Fibromyalgia

Around 1 in 25 of the UK population has fibromyalgia, a lifelong condition involving widespread musculoskeletal pain and tenderness, fatigue, sleep disturbance and functional impairment, without any known structural or inflammatory cause.

I have seen many patients with fibromyalgia and find acupuncture really effective in treating these symptoms. In general, acupuncture is believed to stimulate the nervous system to release neurochemical messenger molecules which influences the body’s homeostatic mechanisms, thus promoting physical and emotional well-being.
