What Is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a complex, chronic condition that causes widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and pressure sensitivity. It often coexists with other conditions such as migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), anxiety, or depression. People with fibromyalgia may also experience:

  • “Brain fog” or difficulty concentrating
  • Stiffness, especially in the morning
  • Heightened sensitivity to touch or temperature
  • Trouble exercising or completing daily tasks

Although fibromyalgia does not cause tissue damage, the pain is very real, and physical therapy can help manage it effectively.
