Relieve Your Pain Through Massage
Many people in the US today suffer from chronic pain, headaches and exhaustion but do not know the cause. Not only is the physical pain difficult to manage, but the mental toll can also be an intense burden.
What are the Symptoms of Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a musculoskeletal condition that causes chronic, widespread pain in the body. It can also cause tension headaches and exhaustion. In more severe cases, it can leave its patients in bed for days. Other symptoms include mood swings, memory problems, and gastrointestinal problems such as nausea and bloating. It is also known to affect women more than men. There are multiple symptoms associated with Fibromyalgia. Read details on the Nation Fibromyalgia Association website.
Unfortunately, there is no physical evidence of the condition, making it difficult for doctors to treat or cure it. Due to the lack of physical findings, it is considered a psychosomatic condition, meaning they believe the cause is not physical. If you would like more information on the believed causes of fibromyalgia, go to Mayo Clinic.
The stress fibromyalgia brings on is just as damaging as the problem itself. Stress has been known to cause tension in the muscles, which strains the nerves and tissues. When any of these lack oxygen, it causes more irritation, and the condition will steadily get worse. Despite all the complications, fibromyalgia is not a disease but a treatable syndrome. Most doctors prescribe pain and relaxation medications to try to ease the symptoms but do not address the root of the problem.
What Helps Fibromyalgia Naturally?
It’s so interesting to read about what doctors of fibromyalgia are saying about opioid-based medications. According to the American Massage Therapy Association, massage therapy has been proven to aid in the pain of fibromyalgia and provide constant and lasting relief to those who maintain a good regimen with their therapist. However, not all massage therapists have the appropriate knowledge to address the tender points of Fibromyalgia. At Heavenly Embrace Massage & Wellness, we have the training and experience to effectively provide you with natural relief from your Fibromyalgia pain. Though the pain is all over the body, the nerves in these three areas are the main source of discomfort.
The 18 Tender Points for Fibromyalgia
By massaging these areas, the therapist will bring oxygen back to the muscles and tissues, allowing for relaxation and relief from pain. It is not only the body that will benefit, the ease will give a peace of mind that allows relaxation for the mind and soul as well. Self-care is not just about taking care of a source of stress but bringing wellness to the person as a whole. It will help with all aspects of life each day that much easier.
We will customize your massage to carefully address these Fibromyalgia Pain Points and ensure your treatment is enjoyable but also effective in providing relief after your treatment. You can book online here or contact us today. I would advise a Deep Tissue Massage or Swedish Treatment.
Far Infrared Sauna Therapy Reduces Chronic Pain
Pain is an important symptom designed to alert us to problems in our body. Chronic pain is virtually always associated with chronic inflammation.
In addition to reducing inflammation, far infrared therapy improves chronic lower back pain, chronic neck pain, phantom limb pain, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, menstrual pain, osteoarthritis, and chronic tension headaches.
