Between one and three percent of the population are affected by fibromyalgia, a long-term condition characterized by widespread pain. In line with the latest thinking of fibromyalgia as a disorder of the CNS (central nervous system), the third edition of this book looks at how an over-sensitised system may amplify pain messages and trigger the symptoms of fibromyalgia. It also looks at research into the link between poor sleep and the disorder. Other topics include:
- A physical cause? - the evidence for fine nerve damage in fibromyalgia.
- Sleep problems and management.
- The benefits of yoga and music therapy.
- Updated recommendations on diet and supplements.
- The importance of posture and exercise.
- Pain and stress management.
- Complementary therapies.
