Multidisciplinary approach in management of fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is located inmuscle, tendon, ligament and joint. Fibromyalgia is a condition that is characterized by a widespread
of musculoskeletal pain that is accompanied by joint pain, fatigue, tenderness in localized areas. Other symptoms include
headache, sleep disturbance, anxiety, depression and mood issues. Some studies suggest that people with fibromyalgia perceive
pain different from non-fibromyalgia individuals. This condition is difficult to assess and manage due to its complexity and
relation to other conditions. Part of management of fibromyalgia includes thorough assessment which includes patient history
and physical examination. Multidisciplinary approach to treatment of Fibromyalgia includes chiropractic, manual therapy,
massage, exercises, acupuncture. This is a literature review that examines different non-pharmaceutical methods of managing
fibromyalgia, effectiveness and the limitations of the individual disciplinary management. The review will comment on the
recommendations for further treatments including outcome measures and multidisciplinary approach to management.
