FIBROMYALGIA MASSAGE

Fibromyalgia is more of many different symptoms rather than just a single disease. Physical trauma, emotional trauma or even hormonal changes have been shown to trigger the symptoms most commonly associated with fibromyalgia, which include:

  • Generalized pain all over the body or that begins in one spot and then spreads to other regions over time.

  • Problems concentrating or remembering due to extreme anxiety or fatigue.

  • Sleeps disturbances.

  • Restless leg syndrome.

  • Extreme fatigue.

  • Tenderness, muscle pain, tightness or burning.

  • Feeling depressed.

  • Irritable bowel syndrome.

    Over the years, many studies have conclude that trauma, injury or infection affects the central nervous system’s reaction to pain, which leads to fibromyalgia. Some believe that trauma causes chemical defects in the muscles and then the nervous system, which causes chronic pain, while others think that injury to the central nervous system itself alters brain patterns, which results in chronic pain.

    No matter the cause of fibromyalgia, several studies involving brain scans have firmly established that fibromyalgia patients tend to feel an intense degree of pain as compared to other individuals.

    Many of these symptoms and studies are common to some other syndromes or illnesses (chronic fatigue, rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson, e.g).

    MASSAGE…

    Though fibromyalgia has no cure, it is possible to manage the condition through regular massage therapy.

    Fibromyalgia pain is similar to osteoarthritis, for which the Arthritis Foundation recommends the use of massage to help relieve many of its symptoms, including pain, anxiety, stiffness and disturbed sleep.

    During massage therapy, pressure points just below the skin are stimulated, which signals the brain to release serotonin and other stress-reducing neurochemicals, which promotes relaxation and helps alleviate pain.
