Management Through Physical Therapy
 

Gill_Plyobox_For_Sale

"While there is no cure for either CFS or fibromyalgia, the way a person responds to either condition has a big effect on symptoms and quality of life, often a larger effect than medical treatments."
- Bruce Campbell, Ph.D. (2010). Managing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia: A Seven-Part Plan. CSH Press: Palo Alto, CA.

Physical therapists can be very helpful in treating people with fibromyalgia. In addition to helping you develop an individualized management plan, your physical therapist may also teach you about pain-relieving options, including hot or cold packs, massage, or electrotherapy.

In addition, a physical therapist can spend the time with you to help you understand fibromyalgia and how it is impacting your quality of life. The first step of course is to understand what fibromyalgia is and your management options through physical therapy. Start the process by viewing the educational document below. If you have questions, please contact us.
