Scientific Proof to How your Body react to Acupuncture - Fibromyalgia

Regular sessions of Acupuncture will manage and treat Fibromyalgia effectively.


Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and is often accompanied by fatigue, sleep difficulties, cognitive dysfunction, depressed mood and episodes.

Currently fibromyalgia is managed through a multidimensional approach that includes patient education, pain management, exercise, behavioral therapy. However, the effect size for most treatments is relatively modest and all pharmacological therapies are only weak recommendations for fibromyalgia.

There are different types of non pharmacological interventions for fibromyalgia and acupuncture is a significant component of the non pharmacological interventions. The analgesic effects of acupuncture are known to activate peripheral and central pain control systems through the release of various endogenous opioids and non opioid compounds. Clinical studies of acupuncture therapy for fibromyalgia have showed promising results that acupuncture is effective in management of fibromyalgia.


Conclusion: Acupuncture therapy is an effective and safe treatment for patients with fibromyalgia, and this treatment can be recommended for the management of fibromyalgia.

 
 

Conclusion:  Acupuncture can lead to long-term improvements on clinical outcomes and pain neuromediator values. Changes in serum serotonin and substance P levels may be a valuable explanation for acupuncture mechanisms in fibromyalgia treatment.

Conclusion: Electroacupuncture can reverse the central sensitization of the TRPV1-ERK signalling pathway in the mouse brain. Thus, there is mechanistic evidence supporting the potential therapeutic efficacy of electroacupuncture for treating fibromyalgia pain.
