Patients suffering from fibromyalgia are benefited immensely after undergoing myotherapy. Tender spots are formed in various parts of the body in fibromyalgia. These are hypersensitive to touch, and cause pain. A myotherapist will identify the roots of muscular pain. Half the battle is won if the root that is responsible for the pain and limited muscle movement is identified. Pressure is then applied on the trigger points to relieve the pain. The patient is instructed to perform certain exercises to stretch and stimulate the muscle. Exercises produce certain chemicals in our muscle fibers that increase our pain threshold. The myotherapist passively stretches the affected muscles. The muscles are reeducated to return to their normal state. The exercises are patient specific.
Myotherapy is a noninvasive technique that reduces or eliminates pain totally in patients suffering fibromyalgia.
