Fibromyalgia Treatment Edmonton

As humans, pain can not be exempted but can only be minimized as much as possible when necessary safety practices are adopted both at the home, office, or anywhere. Sometimes, when doing different activities like exercise or house chores, we feel pain, soreness, or muscle tightness. When we have pain, we mostly take pain-relieving medication like ibuprofen to help to relieve it.

Some pain develops and spreads all over our bodies, but when we try using normal self-medication or prescribed pain-relieving drugs, this pain does not disappear but tends to persist for long and affect our everyday life.

You may be having chronic pain together with mood swings, irregular sleep patterns, or fatigue. It might seem like a normal pain, but you may be suffering from a more physiological severe condition referred to as fibromyalgia.

If you have chronic pain together with some underlying symptoms, we urge you to contact Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic to schedule an appointment with an expert from our clinic. We can assure you of quality treatment in order to relieve your pain and eliminate other symptoms.

What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is used to describe a certain combination of symptoms affecting a person. Over the years, the exact cause of fibromyalgia is yet to be scientifically known, but some medical professionals have assumed that it might be a result of an overactive sympathetic nervous system. This system is responsible for flight or fight response in the body.

They further concluded that the first symptom of fibromyalgia is usually developed after a physical or emotionally traumatic event. However, this conclusion is yet to be scientifically backed. In some cases, before suffering from fibromyalgia, symptoms like chronic stress/depression frequently happen with other symptoms. Although, it has been observed that families with fibromyalgia history are liable to have this condition. Also, women are more vulnerable to fibromyalgia than men.

What are the common symptoms of fibromyalgia?

Different factors can cause fibromyalgia. To know if you truly have this condition, visit a physician once you begin to notice these common symptoms;

• Nausea
• Fatigue
• Severe and sharp muscle pain
• Disorientation or forgetfulness
• Tender area of the body
• Difficulty and uncontrollable sleeping conditions
• Frequent mood swing
• Sensitivity to touch/ numbness

How can orthopedic, sports physiotherapy, and massage therapy treat fibromyalgia?

At Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, we use non-invasive, safe, and natural methods to treat fibromyalgia or other problems relating to pains. Every treatment designed by us focuses on providing long-term relief to your problem to live a comfortable life.

It is important to know that fibromyalgia isn’t a disease but only a variety of symptoms. When you come to Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, our orthopedists, sports physiotherapist, and massage therapist will examine your body and physical ability, gather information about your health history and symptoms, and finally have a discussion session with you before developing a special treatment plan based on symptoms and assessment outcome.

You may have been prescribed certain pain medications/anti-depressants to manage your condition, but those medications can only develop a short-term solution. Even in most cases, pain-relieving medications are ineffective for chronic problems like fibromyalgia.

Orthopedic, sports physiotherapy and massage therapy can provide a long-lasting solution to acute and chronic pain. When you arrive at Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, your treatment session will comprise therapeutic exercise, pain-relieving modalities, and manual therapies. According to research published, the report showed that combining cardiovascular exercise with other strengthening activities improves sleep and energy level, modifies mood, and relieves widespread pains. Every session is designed to achieve this without disturbing your overactive sympathetic nervous system.
