In fact, many of these aches and pains can be traced back to the spinal cord and the nervous system. When dysfunction occurs here, it can impact the rest of the body in a less-than-ideal way.
Fibromyalgia, also referred to as fibro, is a disorder impacting the musculoskeletal system and causing widespread pain. This pain is frequently accompanied by fatigue, low moods and sleep issues.
This condition is more common in women than men and it can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. You may experience flare-ups where symptoms worsen.
So, why does this happen?
Experts indicate that fibromyalgia is frequently due to an abnormal perception and processing of pain. However, this doesn’t make the pain any less real for those that have fibromyalgia.
Common symptoms that many fibromyalgia patients suffer from include:
Many patients with fibromyalgia further typically have a lower threshold for pain. If you’ve experienced this or a combination of the symptoms above, you may benefit from visiting your doctor to obtain a proper diagnosis. From there, you can seek out proper treatment and get back to feeling your best.
For a proper diagnosis, you need to visit your doctor. Your doctor may use X-rays, medical history, a thorough examination and blood tests to diagnose fibromyalgia.
A diagnosis of fibromyalgia does not mean you will always experience pain. While there is no cure, various treatment methods, such as chiropractic care, can help you manage your pain effectively.
For some, they may experience flare-ups throughout their lifetime. Others may also go through periods where they experience no pain or have multiple good days. However, when you are equipped with the right education and knowledge, you will know how to approach your pain and cope accordingly.
Unfortunately, as of right there, there is no cure for fibromyalgia and there are no treatment options that will relieve all of the symptoms of the condition. However, there are different treatment options that may be used, ranging from medications and exercises.
There is also the option of seeking chiropractic treatment for fibro. Many patients have found that having regular chiropractic sessions that involve spinal adjustments and
massages can help to relieve many of the symptoms of fibro, including pain, soreness and muscle stiffness.
Chiropractic care has seen a high degree of success in reducing symptoms in those with fibromyalgia. The goal is to improve your overall health and wellness through proper nervous system function.
A chiropractor achieves this by realigning your spine, ensuring your brain and the rest of your body can communicate properly — without mixed signals.
Typically, gentle adjustments are used to eliminate dysfunction in the spinal cord and reinstate proper alignment. Further, dealing and finding effective ways to cope with stress in your life has also been shown to reduce pain significantly.
By addressing the core of the problem, you can experience some pain relief from your fibromyalgia symptoms. In fact, many individuals who have fibromyalgia find chiropractic care is an effective and efficient way to manage their pain regularly.
With us, you can rest assured that you are putting your health and wellness in good hands. Ultimately, our goal is to help all of our patients improve their overall fitness and leave our clinic feeling better than when they arrived.

Sciatica
The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body that can become pinched due to injuries or illness. When the sciatic nerve is pinched, it causes pain to radiate from the lower back to the buttocks, legs and feet.
If you're looking for a natural, non-invasive treatment to get relief from sciatica, visit your chiropractor for various treatments and services.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a musculoskeletal disorder that includes symptoms of pain, mood disorders and fatigue. Because fibromyalgia is a condition made up of a wide range of symptoms, it can often be misdiagnosed or overlooked.
For those looking for relief from fibromyalgia symptoms, an integrative approach to pain management can be beneficial. Chiropractic treatments can help alleviate pain, relieve stress and increase your range of motion to gain back your autonomy.
Headaches and Migraines
The cause behind headaches or migraines is often challenging to pinpoint, as sometimes they can seemingly arise out of nowhere. Spinal manipulation can help with tension headaches that originate in the neck.
Forget masking the symptom of headaches with medications that bring on a host of side-effects and take a more holistic approach to your pain management.
Back and Neck Pain
Neck and back pain can put a wrench in your daily life. Get neck and back pain relief without medication, using our chiropractic treatments and massage therapy. Early detection and treatment often mean a shorter rehabilitation process, allowing you to return to your routine sooner.
