Myofascial Massage for Fibromyalgia

I wanted to take a moment to share some information about Myofascial Therapy, which some people have found helpful in managing chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia. While I don’t have fibromyalgia myself, as a Myofascial Therapist, I’ve worked with individuals dealing with fibromyalgia and various pain-related issues and thought it might be worth mentioning here.

What is Myofascial Therapy?​

Myofascial therapy focuses on relieving tension in the fascia, which is the connective tissue that surrounds muscles. The idea is that by gently releasing tight or restricted areas, it can help alleviate discomfort, reduce stiffness, and increase mobility.

How It Might Help​

Some individuals with fibromyalgia have reported finding relief with Myofascial therapy, particularly in:

• Reducing muscle tightness and improving flexibility

• Easing discomfort from tender spots

• Encouraging relaxation and reducing overall tension

Just Something to Consider​

I know that everyone’s experience with fibromyalgia is different, and not every treatment works for everyone.

Wishing you all peace and relief on your journey.
