Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by chronic, diffuse musculoskeletal pain, which is associated with other symptoms such as fatigue, cognitive and sleep disorders, skin hypersensitivity, sensation of swelling or numbness, cold intolerance, symptoms in the temporomandibular joint, urinary and digestive symptoms, among others.

Although the pain is located in structures such as tendons, ligaments and muscles, There is no evidence of inflammation in these tissues in laboratory or imaging tests.This is why fibromyalgia has been questioned as an organic problem, and for a long time it has been considered a psychosomatic disorder.

Recent studies indicate that Fibromyalgia is a disorder of pain regulation at the brain level, so it could be classified within the central sensitization syndromes.

To have effective results in symptom relief and improved quality of life, is necessary in approach global and integrative, that regulate the nervous system and restore homeostasis and body balance.

In the Advanced Integrative Physiotherapy Consultation, we have developed a own methodology for the treatment of patients with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue. It is the result of several years of study and experience treating these patients. Fibromyalgia has no cure, but Patients improve significantly, when subjected to a treatment protocol that regulates the neuro-musculoskeletal system, through techniques of the clinical posturology, techniques of neurobiomodulation that regulate the central and peripheral nervous system and techniques aimed at vagus nerve.

In addition to the techniques for regulating the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system, which have a generalized effect on hypersensitivity and all symptoms of Central Sensitivity Syndrome, we apply techniques of treatment according to the specific complaints of each patient, specialized techniques to relieve symptoms such as overactive bladder, sensation of cystitis or pain in the pelvic area.

Other patients may present Symptoms in the TMJ (temporomandibular joint) area, headache and tension in the shoulder girdle, whereby specific pain relief techniques are applied to that area.
In each consultation, several treatment techniques are applied that reinforce each other. Some of the techniques used for the local treatment of dysfunctions and pain are: high power laser, the dry needling, the neuromuscular bands, the electrostimulation, myofascial, therapeutic ultrasound, among others, depending on the symptoms and the assessment made of each patient.

Patients with Fibromyalgia invariably present postural alterations, due to the malfunction of the postural captors, which gives them higher proportion to suffer degenerative processes such as osteoarthritis and myofascial pain. Therefore, it is Evaluate and correct postural alterations, by regulating the postural captors: foot, eye, dysmetria, dental occlusion and scars. In this way we avoid mechanical overload on the muscles and joints.

Additionally, they can be prescribed immunological analysis that determine the levels of basal histamine, the food sensitivity and the intestinal permeability, which are determining factors to be able to regulate the system neuroimmunoendocrine of these patients and guide us when prescribing the appropriate supplementation in each case.
