Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterized by chronic pain in the muscles and soft tissues surrounding joints, fatigue, and tenderness at specific sites in the body. While the cause is unknown, an estimated 3 million people are affected in the United States. Because we offer a conservative, hands-on approach to health care, some patients suffering from fibromyalgia are supplementing their medical care with chiropractic care. Thousands of people benefit everyday from safe, conservative chiropractic treatment. Chiropractors focus on the cause NOT the symptoms getting amazing results. By dealing with the nervous system, we are able to reduce nerve interference and help to restore more normal function, thus reducing muscle spasm and pain.

In 1997, a study was conducted by three Canadian chiropractors on the effectiveness of chiropractic care for patients with fibromyalgia. They reported significant improvement in flexibility and reduction of pain levels and recommended that this type of treatment be included along with medical treatments for this condition. I know how important it is that you find a natural, effective and safe solution to the painful and debilitating condition that we call Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) or Fibromyalgia (FMS).

CFS and FMS seem to be those overlapping diseases that no one really talks about. Have you seen a CFS or FMS commercial anywhere? Approximately 80% of CFS patients have an overlapping diagnosis of Fibromyalgia syndrome. To the vast majority CFS and FMS are the same illness.
