According to Statistics Canada, nearly a million Canadians suffer from fibromyalgia, a chronic condition affecting your bones and muscles.

Despite the frequency with which this condition occurs, and the amount of research that goes into it, there is no cure. And on top of this, it tends to be frequently misdiagnosed.

However, there are naturopathic treatments available for fibromyalgia that can make it easier to live with this potentially debilitating disease.

What Is Fibromyalgia?

We aren’t entirely sure what causes fibromyalgia yet, but there is research that suggests a link between it and how your brain processes pain signals up your spinal cord, and with impaired cellular function.

Certain people are more at risk for fibromyalgia though, including those with:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • PTSD
  • Arthritis
  • A history of abuse or past trauma

Certain genetic and lifestyle factors are at play as well. Women contract fibromyalgia at higher rates, and if you have a family history of fibromyalgia you are at higher risk as well. Finally, those who rarely exercise seem to be at great risk.

The most common symptom associated with fibromyalgia is general aches and pains all over your body.

More specific symptoms include:

  • Chronic fatigue
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Low threshold for pain
  • Burning sensation in muscles
  • Muscle tightness or twitching
  • Insomnia
  • Anxiousness, depression, or worry
  • Headaches
  • GI issues, including diarrhea, constipation, bloating, nausea, or pain
  • Dry nose, eyes, or mouth
  • Numbness in extremities
  • Sensitivity to temperature or sounds

Naturopathic IV Therapy For Fibromyalgia

The fatigue, pain, and depression from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia are real, and they have a cause.

More importantly, help is available.

Dr. JJ takes a comprehensive approach that has the potential to reverse these conditions, alleviating pain, increasing energy, and boosting immunity.

People suffering with fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue are believed to have impaired cellular function—particularly in the way muscle cells handle calcium and phosphate. This, in turn, stimulates painful contractions and muscle spasms.

To address these problems, a full regimen of therapies, including IV doses of B vitamins, magnesium, vitamin C, amino acids and other nutrients may be administered to boost energy, improve tissue repair and relieve stress.
