Many people in the world have to deal with fibromyalgia and its painful symptoms. There’s no specific cause that’s linked to whether or not an individual will experience fibromyalgia symptoms, but it’s often related to a traumatic experience or significant surgery.

Those suffering from fibromyalgia may experience some or all of the following symptoms:

  • Mood disorders
  • Chronic pain across entire body
  • Fatigue
  • Memory impairment
  • Irregular bowel movements
  • Sleep apnea
  • And more

Everyone who deals with fibromyalgia and its symptoms has various methods of managing or reducing the pain or intensity of the symptoms. Medication is usually the go-to option for many, but it may not always be the most effective solution. Thankfully, there are other alternatives.

Many overlook the healing and pain management benefits of Lithia Springs chiropractic care. Once someone understands the purpose of chiropractic care, it often becomes a regular part of their routine for managing pain and dealing with other health symptoms they are experiencing. It’s also a common measure that many take for proactively improving their overall health and wellness.

Managing Pain with Medication Doesn’t Get to the Root of the Pain

Medication may be an important component to managing pain for a lot of people. In extreme situations, medication is useful when you’re in a pinch to reduce the pain. However, the issue with medication is that it’s only a temporary solution. It doesn’t actually heal an individual or provide actual recovery from the source of the symptoms or pain. It just masks the symptoms and makes you feel better without actually improving the function of your body.

Chiropractic Care Helps Alleviate Nerve Interference

Dr. Ronnie Bolar at Vital Life Chiropractic helps people suffering from fibromyalgia pain deal with the source of the symptoms with fibromyalgia, rather than recommending medication to temporarily mask the pain. Lithia Springs chiropractic care is so effective because chiropractic focuses on the root of the issue and seeks to correct it rather than just covering up the symptoms.

An individual’s spine can become misaligned from various movements, accidents or traumas, or simply poor posture. This causes nerve interference between the brain and other parts of the body. When the nerves around the spine are interfered with or communication is disrupted, it can prevent the body from healing, can make it hard for the body to naturally reduce pain, and can cause other types of pain related to fibromyalgia and other ailments.

Through the expertise of a Lithia Springs chiropractor, you can have your spine adjusted, which can help to prevent interference within the body’s nervous system. In many cases, symptoms or pain of fibromyalgia is lessened to more tolerable levels with regular chiropractic care. The effectiveness of chiropractic adjustments increases with recurring visits to the chiropractor.

A case study focused on a 64-year-old woman who had issues with fibromyalgia pain for 6 years, experiencing symptoms of irregular bowel movements, low energy levels, sleep apnea, and other related symptoms. After beginning chiropractic care, in just three months she saw a decrease in her fibromyalgia symptoms.
