Fibromyalgia
WHAT IS FIBROMYALGIA?
Fibromyalgia is a pain syndrome with symptoms of muscle, joint and tissue pain at multiple sites. Often this involves the myofascia, a connective tissue throughout the body. Some of the most frequent symptoms are:
The forming of muscular trigger points (TP) in the muscles. These TPs produce pain and refer pain to various sites in the body.
Two examples:
CHRONIC FATIGUE

Subclinical low thyroid function is common. With this condition a person feels exhausted frequently, weather sensitive, has rough and dry skin and may carry excess weight which he or she cannot lose.

The good News
Dr. Straile has found that Fibromyalgia is a chronic stress syndrome. These stressors cause neurological dysfunctions. One of the most common and overlooked stressors are food allergies.These allergies are very stressfull to the body. Eating will make you tired instead of giving you energy. Sleeping will leave you tired instead of re-energized.
Al this often can be corrected with a very successful new technique called NAET.
