sufferers found massage therapy to be an effective treatment for minimizing their symptoms . Benefits of massage for Fibromyalgia 01. Relaxation to improve sleep Evening sessions help patients improve their sleep quality at night, thereby allowing the body to recover faster. 02. Improving muscle tone Massage therapy helps to strengthen the lax muscles and restore the strength and vitality of the client’s body. 03. Improving mental clarity Relaxation sessions help raise health awareness and reduce mental stress for patients. 04. Elimination of headaches Improving blood flow to the brain helps alleviate the physical source of headaches for patients. In addition, having such pain relief helps to keep the patient’s mind in a healthier space. . Some important things to note Typically Only gentle-pressure massages should be given because your muscles can be sensitive. Patients also should stick to shorter sessions especially when they are first starting massage. Otherwise, you take a risk to feel unwanted pain after the treatment. Treatment for fibromyalgia often involves multiple techniques and approaches for symptom relief and it may take some trial and error to find the combination that works for you so it’s important to communicate with me throughout your treatment to find what works best for you. The goal is to make your muscles relax and make them more pliable, not to make you hurt! Think massage might be the answer for your fibromyalgia Symptoms? Or want to know more?
