Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory, and mood issues. It amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain processes pain signals. The exact cause of fibromyalgia is unknown, but it's believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and psychological factors. It often coexists with other painful conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, and tension headaches. While there is no cure for fibromyalgia, a variety of medications, therapies, and lifestyle changes can help manage the symptoms.

The exact cause of fibromyalgia is not known, but it's believed to result from a combination of physical, neurological, and psychological factors. Here are some of the factors thought to contribute to its onset:

1. Genetic Predisposition: There seems to be a genetic component, as fibromyalgia often runs in families. Specific genetic mutations may make individuals more susceptible to developing the disorder.

2. Infections: Some illnesses appear to trigger or aggravate fibromyalgia.

3. Physical or Emotional Trauma: Physical trauma, such as a car accident, or emotional stress, can precipitate fibromyalgia or make its symptoms worse. Post-traumatic stress disorder has been linked to fibromyalgia.

4. Abnormal Pain Perception Processing: People with fibromyalgia may have abnormalities in how pain signals are processed in the brain, leading to an increased sensitivity or perception of pain known as central sensitization.

5. Hormonal Disturbances: Irregularities in certain hormones, like serotonin and cortisol, which are involved in pain and stress response, may be part of what causes fibromyalgia.

6. Sleep Disturbances: People with fibromyalgia often have problems with sleep, and poor sleeping patterns can be a contributing factor to the condition.

It's likely that a combination of these factors, rather than a single cause, leads to the development of fibromyalgia. Further research is ongoing to better understand this complex condition.

Managing Fibromyalgia can be challenging, and conventional medical treatments often involve pharmaceutical drugs with associated risks and side effects. However, there are various approaches available that can help alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for individuals with Fibromyalgia. Our treatments, including Physical, Neurological, and Metabolic methods, aim to provide relief and enhance overall well-being without the need for surgery or pharmaceutical drugs.

Depending on the severity and compliance of each patient, we typically average 30-85% improvement in symptoms if we can accept them into our program.

Individual results may vary, and not all patients may experience the same level of improvement.
