The extra stress placed on these muscles, ligaments and joints becomes a vicious cycle and continues to feed on these stresses and become worse as time goes on. Spinal manipulation to correct these imbalances will be the most effective way to treat the condition, and can be very effective in alleviating symptoms of fibromyalgia. As you can see there are many ways to help those with fibromyalgia, but it is the individual who must take the responsibility to help them. They must try to control any stressful situations, both emotional and physical. Such stresses can exacerbate symptoms.
Lack of sleep is one of the most common symptoms of fibromyalgia.
Therefore it is necessary to examine the sleeping habits and make corrections where necessary. Do not sleep on the stomach. Sleep on your back, using a proper pillow that will give the necessary support to your head and neck. Do not keep your shoulders on the pillow. Also use a proper leg cushion that will support the legs helping in the relaxation of the entire body.
