Fibromyalgia treatment IN IDAHO FALLS
Fibromyalgia Disorders
Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes pain all over the body. According to the CDC, the condition affects over 4 million US adults — about 2% of the population. The cause of the condition is unknown, but it may be triggered by trauma, infection, injury, surgery, chronic stress, and some conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Physical therapy focuses on reducing pain and stiffness and improving flexibility and range of motion.
Effective Fibromyalgia Treatment
Fibromyalgia is a complex condition and the symptoms can manifest in different forms. If left untreated, the pain can make your everyday tasks difficult to do. To minimize the flare-ups, you may avoid productive activities and this could lead to lower physical fitness and quality of life.
Physical therapy can be an effective treatment to manage fibromyalgia. Various exercises and techniques are applied to manage the pain, reduce fatigue, and improve mobility for a better quality of life.
