Relief from Fibromyalgia
What our fibromyalgia patients have to say about treatment at Potomac Pan Center - Chiropractic & Physical Therapy:
I have had fibromyalgia for thirty years and for most of that time I endured intense, relentless, merciless pain. I thought my life would be nothing but debilitating pain, and thought I was essentially disabled in my thirties. Thanks to the treatment I received at PPC C+PT, I was able to carry thirteen pounds of baby (very healthy twins) without fibromyalgia pain, and now spend my days lifting two 35+ pound children without pain. I saw about thirty different chiropractors and physical therapists for my fibromyalgia and none of them helped me. If I would have found PPC C+PT earlier, my entire personal and professional life would have been different. Now, I am a married to Dr. Paul Abosh, and I know that he can help you with your fibromyalgia pain. - Jessica White


How Does Potomac Pain Center - Chiropractic & Physical Therapy work with Fibromyalgia patients?
Chiropractic care is critical for those who suffer from fibromyalgia in order to keep the spine and muscles from losing too much movement. Because fibromyalgia causes the muscles to tighten up and lose some of their natural pliability, it results in a global loss of movement in the spine. The loss of movement in the spine results in a neurological reflex that causes the muscles to tighten further. This vicious cycle will continue and over time will lead to increased pain, increased muscle tightness, a loss of movement, more difficulty sleeping and the development of more and more trigger points.
The only option is to continually adjust the spine and keep it moving. It is not uncommon for those with fibromyalgia to be adjusted three to four times per month to keep everything mobile and relaxed.
Fibromyalgia can be difficult to treat. Not all doctors are familiar with fibromyalgia and its treatment, so it is important to visit Potomac Pain Center where our chiropractors specialize in treating fibromyalgia patients. Fibromyalgia treatment often requires a team approach, utilizing chiropractic treatment, trigger point therapy, massage, dietary changes, as well as exercises and stretching.
