Why keep living in pain from Fibromyalgia?

There are an estimated 5 million people in the U.S. who suffer from fibromyalgia, the majority of whom are women. If you have recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, you may be wondering what is fibromyalgia or how can you best treat your condition. At Back on Track Chiropractic and Wellness Center, we treat many patients who suffer from fibromyalgia. We can help you set up a treatment plan for this condition that works for your lifestyle.

Coping with Fibromyalgia Pain

Fibromyalgia can leave you experiencing chronic pain, headaches, stiffness, or tension at trigger points all over your body. Over-the-counter medication, stretching, heat, or ice may not make fibromyalgia pain go away. Over time, you can experience anxiety, depression, stress, and exhaustion as you do your best to cope with the symptoms you are feeling.

You may be wondering how you can make the pain end and experience good health, good sleep, or the benefits of regular exercise without this associated pain. The good news is, we can help you to experience relief from the painful symptoms of fibromyalgia and get back to living your life with less pain. Chiropractic adjustments can gently stretch stiff muscles and joints to release tension locked inside the trigger points. This can help you feel better immediately and can decrease your pain in the long term.

Treatment for Fibromyalgia

Chiropractic care is a very effective surgical alternative when it comes to treatment for fibromyalgia. If you are looking for a treatment method to complement your doctor's plan of care, or that doesn't include drugs, this may be the right choice. By having regular chiropractic care, you can reduce the swelling, pain, and stiffness that are often associated with this condition. As a result, you may feel more energy throughout the day, experience better flexibility and range of motion, and be able to sleep better at night.

At present, there is no cure for fibromyalgia. However, regular chiropractic care from the skilled chiropractors at Back on Track Chiropractic and Wellness Center can go a long way toward improved your daily life.
