Fibromyalgia

At One Source Integrative Medicine we employ a more personalized, patient centered, whole person approach to healthcare, rather than a conventional, one size fits all, disease oriented focus.

Overview

Have you recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia?

Or have you been in chronic pain for quite some time and are ready to get back to feeling better? An integrative session with us might just be what you need for overall wellness. Here's what you should know about integrative therapies for managing fibromyalgia.

What is Fibromyalgia?

As a chronic illness, fibromyalgia is long-lasting and causes widespread pain to your joints and muscles. Patients with fibromyalgia also experience:

Unusual bouts of fatigue
Numbness in the hands and feet
Anxiety and depression
Problems with focus and concentration
Irritable bowel syndrome
Trouble falling asleep

Symptoms of fibromyalgia differ from one patient to the next. Some may also have a condition known as abnormal pain perception processing, where pain from injuries or other causes may be more pronounced than in people without it.

What Are the Benefits of Integrated Treatments for Fibromyalgia?

There are multiple benefits to undergoing an integrative approach to managing your symptoms of fibromyalgia. As we've already mentioned, each patient experiences fibromyalgia differently, and an individualized approach works best in maintaining your overall levels of wellness.

Integrative medicine is typically non-invasive and does not involve the use of narcotics. An integrated approach looks at patients as a whole being, which, in addition to the physical, includes their spiritual and emotional bodies. Other common benefits may include:

Enhanced quality of life
Effective pain management
Improvements to focus and concentration
Decrease in stress and anxiety
Decrease in medication usage
Improvements to the quality of sleep
