Dec. 15, 2010 - PRLog -- Bergen County Chiropractor, Dr Peter Ferraro of Ferraro Spine and Rehabilitation, explains how chiropractic care can be tailored to treat the symptoms of fibromyalgia.  According to Dr Ferraro, chiropractic care can keep the spine and muscles from losing mobility, which is essential for reducing the symptoms of fibromyalgia.  In addition to traditional chiropractic adjustments, Ferraro Spine and Rehabilitation can offer fibromyalgia patients additional therapies such as trigger point therapy, acupuncture, and cold laser therapy.

Fibromyalgia is a condition that affects 3-6 million people in the United States, and for unexplained reasons, more than 90% of those who develop this condition are women. This chronic disorder that affects so many includes symptoms such as widespread muscle pain, fatigue, and multiple tender points in the body.

There are many other symptoms associated with this chronic condition, such as sleep disturbances, morning stiffness, headaches, numbness or tingling of the extremities, restless leg syndrome, temperature sensitivity, and even sometimes cognitive and memory problems.

A telltale sign and a major physical abnormality associated with fibromyalgia lies within the muscles themselves. A buildup of protein called “Ground Substance,” which is normally found in the muscle, bone and connective tissue all over the body and helps them to heal, causes the muscle knots symptomatic of fibromyalgia.

“Chiropractic care is a critical treatment for those suffering from this chronic condition,” says Dr Ferraro. “It keeps the spine and muscles mobile, which is essential for fibromyalgia.”

Dr. Ferraro explains that if the spine is adjusted and kept mobile and relaxed, the onset and severity of these symptoms can be greatly decreased. Chiropractic adjustments for fibromyalgia are typically modified to be more gentle for these patients. This prevents the small supporting muscles of the spine from becoming irritated.

Additional Therapies to Treat Fibromyalgia

There are other therapies chiropractic care can offer such as Trigger Point Therapy. With light pressure applied to these trigger points, the patient can feel some relief from these pains. There is also Cold Laser Therapy, which stimulates the tissue healing and decreases the sensations of pain. Ferraro Spine also offers nutritional counseling and custom supplements to help ease the inflammatory response associated with fibromyalgia.
