It is estimated that more than 5 million Americans ages 18 and older suffer from fibromyalgia. While 80 to 90 percent of those diagnosed with fibromyalgia are women, men and children can also have this disorder.
My goal with this special report is to give you the knowledge of what this condition is all about, what the root causes are, and how to alleviate the symptoms and treat the problem holistically! I am an Osteopathic Physician with training in conventional and natural medicine. I have over 25 years of experience helping patients with this condition.
Fibromyalgia is the name given to chronic, widespread muscular pain that has no obvious cause. The pain – usually described as aching, stiff, burning, or throbbing – may appear in any location of the body, but for a diagnosis of fibromyalgia to be made you must have pain in at least 11 of 18 specific “tender points.” The pain from tender points and elsewhere in the body usually feels most severe upon waking and gradually lessens as the day goes on.
