“…One of the main reasons why FM patients seek medical care is musculoskeletal pain, along with sleep disorders [25]. As observed in the present study, after the intervention, pain decreased significantly based on the EVA scale.…”

“…In terms of the benefits of manual therapy for patients, it promotes restful sleep, decreases anxiety and depression, and reduces the immediate and delayed perception of pain [25,26]. Regarding number of sessions, it is suggested to do at least 1-2 times per week [26], although the reason why this should be 2 and not a greater or lesser number of sessions is not clear.…”

“…Randomised controlled trials have shown that multiple nonpharmacological treatments such as psychotherapy, exercise therapy, education, and physiotherapy are effective in the reduction of FM symptoms [24]. The main causes for patients to seek medical care are musculoskeletal pain and sleep disorders [25]. Patients often seek relief from their symptoms [26].…”

Fibromyalgia is a condition characterised by chronic widespread muscle pain and fatigue, sleep disturbances, cognitive disorders, and mood disturbance. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a manual therapy technique performed with moderate digital pressure in women with fibromyalgia (n = 24). In this randomised, controlled trial, the participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group or placebo group. The experimental group was assisted with manual therapy sessions based on connective tissue massage, whereas the placebo group was “treated” with ultrasound sessions performed without conductive gel and with the machine turned off as the placebo. Fatigue severity scale (FSS), visual analogical scale (VAS), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), and profile of mood states (POMS-29) were completed before and after the intervention. In the experimental group (manual therapy), significant results were obtained on a VAS scale, referring to the neck pain in patients with fibromyalgia (p < 0.001). Correlations showed a relationship between fatigue and sleep variables (R = 0.411; p = 0.046) and pain variables with the POMS anger-hostility subscale (R = 0.436; p = 0.033). Although the size of the sample could be a limitation, the study concluded that the application of manual therapy in fibromyalgia patients performed with moderate pressure for 15 min on the posterior cervical musculature decreased the perception of pain, muscle fatigue, and the state of tension-anxiety.

“…At present, there are no medications with FM-specific approval in Europe, and therapies are focused on the relief of symptoms and improvement of quality of life and functioning (Macfarlane et al, 2017). Nonpharmacological interventions, such as physical exercise (Bidonde et al, 2017) and cognitive behavioural therapy (Bernardy et al, 2018), have provided evidence-based benefits (García et al, 2018) and are recommended by guidelines (Macfarlane et al, 2017).…”

“…Recent reviews have exposed rehabilitation techniques, such as massage, myofascial release or acupuncture or multidisciplinary rehabilitation as yielding benefits at short and long term in function and multidisciplinary rehabilitation at intermediate term in pain ( 7 , 8 ). Clinical practice guidelines consider physical exercise and cognitive-behavioral therapy as the best non-pharmacological interventions ( 9 ). Exercise yields functional and pain improvement at short and intermediate term ( 8 ).…”

The Therapeutic Effects of Whole-Body Vibration in Patients With Fibromyalgia. A Randomized Controlled Trial

et al. 2021

Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disease with few effective therapeutic options. We evaluated the efficacy of a 12-weeks therapy program that involves the use of whole body vibration in patients with fibromyalgia. The experimental group (N = 20 patients) participated in a neuromuscular training with a rotational whole body vibration platform for 12 weeks. The control group (N = 20 patients) received no physiotherapy treatment. The following variables were assessed before, after and 3 months after the therapy program: Fibromyalgia impact questionnaire, pain intensity, quality of life, sensitivity measurements (pressure pain thresholds, vibration thresholds), motor function tasks (Berg scale, 6-min walk test, isometric back muscle strength), and static and dynamic balance. We found improvements in the indexes of functional disability, static equilibrium and vibration sensitivity and a reduction of pain sensitivity. Our results showed that the intervention group improved almost all parameters immediately after the therapy program, in contrast to the control group that showed no changes. These improvements were not maintained in the follow-up. The whole body vibration therapy can be an effective therapy in patients with fibromyalgia and it can improve symptomatology and quality of life in these patients.
