Chiropractic care has gained attention as a potentially complementary approach for managing fibromyalgia, a chronic disorder characterized by widespread pain, tenderness, and fatigue. While scientific research on its efficacy remains mixed, some individuals with fibromyalgia report finding relief and improved quality of life through chiropractic interventions. Chiropractors often focus on spinal adjustments, manual manipulations, and soft tissue therapies to address musculoskeletal imbalances and alleviate pain associated with fibromyalgia. These treatments aim to enhance joint mobility, reduce muscle tension, and improve overall body alignment. However, the effectiveness of chiropractic care for fibromyalgia can vary significantly from person to person. Integrating chiropractic care into a comprehensive fibromyalgia management plan may provide some patients with symptomatic relief and increased well-being.
Another way a chiropractor can help fibromyalgia is by recommending diet changes. For example, it has been shown that food high in sugar can make it harder for the body to fight against fibromyalgia symptoms. In addition to this, if you eat food high in fat, it can cause you to gain weight. This can put extra pressure on your joints causing them to slide out of place and feel weak. Please call (860) 621-2225 for a consultation. We are located at 200 Queen St, Southington.
P.S. We also do Acupuncture and food inflammation testing, which has proven helpful in treating fibromyalgia.
