5- Consider Acupuncture for Pain Management
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese type of therapy that involves the use of tiny needles deliberately positioned. Despite this, it is minimally invasive, causes little to no pain, and tries to stimulate parts of the body with abundant nerve supply in order to enhance blood circulation, which helps to manage pain.
Some fibromyalgia sufferers chose this therapy primarily for pain relief. Acupuncture for pain management is also supported by scientific research, with one study indicating that acupuncture is helpful and safe and should be prescribed for people experiencing symptoms.
This study concluded that “acupuncture was more successful in alleviating pain in both the short and long term compared with conventional medicine. There were no significant adverse events observed during acupuncture.”
Choose a therapist who has demonstrated experience working with fibromyalgia patients.
