Chiropractor In Frederick, Dr. Steve Digles, Provides Pain Relief For Fibromyalgia Sufferers
The New Life Chiropractic Center and Dr. Steve Digles DC, Frederick chiropractor offers effective therapeutic measures for alleviating the symptoms of fibromyalgia.
The New Life Chiropractic Center and Dr. Steve Digles DC, Frederick chiropractor, are pleased to announce effective and non-invasive fibromyalgia solutions for local residents. Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease characterized by multiple tender points, muscle pain and fatigue that affects as many as six million people in the U. S. The condition is much more common in women than in men.
According to Digles, "Fibromyalgia is caused by a stress-induced change in metabolism and has a slow, insidious onset, usually beginning in early adulthood." He continues, "The condition is a chronic one, but doesn't cause damage to internal organs, joints or muscles."
Symptoms include pain in all four quadrants of the body, sleep disturbances, headaches, painful menstrual periods and irritable bowel syndrome. Some women experience morning stiffness, restless leg syndrome and cognitive issues.
Therapy consists of nutritional and behavioral changes to relieve stress and improve muscle and nerve function. Individuals with the condition have a protein buildup in the muscles and connective tissues that interferes with the ability to repair itself. Specific therapy is directed at keeping the muscles supple. This might include massage or spinal adjustments to keep the alignment corrected.
