Breakthrough Treatment is Now Available for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009Chiropractors everywhere are happy to announce a breakthrough treatment for fibromyalgia. If you suffer from the painful symptoms of fibromyalgia, the good news is that chiropractic management can help you no matter how widespread the painful symptoms may be. Many times the pain occurs above and below the waist, and involves both sides of the body. The deep aching that accompanies the condition often travels, shoots, stings, and even gnaws at your body.
As if the intense pain and suffering from fibromyalgia weren’t enough, a disproportionate ninety percent of fibromyalgia sufferers also have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, perhaps you may be one of them. This “double whammy” can result in your not only suffering from pain and fatigue, but also malaise, headaches, numbness and pins and needles, dizziness, sleep disturbance, swollen feeling in tissues, stiffness, sensitivity to noise and stress, and cognitive impairment.
Chiropractic techniques have been found to be highly beneficial in reversing trauma-induced injuries by reducing inflammation to the nerves in the brain stem and spinal cord that can trigger pain, neuromuscular dysfunction, and fatigue.
What do “trauma-induced injuries” have to do with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome? The connection may surprise you.
While the precise cause of these syndromes is not known, current research has pinpointed traumatic neck injuries, such as whiplash and concussion, as risk factors for the onset of both fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. And, here’s the thing: although the pain and fatigue produced by spinal injuries can be triggered immediately, often it can take quite a long time, perhaps months or years to develop. These types of injuries may no be remembered by the time fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms appear.
If you are someone who experiences the distressing symptoms of one, or both, of these two debilitating conditions, you may find it difficult to take part in even the simplest activities in life, and you may even be experiencing depression and feeling defeated. But, don’t give up hope because your chiropractor can help you.
When it comes to the knowledge and treatment of the spine, your chiropractor is an expert. Chiropractic management has been shown to be extraordinarily effective in reversing trauma-induced spinal injury. If you’ve been experiencing the pain and discomfort caused by fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, see your chiropractor today to see if chiropractic management can help to eliminate your suffering.
