Endermology works wonders!
It takes several visits and is a painful process but it helps. Check with
insurance company as some companies cover this procedure and some don’t. It is a deep tissue massage.

First of all, get to a doctor and get a diagnosis to make sure that is what you have. Most MDs and other health professionals are very sympathetic these days. There are other reasons sometimes for the symptoms. After that, I have heard that Emotional Freedom Techniques may help, also Therapeutic Touch. Then there is hypnotism, Reiki, etc. Find a URL on the subject. The web is full of information

There are massage therapists who specialize in treating people with fibromyalgia. It’s offered to us as a continuing education class. Call some massage therapists in the yellow pages, someone will be able to refer you. It isn’t a "pleasant" treatment, not like a regular massage but from what I hear from fellow therapists who do it, it works. It may take several treatments for you to feel relief.
You can also check out "www.abmp.com", it’s the Association of Massage and Bodywork Professionals, they have a "search for a therapist" , it may help you find someone in your area. Also "www.amta.com", another professional association with a search link.

Have you tried any energy treatment?
In energy therapy, every disease is generated by some disturbance within your bodies energy, so if you believe that, or care to give it a try, any energy therapy would be a good try. I know it may sound unrealistic, but you’ll never know if you don’t try it!
I recommend reiki. It can help you realize why are you really sick and give you the strength to heal yourself.

I know that raising Glutathione levels helps with fibromyalgia. Glutathione is a molecule found and produced in every cell of the body. It is responsible for the proper functioning of the immune system, detoxification, recycling of antioxidants and several other things. In a nutshell, Glutathione is the first line defense against diseases and keeps our immune system in tip-top shape. Do research on Glutathione.
God bless

Seven years ago I was diagnosed Fibromyalgia. Started with RSI, frozen shoulders, etc.
Five years ago I came in contact with some nutritional supplements. It turned my world around. Now I have my own practice on this item and I am working again every day with pleasure. If you want to know more, send me an email direct, so I can help you fight this state of mind.

Doing consistent deep tissue massage for people w/fibromyalgia is wonderful. It should be done on a "good" day, however, as it is impossible to work deep on a not so good day.

I know chiropractors have pretty good success with patients suffering from fibromyalgia. Nutritionally, a combination of magnesium and malic acid supplementation is often beneficial.
